Just got back from my LGS, ordered my first AK. An Arsenal SLR 107FR31, I have very little experience with the AK platform but I'm confident with this one.

Under $1000 otd.

Any tips for the new guy?

It will be awhile yet, he is ordering it on Monday. Hopefully I'll pick it up on Friday but because of work I won't be able to shoot it for a week or two

Hopefully I'll be able to order a case of ammo in a month or so, the rifle was over what I really could afford, so my 400 round stash will have to last for now.

Good thing I stock a few rounds even of calibers that I don't own

Excellent choice.Grab some cheap steel mags over at AIM while they still have them.

Those of us that have bought SLR 107FRs lately have found that the front site pins are stuck in place.  Here's a current thread on the subject... http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_4_64/154707_AK_front_sight_pin_stuck.html

I really like these mags.  I bought ten of them.  All are brand new, and have performed flawlessly.  They also hold the bolt open on the last shot to let the barrel vent while you're reeling in the target at the range to see that all thirty holes are in the bulls-eye (it's a 107FR, ya know).  The webpage says there are only 34 of them left, so get them while you can... http://sgammo.com/product/surplus/30-round-ak-47-mag-serbian-762x39-military-bolt-hold-open-new-unissued-condition

Order more than 4 mags.Play with the shipping calculator with different quantities.I would recommend at least getting 10, 4 isnt anywhere near enough.
