Which one??? > AK Discussions

Posted: 11/15/2006 6:47:46 PM EDT

My favorite local gun shop has several AKs. A buddy who spent some time over seas a few times recommended the Hungarian AMD 65. I looked at one today, liked it. Also liked the Yugo M70. They had others like Saiga in 7.62 and .223, Romanians and more.

My goal is to buy an AK for grab-and-go rifle or back-up rife while out in the woods, so sidefolder or underfolder is a must. This will accompany the bolt action rifle for longer range game shooting.

Which one for the first AK???

Opinions differ greatly. I'd think Vector or Saiga maybe?

SAR-1 with a sidefolder, or a yugo underfolder.

Yugo, more accurate (arguably) but much more limited numbers than VEPRs or Saigas. there ain'ta gonna be no more of them, so buy while you can, and resell for 200 bucks more in a year.

$499 depending on model. Check out Atlantic Firearms and/or Vector's webpage:

Yugo Underfolder is really hard to beat right now for price

You guys want to keep tempting me that I'm going to probably regret it and end up with one of those before the end of next week.

You mean you don't have one already? What the hell is wrong with you?

Stick with the Polish Mak.

The 65, better than avg accuracy, compact and light.

How much more does the Yugo underfolder weigh than a Vector?
