AK-type pros and cons?

[someR1]

I think you should be forever banned from shooting an AK

To the OP, you'll have more enjoyment from your AK if you don't focus so much on the finish. Arsenal or a converted Saiga are some of the best options, but these are beater work truck style firearms, not luxury sedans. Expecting otherwise is a bit foolish, no offense. The gun design's sole purpose is to win wars for Soviet Russia, and do it cheaply, not win beauty contests.

I stained my wood with Rit-Dye, and she's a sexy red head !

Now I think you are infringing on this ak discussion with you AR antics. We can go to the range any day and keep shooting til one of our guns jam loser pays for all ammo I will bring a bulgarian ak74 you pick any ar you have.

go with either wasr, vector, any from henderson, or arsenal. i prefer the 5.45 over the 7.62 due to more accuracy(not by much) but the 7.62 does hit harder, and a lot easier to find but who cares thats why there is the internet to buy a lot of ammo

I'm not talking about gold plating it, I'd just rather have something a little stronger and solvent resistant than the paint or enamel or whatever they come with. Why doesn't anyone just parkerize 'em and leave 'em at that?

Yes it is like a Candy land of guns and other toys it is hard not to blow all of your weekly paycheck on something cool that came in that week .Yesterday we got in a shipment of FN Tactical Police Shotguns at a liquidation price of $450 & each employe snagged one before we could even get them in the system. It is adicitve like Gun Crack but legal .

Its bad when you are your own best customer. LOL

I heard Saigas were parkered under the paint.

DEAL

('cept I don't have an AR at this particular moment... can I put black furniture and picatinny rails on an AK and call it an AR?)

Get a Saiga from Arms of America, great people to deal with, mine was shipped super fast. I think I got it when it was $329 hehe.

Get a Saiga in .308.
East to convert yourself, and it's accurate too. :O

Yeah, I'll probably start with a Saiga, I mean, I see my future self with multiple AK's in the safe. Nobody told me guns would be addictive I'll almost certainly buy through PRK arms here in Fresno tho. You gotta support the local freedom fighters and they have great prices too.
