Well; I'm new to this particular forum but not so new to the AK world, I have a nice little collection right now and enjoy shooting all of them. I would like to add an RPK to that collection. I've seen those new AES-10 RPK look-alikes but would prefer somthing better. Either a RPK74, RPK47, or NHM91, in a military configuration.
Is there any source for any of these at this time? I've been able to turn up the AES-10 right in my backyard at Centerfire Systems, and the $1,200 RPK47 from Military Gun Supply built from Romainian kits. There are some NHM's on the auction sites; and the occasional RPK74 in 5.45 but most have some civilian parts here and there, and the RPK74 is going at around 1200.
Is the AES-10 worth the money? Would a Chinese NHM91 be a better value and worth a few hundred more? Should I just belly up to the bar and shell out for a 74 or nice 47? Need some advice on gettin' me some hot RPK action!
