That is an Arsenal of Las Vegas AK....started as a low cap then milled out to take hi-caps...which is cool because the milled out ones are actually from Bulgaria...the made as hi-caps are made here from Bulgarian parts.

You can get my stock set from kvar for milled AND stamped AK's.

The Arsenal is nice if you can find one and can afford it. I had and unmodified one like Joe's - it was a fine rifle. No complaints - my best friend talked me out of it. He still has it! I also had a Norinco. It was a good rifle, but not as good as the Arsenal. I had a WASR-10 - didn't like it much - actually I hated it. Loose mags, trigger slap, dismal accuracy and a nasty habit of popping me right under my cheek bone.

I now own two of the Yugo M-70's and I have no plans to sell them anytime soon. They are accurate, dependable and generally very user friendly. I have the underfolder and the fixed stock versions. No Complaints - except that I can't afford their big brother (Yugo RPK).

What do you think about those Chrome Ak's and the prices? And where could I find a receiver to add to that parts kit?

Well, going to look at AK's today. We'll see what I end up with.

Heading over to 5280 Armory here in Arvada, CO. They are pretty good.

I really like the look of the M-70 underfolder, are they just for plinking or can you actually shoot with one? They do not look as if they are comfortable to shoot, cheek-to-stock.

They are good shooters. I don't find it uncomfortable at all. I like the folding stock better than the standard AK stock - I find it hard to get a good sight picture with the standard AK stock. With the under-folding stock you can get your head down a little further and get a decent sight picture.

I took para cord and wrapped the left bar on my under-folder. That way you don't have your face on a piece of cold metal in the winter. It still folds and functions normally.

I love my Saiga. It's chambered in .223 and I got 2 30 round mags for it. Brand new for 250 plus 100 for the mags. I have not had one problem outta it for about 300 rounds so far. Well I take that back. I did have one strange thing happen the very first time I squeezed the trigger. It fired 2 rounds instead of one. It ejects the spent casings kinda hard too. They literally hit the roof. Need to fix that soon so I can save them to reload. After that it work flawlessly. Pretty accurate too! I am not the best shooter but I get 1 inch at 50 yards 3 shots using Wolf Ammo. I figure that I can improve on that by using some better ammo. Those shots were NOT fired from a bench rest either.

Most people say the shooter is accurate but coming from someone who isn't that great of a shot I can honestly say it is the gun in this case.

Which Saiga? My Saiga .223 has 10 and 30 round mags

And the world's most accurate gun won't help a poor shooter.

Yep, a Norinco or Polytech MAK90 is an excellent choice.
