See if you can still find a milled Arsenal 5.56.
I wish I would have picked one up now.  Oh well the PS90 will have to do.

Check out the Norinco 84s for something with a little more soul!
The prices on these "preban" rifles have come down quite a bit ($700-$800 for used/excellent fixed stock), have great FCG parts, and it is a joy to own given the Bush#1 import ban. The Chinese stamped receivers are about as thick as milled receivers, and mags run around $30 per and are built like normal 47 mags (robust). Bradley5050 |

If I were to do a 5.56 AK I think I would go with a milled gun. Reason being is that I hear nothing but good about them.Quick shooters due to the extra weight. If I could find one of those Arsenal's with the threaded barrel and lug I would seriously consider it.

I am primarily getting a .223 for my wife to shoot. I thought I'd put plum furniture on it for her. I am not trying to go high end. I think a SAR3 will do.

VEPRs are nice IF you like the stock. Romanians run well on Weigers only it seems, at $15 each. SAM5s prefer waffles at $20. The Russian forum has info for converting Saigas, which prefer Weigers but some have worked waffles as well.

I like my SAR3, but I've put a few extra bucks into it. Nice furniture, RSA hammer, and a home refinish job with Norrel's in SOCOM black. I picked up 4 mags and a pouch for a good price a while back. It runs flawlessly and is surprisiingly accurate, something to do with the Bulgy barrel I think.
