I feel like I'm there. I've got a Tula Krink, Romanian RPK, Egyptian Maadi, Galil, and a Bulgy '74. All built by me. I've had a few others that I've sold or traded off for other toys. I feel like I've got all the major bases covered. The '74 is the most practical with an Aimpoint in an RS mount. The rest are just fun and turn heads at the range. I'd rather buy optics and mags for the AKs I have than buy any more. If I get any more, it would be to put up for my young kids. |

A bonafide requirement to own and desire to own plagues me. I still want a nice ChiCom collection i.e. Polytech Legend and Type 56 spiker.

when your storing them at friends houses, especially so the wife wont see anymore new ones
then you may have a problem collect alot, use a few sell them years later at a profit

At one point, I owned over 40... that was probably a bit much.
I'm right around a dozen now. I only miss a few of them. Ok, I lied. I miss them all.

At what point do you realize that you've got more AK's than need, but less than you want? Non-sensical question. You can never have too many. My only problem is keeping enough feed in the house for the ponys.... |

I have a SAR1, SLR-106FR, SLR-107CR, a G kit that I'm going to sell to buy 74U, LLC receivers for my AKS-74U, and AKS-74. The AKS-74 I built on a roll your own and the lack of full heat treat bothers me so I'll rebuild it on a nice numbers matching receivers. I would like a 106UR and a Saiga based 7.62 Krink.

As long as you feel a need to "round out the collection" you will always come up with something you have to have.
I used to want tons of AKs... but now I think I just want an example of the major variants from Russia. T2, T3, AKM, AK74, and a krink. Maybe a sort of modernized krink to go with it using some Bulgarian parts like the peep sight top cover and other stuff. That's all good enough for me... no desire anymore to have a bunch of stuff that is basically the exact some thing except for a minor difference. |
