Hey guys, I don't post here much but I could use a little help. A friend of mine has decided to grab his first rifle. Me, owning a couple ARs, told him that for the money he could not go wrong with an AK.
He is interested in an AR or AK, my logic was you can always spend more later, but you could grab a saiga or any other for $200- $400 no problem.
So he hit me with a couple quick questions. Like, whether or not to get a Saiga in .223, 7.62 39 or 7.62 51. (I told him with the small mags in a saiga, ie no high caps in the works to think about the 7.62 51.)
Anyway, what do you think. I want him to be able to get high caps, so should he look at a different platform that Saiga?
What do you guys reccomend for a starter AK platform, cal, mags brands. He just wants a rifle for the truck/house defense.
