    I'd like to get wood furniture if possible but poly is fine, any color. Big fan of original furniture on AKs - rails and doodads aren't really my thing as far as Kalashnikov patterns go, but it's not a dealbreaker either. As for as models / makers, Waffen Werks, James River, Interarms, anything really as long as it shoots straight. Only one I'm a little leery of is Century.

    Thanks!

    Would also be interested in a Saiga sporter in 5.45 if anyone has one of those floating around.

    Unfortunately no 47s on board... was hoping for a cash deal. If that's something you'd be interested in...?

    How much are you wanting to spend on one? The last time I was at Mikes Outdoors, they had a couple Ak's there for around $699. Hope this helps.

    I honestly wouldnt know what cash value to put on it. Then again, I'm sure I value it more than the actual book value. I thoroughly enjoy this one, action is so nice, recoil feels so perfect, accuracy is more than acceptable with zero keyholing. I took it from ugly ducklin with cheap import plastic to super nice refinished surplus wood that I enjoyed doing, yadda yadda yadda.

    Pretty much only thing that would get me out of it would be a trade for an underfolder 47 in same condition. I'd put my resale on this one with ammo somewhere around $1200 (probably 600ish rounds available)

    again, I know that is probably higher than actual value, but I couldnt let it loose anyway else.

    5.45? They always have 7.62s in stock but I've never seen a 5.45 there. Ask em every time I go in, too. Dirtysouth, I've been to just about every shop in town looking for a 5.45 AK and haven't seen one yet. They're all over the internet, but I was hoping to find a used one locally before I jumped on that.

    Ksenter, I understand. I wouldn't let it go if I were you, after having done all of that to it (that, and I can't afford it anyway :wink:). Enjoy it!
