If he wants to shoot for accuracy, AR. If he wants a reliable plinker or bug-out gun, AK.
Having said that, my AR has been very reliable. But if the SHTF, I will pull out the FAL.

95 Trooper with a buncha stuff nobody here cares about...
Never fired a true AK, but I fire an SKS (AK's grandaddy) on occasion with my friend who owns one. That thing is a tank. Not very accurate and clunky, but absolutely reliable and very easy to maintain. I totally enjoy my M4 and it has never failed me. As accurate as I want it to be and cheaper to fire than the AK. Maintenance is a bit more time consuming, but that's a fair trade off to me.
