Is an AK47 enough to kill a T-Rex?

Ok, I was visiting another forum and saw this semi interesting thread...

1 man with an AK + 1 clip at a range of about 30 yards and rapidly closing as it runs toward you. Would it be enough?

His answer --> I assume yes if you get enough headshots before it gets to you.

My answer--> I will vote no

Discuss?

I play Counterstrike: Source, so I am experienced with an AK 47, and getting headshots.

I can also bunny-hop my way away from trouble.

The only thing that could go wrong is a Blue Screen of Death.

i'd say no. i don't think the bullets could penetrate the skin and skull deep enough with 1 clip. and who could really aim a AK with a T-Rex running at you? i mean come on..i'd be terrified

The last T-REX I killed in my backyard was with my Barret 50cal. It took me just one clean headshot.

2 taps from a .45 with excellent shot placement worked for me. Even I was amazed at how easy it was. You will not find any T-Rex in my back yard.

Nope. Ak47 would not penetrate. A .50cal prolly would do the job tho.
