GunsAmerica is buyer beware. They just provide a place to list items for sale. The sellers create the listing and it's up to the buyer to do his own research.

GA cannot intervene in these situations. There would just be too many ("this is the most popular firearm of the 20th century!").

Arsensal does build high-end AK's using both milled and stamped receivers, and at least some of the latter are manufactured by Saiga, so it's a sort of understandable error; but $1100 would be too much for one of those, unless the deal includes a boatload of magazines and other accessories. (I think they're running around 850.00 right now.)

It wouldn't be a half-bad price for one of their milled-receiver ones, though, compared to this, at nearly $1800.00.

Buyer beware, yes, but I don't see much point in harassing GA about their advertisers' errors.

Seller has agreed to change ad....

Vanya,

Izmash makes only stamped, Arsenal may or may not be "producing" in NV for much longer.... they were assembling them from parts made in Bulgaria, and the 2005 barrel ban is bound to affect them...

Thanks to all who replied.
