| What is up With Poly Tech
My local dealer has one that was pre ban, but is bran new in box. He says it is milled and is the best aK money can buy. He's asking 1700.00 for it. Thing looked ugly to me, but from what i've read there has to be something outstanding about the rifle. I didn't handle the rifle, but how can a chinease made clone demand such a ridicolous price. Will it shoot sub moa or something???? Somebody shed some light please. |

If he cut the "1" off the front of that price, it would appropriate and almost even competitive. $700-$1000 is a more appropriate price for one. Take a look: GunBroker.com guns: Norinco AK-47 Model 56-S pre-ban AK47 Polytech (item: 98184770 ends: Apr-30-08 07:30:30 PM) GunBroker.com guns: Norinco Polytech AK-47 PREBAN AK47 AKM ARMCO (item: 98190659 ends: Apr-30-08 08:18:36 PM) You're right, that's ridiculous and you shouldn't hesitate to laugh in his face and tell him you're never shopping there again because he's taking advantage of unknowing gun-owners.  Edit: Okay, I take it back. The ones I posted were stamped, not milled. I went and checked on the milled and this one is "buy it now" for $1800: GunBroker.com guns: AK47 National Match Semi Auto (item: 98125148 ends: Apr-30-08 02:16:00 AM) I have to admit, I can't see paying that much for an AK-47, that's just stupid.

Over priced IMHO...They did have some issues with soft receivers on the pre-ban models and the guns Broke apart after 2000 rounds... There are fools that will buy them for 1700, I am not one of them !!! Rich

Yeah that's what i figured. The guy is a total dick head. I don't buy from him because his prices are always 100-200 over what i can get them offf the internet for. After showing me the poly tech he said "I know what you buy. You need to throw that junk in the garbage and get this thing." I just laughed it off. I believe he was commenting on my saigas, and my dads yugo. This is the same guy who had told me a while back that Yugo's were junk and he could order me a wasr 10 for like 450.00. I going to start going through another dealer for my transfers. I'd rather give my money to someone else. | |
