Default cheapest ak-47 on the market.

i have been looking around for a cheap ak-47 for awhile and the cheapest one i have found is a wasr 10/63 for around $450. i was wondering does any one know where i can get one cheaper or a different ak-47 that doesn't cost as much.

MGS has them here locally for 399, the saigas are sporter AK variants that come in 7.62X39, .308, .223, 20 ga. and 12 ga. and prolly a couple other I am not remembering..

I have always wanted a saiga 12 with the AK stock conversion kit. Something about a 12 ga AK lead breathing dragon is just so appealing to me..

You DO get what you pay for.

I don't skimp on firearms purchases and wouldn't recommend anyone else to do so either.

Buy the best you can afford - ergo, save up more, then buy.

He's 14, but he lives in Illinois. You have to be 21 (or have parent's permission) to get the FOID card, which is a requirement for any gun ownership in that state.

ETA: Dang, TWO responses while I was typing. I'm SLOW.
