I have been looking for an AK for about 3 weeks and i cannot decide on any of them, everybody tells me something different :shakehead: Romanian, Bulgarian Yugo, Russian which one, i really don't want to spend a whole lot i think 600-700 would get me something decent, well a least that is what i think.

What do you guys think, which is the best ak out there that is not too freaking expensive:D

Have you ever had any problems with the Romanian, i have not seen any 400 ak in my side of the woods, the cheapest one is like 579 or something like that...

I was looking at this one on gunbroker but again i don't know how good they are

I have put sevral thousand rounds through mine with every kinda ammo i could find from wolf to remington to hornady and it has never tried to jam.
but i think i have cleaned it a couple times :lol:
the gun shop i hang out in and buy from has them for $399.95 to the public

That is one thing that almost everyone agrees with, i was leaning towards the Yugo, i think that would be the lucky one :p

I too chose to go with the traditional AK47 … and the plain-Jane Romanian has been nothing less than blast to shoot!
