Both are very powerful, But the AK47 is more. The m16 has better accuracy tho.
There is no one answer- it depends on the rifle. They are generally less powerful than a full size battle rifle cartridge. The M16 rifle uses a 5.56mm bullet, the AK47 a 7.62mm bullet, etc.
no
An AK47 or Kalashnikov ( excuse my spelling ) followed by the m16
m4,m16,ak47
Noop. an M16 fires a 5.56mm (or .223 caliber) bullet. A .45 caliber shoots a bullet that is ~11.43mm.
5.56
You get the ak47 or m16 or glock and shoot the eagle in the groin

In terms of most magazines on popular models such as the m16, m4, ak47, etc... yes.
A lot of that depends on if you have proper ammunition for the target. But for close range, open areas, or inside buildings, it is pretty decent. Its best quality is the accuracy. It is less powerful than the AK47, but much more accurate. For urban fighting, an AK47 with its heavy punch and penetrating power is better, but an M16 is very flexible and does decent in many situations, including longer ranges where an AK47 would be horribly inaccurate
Noop. There are some manufacturers that can machine a barrel/chamber to fire any specific round, but in general, no. The AK-47 shoots a 7.62mm bullet that has a case 39mm long, while The M-16 shoots a 5.56mm bullet that has a case that is 45mm long.
