  • teach me something about AK47's

    So there's a gun show coming up next weekend, and after watching a ton of slide fire videos, i've decided i need an AK47 with a slide fire and a drum or something crazy like that for some hog massacres (or attempts) . I might also get a 1st gen night scope for night time hog hunting. Not concerned with killing zombies, SHTF scenarios, or any of that bullshit that cluttered the other AK threads. SO, what do I need to be looking for in an AK at the show? I'm hoping to spend somewhere around 300-500 bucks for the gun. I have absolutely no knowledge on AK's, so anything you have for me would be great. From what I've read online, i think i want to go with a tapco tactical foregrip and stuff, but that's about as far as i've gotten so far.

    $300 - $500 for an AK? When you are done smoking that go ahead and pass it over here because that shit must be awesome! Seriously, though, I have not seen an AK under $600 in over 3 years.

        You need to get out more. You can walk into MGS tomorrow and buy an Saiga AK47 for $399. And that's just off the top of my head. You can get an AK for $300 easily.

            tribal - read my posts in this thread:

            I would like to purchase a Avtomat Kalashnikova, but I know nothing of them, from various post here I have read they suck their aim is not the best and only reason to buy one is to put out lead. Well for me this gun will have more sentimental value and might go hog hunting once in a while so im holding off on getting an ar for


            It will answer every single one of your questions regarding AK47's.

                Tribal, if I were you I would recommend you go down to Military Gun Supply in Ft. Worth off 820 and take a look at their Russia Saiga AK47's. Pick one up for $399 and pay Steve up there (he posts under bulldog896) $150 to convert it to a pistol grip gun. Then you will have the highest quality AK money can buy and it's cheap also.

                      Two things that do not go together is AK47's and optics. The guns are just a pain in the ass to mount optics to. However, the (real) russian side mounts are suppose to be pretty decent. I believe Saiga's are configured with the mount if I'm not mistaken so you would just need the arm itself - they can get kinda pricey, but I would ask you to pm Steve about that and he can answer all of your questions.

                        You can't go wrong with either Saiga or Arsenal. My first 47 is an Century Arms, it's decent, shoots great, with a canted front sight and all.

                          I say get a Saiga. It's a complete original Russian gun, not a parts kit gun. You can always swap the traditional AK furniture on, and rock & roll.

                            for those that dont know wolf arms is importing saigas and veprs and their prices are going to cause the market to fall. Supply and demand had the prices artificially high

                            Ex their s12s are probably going to be in the low $400
