Depends on what you want. The yugo is heavier, 1.6mm reciever, and is one of Century's better AK's. Lancaster is one of the better ak builders and would have better quality than the yugo. Can't go wrong either way. I have 2 century yugos and a polish lancaster. They are all great. It comes down to you wanting an underfolder or not in my opinion.

I like my underfolder as well, however, some people do not like the check weld. Try one out before you buy if you can.

I love my underfolder but like snowman said the cheek weld kinda sucks. I would rather have a fixed buttstock in a combat situation but the underfolder is fun for just playing around with. And you look cool doing it. I'm happy with my decision on the underfolder. but i understand now why them d*mn iraqi's cant hit me. But my m240g sure does a number on them

Thanks for the replies..

The yugo is cheaper by $75 so Ill go with that.
I have a black rifle for my fixed butt stock. This will just be a range toy..

I vote yugo. I find the underfolder to be very comfortable, and it is just a solid gun.

I would go with the yugo, if your wanting to stick with 7.62x39? my rational for this as opposed to the magazines that protrude from the AK? low profile able to crawl, I know some in here will argue with a false sence of security that quanity is more important then quality!!!!

You did very well. See my reply to your other post in Which AK47 for the price?
