To AK or not to AK. I have to AsK and hope there is no ARguing.

[Jarine88]

I don’t need one. I have a Troy Defense AR-15. I have an AR-10 in .308 with a second upper in 6.5 CM. I have bolt action rifles in .308 and .30-06.

If I buy one, that is another caliber of ammo I need to stock.

I still want one.

Please talk me out of it.

u know this is Texas Gun Talk, right?

I know people with more ARs than that yet still have an AK or three.

Get the AK if you like, but give up the stupid "tactical fad," throw those AR toys away, and get yourself a real rifle like an M1A or a lever-action.

I think I need a larger safe.

I have had my ARs for years, and they are not part of the fad. I carried a M16A2 to war, and I am quite happy to carry my AR today. They do not have all of the tati-cool furniture on them.

I may go for an M1A at some point.

I’m an ak snob. This isn’t the market to get one. If you feel you have to, get a Serbian. They have gotten better and will be the best value for under 1k.

If you can get a wasr10 in the 700-800 range, look it over and if the rivets are good and the gas block and barrel housing are gtg I’d gamble with accuracy and buy a wasr over a Zastava rifle. I have my reasons.

If you can afford and are ok with inflation then just buy a circle 10. You will read mixed opinions online about Arsenal from Bulgaria but it’s worth it. Notice my username. If I could have one ak that’s the one.

 

[Sam7sf]

If you find Hungarians don’t pay a lot but they are solid.

 

[Sam7sf]

Lol if you buy a wasr: get the ugliest one. It will shoot lights out. Lol

I'm poor so no more calibers for me. I've had AKs they are fun and steel cased ammo is cheap but they are just blasters and minute of human accurate, there are exceptions.

Get one and get it out of your system if you can afford it but you wont be happy after shooting serviceable ARs

The issue is not whether you should get one, you should. But while you are thinking about it stock up on a ton of Russian ammo while it is still available.

 

[oldag]

Go for it.

 

[Jarine88]

[mention]Sam7sf [/mention] I am going to need some AK education.

 

[candcallen]

Get ammo first I think its gonna dry up quick. Just a hunch with the Ukrainian president begging for ammo.

The Army issues 74s but they gave a huge stock of 47s they may be handing out to the people.

So both calibers may get sketchy.

I’ve shot AKs. I’ve even shot them full-auto. Just had fun with it.

That is what is increasing my interest in buying now.

The steel cased ammo probably won't be cheap if you don't currently have it.

 

[seeker_two]

They also make AKs in 9mm.....

I ain't gonna talk you out of it. Might help or enable in some way, but I ain't gonna dissuade you.

Not in the world we have now.
