If it makes you happy, then go for it.
You should have heard the crap I caught for selling my AR to fund my saiga .308 project. You would have thought I committed a mortal sin. I wasn't nearly as happy with the AR as I am with the Saiga, and I can't afford to hoard every gun I buy "just because". But I'm probably just weird.

I got rid of a VEPR 7.62x39 and picked up an ORF AK-74 in 5.45 in another deal.
I don't regret it a bit. While the VEPR was nice, it was way too heavy for my taste. The 74 shoots great, I really like the small caliber round, and I have no regrets. If you can't afford both, I'd suggest the AK-74....and I would also suggest you pick one up from Ohio Rapid Fire. |

I would have ORF do the build since I already have the kit, the main problem with the vepr is the weight. My big concern would be is not having a rifle in 7.62X39 |

No matter how nice the VEPR is, if it's not what you want...
My Bulgy 74 build is my fave out of 14 calibers on hand... |
