I've done quite a bit of reading on the AK, and there's almost too much info as well as biased ads towards one assembler or manufacturer, milled -vs- stamped, etc.
I'm looking for one with a wood stock platform, and as reliable and well-made as I can get.
Why do I want one? Because Uncle Joe doesn't want me to have it. And I just like firearms, and have as long as I can recall. I enjoy them for their art and function. I own an AR-15, so that's taken care of.
I did make the mistake of buying a new milled Norinco MAK 90 back in the day for $400.00. Kept it a short time. It was an ugly sucker with the thumbhole stock, never fired it, and sold it within a year. Baaad mistake! Those ugly suckers are EXPENSIVE now.
Okay, so any AK gurus have some advice for me on my (hopefully) new acquisition? I'm willing to pay top dollar for the right AK.
Thanks in advance!
