Elgb's "GOD WILLS IT!" EDGES!!!

Melee: While the Ka Bar is one of the best designed knives in today's military, the kalash bayonet is more practical. There are models of ka bar that can be utilized as bayonets, but the ones that the Talibans are using were designed to be actual bayonets. They can be easily attached to a rifle to turn it into a spear, and can be easily taken off if its needed for clsoe quarters. EDGE: Taliban

Pistol: LMAO no. There's no way a puny .22 long rifle Ruger will be superior to a Tokarev, or any pistol for that matter. The .22 long rifle bullet is a civilian cartridge, and by far one of the worst bullets still in production today. The Tokarev's spitzer bullet still holds a marvelous reputation to this day, capable of penetrating some body armor, while you  can't rely on a .22 LR to even kill a medium-sized dog. EDGE: Taliban

SMG: Again, there's no contest between pitting a miltiary firearm to a civilian one. The Mac-10 is cool and all since its smaller and more compact and it has a silencer, but its no match agaisnt the PPs-42 that's got that useful shoulder stock, a more penetrative round and a larger magazine. Its basically comparing an actual submachine gun and a puny inferior "machine pistol". EDGE: Taliban

Rifle: Converting a G3 rifle into full auto is a big no no. The rifle's 7.62 NATO bullet is not designed to be used for assault rifles, especially on a converted "battle rifle". That would just make it a clumsy and uncontrollable automatic rifle with an inferior 20-round magazine. The Ak-47 is the one that was designed to be an actual assaut rifle, and you can count on this grandpa as a more reliable automatic rifle any day. EDGE: Taliban

Special: This is a tough one. The shotgun is a great weapon for close quarters but besides that, its 5-round tubular magazine and pump action will be ripped apart by modern automatic weapons. The RPG on the other hand is one shot and is riskier to use, but it is capable of blowing up cover and causing psycholoical attacks. Hard to decide, so its an even for me. EDGE: Even

Deadliest Warrior?

Yup no contest. While some of the Covenant's members were former soldiers, the Taliban are a hardwired group of terrorists who's gone toe-to-toe with the militaries of today's superpowers. Why I am a Muslim, I still hate the Taliban and all the other Islamic terrorists with every fiber of my being, I have to hesitantly give the edge to the Taliban due to better weapons and experience. This is basically pitting a civilian militant group who surrendered the moment they got cornered, and a terrorist group who has stubbornly been fighting a stupid war for decades now.
