Hummm,I wonder if the ad is dealer price,if so add about twenty percent,plus shipping,and the chance that the gun won't be as nice as the one you can see now.
Both are probably nice goodies,it's which you choose.
I am certainly no expert.

I've got a WASR 10 hicap, over 3200 rds. with no problems. But the yugo's are built better. If you can afford the extra $80.00 (can't believe I'm saying this) you'd probably
be better off with the yugo.

is there any real weight differance between the two?

The yugo will be a little heavier, not sure how much. None of them are real heavy though.

The Yugo weighs twice as much. It has half the recoil so its easier to hold on target when pulling the trigger as fat as you can. I love my YUGO. Make sure it has a chromed barrel.
