Anonymous Coward User ID: 580163 United States 02/22/2009 03:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Looks like a 1980's Romanian "civil guard" ak-47 kit import, build on a US made receiver and prettied up with cheap TAPCO plastic. Have one I built myself, similar plastic and so on. Good rifle to buy, as the prices of kit based AK rifles are climbing fast (you can no longer import kits with barrels). Personally, I like the Romanians. Have fun! |

Thanks. I've been wanting one of these for a long time. It's my understanding that I could have bought this rifle much cheaper a year or so ago. Wish I would have jumped on one before they got so expensive. |

For an AK, you might consider going with some kind of red dot site rather than a scope... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 611446Oh, you're gonna need a lot more than 250 rounds....That wouldn't last long when the zombies are hungry for humabeef.. LOL!

Anonymous Coward User ID: 553830 United States 02/22/2009 03:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have bought several things from IO in the last 3 or 4 years, but I can't remember what they were???? Shit fire, I must have brain damage. Brain damage and guns go together well, since I also don't remember what happened to the guns I bought. Very convenient! Is that drool running down my chin? |

twistedfugger (OP) User ID: 617867 United States 02/22/2009 04:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's kinda like changing diapers, once you do it your screwed. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 553830It's sad everything has doubled for those just now starting to buy. They may double again or worse though. Maybe a friend has an AR or AK you can buy cheaper than what's available out there. You can forget finding an AR for cheap. I didn't see one at the show for less than $1500. |

Quoting: Evil TwinNow all you need is a few more mags and an unlimited supply of ammo, lol! Thanks ET. This one is riveted not screwed. To be honest, everyone I looked at was riveted. It's sturdy though, and the mags fit nice and snug. I can't wait to shoot it!! |

I don't think I've ever seen one with a screwed receiver for under $900 or so. Here's my cheapo Romanian riveted build. It goes bang every single time and shoots "minute of beercan" offhand at 50 yds. Good enough for me ;) |

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |
