Ak ?

[nature boy]

ok guys I’m going to buy my first ak I have plenty of high end firearms but I want to be sure I like the platform before investing big money. So where do I start? u boys tell me keep it under a $1000. Thanks

My votes on a romanian parts build or SAR. Awesome rifles and great reputation for the money. Not too fancy. Not junk.

Get a wasr. That will get you into or out of AKs.

A mid to low end AK is almost as good as a very top end AK

Actually, the cheapest AK is almost as good as a very top end AK

+1 to everything above. Whether you go WASR, SAR-1, RH10, or find a surplus Romy G kit, Romanian AKs are affordable, reliable, and solid. Just how I like my women.

If you don't go Romy, don't go American either for your first AK. It'll leave you lusting for the real thing.

Imports or bust...

WASR RI1805-N, a couple of E. German mags, couple of Yugo mags, couple of Romanian mags, and a case of 7.62x39 for $200 will land you just under $1k on the new market for something that works. May need to hit it with a file or tad bit of tweaking. If you take a liking your budget will get another "0" added to that initial figure.

I wonder if Romania understands how heavily they have influenced and sustained the AK scene in America?

Buy WASR or at least buy something NOT made in USA.

I loved my SAR1.

Exactly. You can buy something built in US from surplus parts and be fine, but anything 100% US made is sure to give you problems of some sort.

Have always like the Polish and Yugoslavian variants.

If you wanna change anything on it and like late nights and cursing get a yugo or a saiga.

If a 120-pound peasant with beet-stained teeth managed to handle it, I know our boy @nature boy will be just fine. AKs rock, wooo!

When you decide to sell it, let's talk.

I’ve got an old WASR. There is nothing nice, refined, slick, smooth, or anything about it. But it shoots. And shoots and shoots and shoots.

I’ve considered selling it a few times as I rarely really “run it”. It’s a “have you ever shot an AK before?” gun that I keep around.

I say all that to say this: if all you want is a work horse that goes bang, then a WASR is good to go.

Not happening just ordered one from my ffl. Thanks guys I’ll let you commi bastards know if I like the platform. If not I’ll buy a 1000 rounds and put it in the safe.
