Smart move by PSA.

There are no reasonably priced AKs since Obama was elected. You used to get the Romanian AKs for under $400. Now they are all up in price.

AKs make good bump fire guns. I liked shooting my Yugo under folder at crap.

If cheap and reliable enough, I could see getting one and have it roll around the Magpul website.  I must've been lucky and got one of the good WW AK74's and don't want to jinx it by swapping parts on it.  And, the I.O.'s, Century-builds, and Polish (non-Radom) have had enough issues to make me wary.  But, I don't need an Arsenal for the project.

Right, until a week turns into a month, and a month turns into never ship you anything at all.  Ask me how I know.

They are johnny on the fucking spot taking your money the minute you click to order though.  Not too swift to return it though when they fuck up.

They cant even handle what they have on their plates, why dont they try and fix themselves before trying to fuck something else up?

Fuck PSA.

That's the problem, they're wildly inconsistent. I've seen them so loose that you could twist the mag and it would pop out, and I've also seen them so tight that the owner had to file it to get the magazine that came with the gun in.

Century may have made improvements recently, but in the past they've shown that they don't give a fuck about the customer. Between shit AK jobs, fucked up FALs, grinding the bolts on CETMEs in order to get them to fit. If they'll do that kind of shit, why should we ever trust them again?

Aaaaand your other options are a $600 WASR that's been buttfucked by a drunken monkey at Century, or a $1,200 Arsenal.
There's a distinct lack of economical, good quality AKs in the market. If PSA can do to AKs what they did with ARs, we all win.

Show us on the doll where PSA touched you.
