I would think it's more of a question of the range you're fighting at. I'm sure both of those guys were good shots, but the AK apparently just isn't as accurate by design.
Whenever I hear about these big firefights in Iraq/Afghanistan I wonder how much of an edge we're getting with our rifles. Granted training is also a big thing but if their marksman is only half as accurate as your marksman because of the physical characteristics of the gun, they're going to suffer a lot more in open terrain.
