Considering picking up another AK. I'm basically just wondering if this is a good time to buy or should I wait another couple of months to see if prices drop anymore? I was leaning more towards the N-PAP but, I've noticed the O's are fairly popular on here. Is that because of the heavier reciever and lower price point?

Within the last 30 minutes, the O-PAP's price at J&G jumped from $599 to $899.

So......

Just noticed that when I signed in to check on the status of my order placed yesterday.  It could be a system glitch.  If not, a great deal has ended.

So, the better rifle is the O-PAP?

The O-PAP is the way to go. A great rifle at a great price. There will come a day when we all talk about the good old OPAP days. Do it!

I'm not a Yugo/Serb AK expert but here's my take.  People like the O-PAP because of the thicker receiver and trunnion and the double stack bolt.  Other versions have come with single stack bolts and some have had a rail on the receiver cover.  The lower price at J&G has also helped people decide to go with the O-PAP.

when i first started interest in ak it was during 94-04 ban. the dream of an all "fill in blank" made rifle, filled my mind! i bought a $179 saiga from cdnn, but wanted a folding stock, bayonet, and flash hider. all the illegal evil features only on pre 89 imports!

( i have owned saiga 7.62&12, maadi x2, mak90 x2,wasr, sar1, yugo m70ab2 & m92. nothing like a 100% yugo for the warm and fuzzies and you can only get that with pre 89 or pistol.)

flash forward, i just got an m92! and they are every where. 100% yugo krinkov clone , usually under 1k no brainer!

Can someone tell me the thread pitch for these rifles? I read on a N-PAP review they were 17mmLH? Is that true? Posted this Q in the Yugo section but, didnt get a reply.

Thank you sir.

I'll give it some thought tonight and decide tomorrow if I'm going to pick one up.

Oh, one last question. Are the Yugo rear sights the same as other AKs? I'd like to put a Rifle Dynamics rear sight on there if I get one.
