Doesn't the AK-47, in its standard configuration, have an effective range for a single point target of over 400 meters for semi-auto fire? It's not great for a rifle but let's face it, when it comes to home defense I can not imagine the AK-47's accuracy being an issue.

 

@BasilZero

The average hunting rifle has about double the stopping power of an AK-47 and has an effective range advantage for a point target of about 200 - 400 meters.

If you're shooting in an average sized room, no. Of course even any decent handgun will give you all the accuracy you need.

Of course if you're shooting an AK in an average sized room, I'm assuming you're not actually living within city limits. The only people that should be firing rifle rounds within an American city should be trained SWAT/LEO.
