I bought a SAM7SF84 about 2 months ago, first AK I've personally owned. Less than 300 rounds through it, flawless shooter in 2 range trips. Shot a few AK's before years ago(during a 90's SKS phase) never that impressed really, fondled multiple Ak's while trying to figure out what to buy in the last 3-4 months. I bit the bullet so to speak(steep price!) on the Sam7, but I can't say enough about the build quality, just a solid firearm. And I was pleasantly surprised by the trigger, was not expecting a good trigger at all. Bulgaria, who'd have thunk it... Not me anyway.
I have 3 firearms that will not leave my possession until the day I become worm food, an 03A3 family heirloom from my Grandfather, a Garand I just freaking love to shoot and this new SAM7. Everything else is a toy or tool that can come/go with the right price or the shifting of a whim.
