Wanted an AK for years, have an AR, been thinking buying a couple lowers from Palmetto to stick back and get uppers for later. But, would love an AK, WASR would be fine, would really like one of Atlantics Polish rifles. Concerned AKs are going to get harder to get. And that prices are going to get goofy on AR and AK stuff. What say you?

Get the AK now and save the ARs for later. Quality AKs of the moment are typically not around all that many years, especially these days, so if you know you want something with a good reputation now is probably the best time. You never know what will be available down the road in the AK market. That being said there is usually something of good quality at any given period but they are also becoming less and less combloc as time goes on due to the nature of dried up parts kits, barrel bans etc.

Im saving money up to buy a another ak either a Mak90 or a WASR. I have 9 lowers waiting to be build on the ar side.

Yeah, Id have to save for the WASR, the AR pieces I could pick up here and there at a few hundred dollars at a time, but then that takes away from the AK. Been thinking of lay away on a WASR at Atlantic.

I value ARs over AKs.  Being a 2 is 1 and 1 is none type of guy, I could not be satisfied with a single AR.  I would pick up a second AR before moving on to something else.
If I had that second AR, I would definitely consider the WASR as my next purchase.





My opinion only on the matter.



 

Considering WASR's are imported and AR's are produced domestically, I'd say move on the WASR now while they're plentiful and available.
