Talking to someone the other day about ak's and all the variants and he said he would give up his small collection for a NIB Mitchell yugo of any kind and I found this interesting so It got me thinking about what I would give up my small family of ak's for and ever since I fondled a NDM-86 and looked at its scope that had never even been lifted out of its wooden box about a year ago in a local gun shop I can't stop thinking bout how sexy that damn thing was so a NDM-86 in either caliber is my choice. so what's yours if you could only have one or the one you would give your left nut for And if you already have it your no fun at all

Just to be fair let's keep it to ak's that you can actually legally own in the US because we all know we would choose some sort of select fire military rifle BTW if i could choose ANY ak it would be a Russian PP-19 Bizon

SGL31-94 (AK74M clone)

Been wanting one of these for a while now.  With a good optic, this would be my "one and only" weapon.

I already own it, a .308 Vepr customized to my needs.  Don't need or desire anything rare or uber expensive, just functional/practical and fun to shoot.





If I'm going to drop serious money on a rifle, it won't be AK based.

If we're taking semi auto stuff.... I just built it with my Micro-105.  It is a one of a kind as far as I know.... for now anyway.

If I'm dreaming it would have to be a full auto 7.62 Krink.

This is it, for me. Simple, light, compact, just plain gorgeous, will send a lot of lead down range with just a few pulls of the trigger, and it looks evl.

PP-19 Bizon... I would give up all of my AKs for one of these.



Snce there are no civi-legal clones of Bizon in the states, there is nothing else that I would really want other than the AKs I already own.

Compared to something compact (AKSU, 8" S12, etc), the Legend is a pig. Don't get me wrong, I liked both of mine (had a NM too), but that wouldn't be my "one". I'd rather have something that I won't mind carrying for a while. The smaller and lighter, the better.

I recently got mine after several years of waiting. An Arsenal SLR-107CR, which will be SBR'ed as soon as my Form 1 gets approved.

Only 1 eh? I'd say my 107UR I'm about to cut down on a form 1, or a 74 with a sidefolder, which I also have. I love the 74, and I think the 107ur is going to be badass so I guess I won't know which one I like better until it's all done.

There are rare variants I'd like, like an 86s, but I would not want that to be my only AK.

If we're getting into the land of attainable but completely off the table financially, I'd say a full auto 5.45 krink or 7.62x39 FA maadi build. Maybe when I win the lottery..

Here's some rich dudes FA maadi, worth only 20-25k maybe?

As for me, I was fortunate enough to have bought a new FEG SA85M post-ban in 1996 and smart enough to keep it, although I did convert it to 'pre-ban'. I did recently pick up an 'AMD65' too. I like the FEGs. Since I also have ARs, I'm satisfied with my AK situation and wouldn't give either one up to get any other one that I have seen or heard of. So I'm in the 'you're no fun' category as a satisfied AK owner who does look at all the offerings but never gets serious about buying anything new..

Don't they have that in 7.62X25?  I could definitely go with that and the armor-piercing variant ammo.

It would be a pre ban Zastava for me...Full stock or underfolder––either would be fine. Both would be better.

I have a beautiful pre ban Poly Tech Red Bakelite Side Folder that I'm quite fond of. I've owned her since the late 1980s. In all those years I have only put 60 rounds through her. I'd be hard pressed to sell her, but I'd trade her for an equally impressive Zastava in a heartbeat.

It would be the 106UR sitting in my safe.

It's the only AK I ever wanted, a Krink.
It's chambered in 5.56, so I don't have to stock another caliber.
Most importantly, It's one the feds don't know about. *

I would trade for this, the AN-94 BAKAN:



OR a AEK-971N


However, I did sell most of collection for my Tiger, right now I am getting the SVD gas regulator including the gas block in a few weeks and an SVD flash hidder assembly from the factory so the finish matches (my current one was a pull off from an SVD).

I would want something with common ammunition if I could only have one. And .223 and 7.62 are the most common.

AKMs, Type 1s, Type 2s, AK-74s, and even AKS-74Us are all great guns, but at the end of the day they are not rare at all.  Sure they are rare here, and REAL ones are pretty much non existent here, but in the rest of the world some of those can be bought for a chicken.  This is why for me, the AK that I would want is hands down the AKMSU.  It's as rare as it gets.  Not only rare here, since there are none, but rare in the rest of the world as well b/c there is just one.  It is not even a "real" production gun, even though so many thought it was, and some still say it is, and was just a one off gun built with Russian parts on a Chinese receiver, but the stories that come with it are awesome, and it is truley a one of a kind.  The AKMSU hands down gets my vote!  

Hence why in about a year or two (Transfer times and build times with Ted Marshall) I should have an exact replica of it, even down to the serial numbers and dates on trunnion, done being made out of my registered underfolder Polytech =)  So far I have the registered gun, one of the very few custom muzzle brakes Ted Marshall made, and the wooden handguard.  Still quite a few more parts to go, but I'll get there.
