I picked up a rifle at the gunshow this past weekend,and would be grateful if someone could give me an idea what it is worth. I have an Slr-95 with a 100rnd drum a 75rnd drum 4 30rnd mags and 2 10rnds.I was told the rifle has the correct # of parts for the pistol grip and but stock to be added on ( it has the pre-ban configuration). It's in pretty good condition but has been fired some. Terry |

O.K. I'll tell you what i know but some of the prices may be inflated due to the ban we have here in California. When I bought mine, I got one of the first ones in the country, it cost $329 + tax + fees. Right before the ban took effect, they were going for as much as $800. This was the highest price i've seen here for any AK that I know of. I do know that they would go for about $500-600 about a years or so before this all happened. In my honest opinion, this is the best or one of the best AK's made in 7.62x39 It has a hammer forged barrel by Styer and shoots extremely well.

I forgot to mention. Unlike most AK's the Bulgarians/SLR-95s have MILLED receivers not the stamped sheet metal ones like most others. I believe that is one of the main reasons it shoots so well. The best results i've had was using American Eagle (Federal). Better quality ammo seems to help too! |
| I paid $279 for mine in 1996. I've seen them as high as $800 since then but right now the rifle alone sells for around $600 new. With all the drum mags and all, I'd say if you paid $700 or less you got a deal. SLR-95's are the best AK's I've seen - I'll be keeping mine. |
LOL!!! Nope, never ever used a fruit box (Apple)... (jus kiddin). Nah, I use whatever laptop the company gives me, right now it's a Toshiba Portege 7200. |
