The AK is one of the worst for debris ingestion. That receiver and cover allow way too many things to get in there, and is one of the most dead trigger susceptible designs out there.
I've always loved the cocking handle location on the FAL, as well as the MP44.
Does that mean that you like the side charging uppers that still use the T-shaped charging handle as a backup? rather than the ones that eliminate it?
