Hello my local shop has a nice used Bulgie circle 10 AK74 for 399.00 made by Hesse(sp?) It has the bayo nut chopped off and the brake is welded on but I don't care and the bore looks nice.Does anyone have any exp. with these rifles or Hesse in general? Thanks |
| I have no first hand experience with Hesse guns - but the reputation they have is not very great. My local shop advises... if you are looking for an AK type rifle, buy anything BUT a Hesse. They aren't the only one I've heard similar noise from. Since the buzz was universally bad (haven't heard anything good so far) I never bought one to try for myself. |
Wasn't Hesse the numnut company that welded the trunions to the receivers? Or at least attempted to with several of them coming apart later in the new owners' hands. I wouldn't buy a Hesse unless it were priced crazy low and you are prepared to work on it a bunch. |
