I'm looking to get a rifle that I can fire a lot of rounds through with little worry about wear and tear on the gun. I've been researching both the AR15 and AK side, and I'm really leaning towards an AK. I like the general look much better and the simplicity/reliabilty is a major draw.
My questions are:
1) This would be my first AK, so which one should I get? Russian, Chinese, Bulgarian, so many choices guide, me in the right direction
2) With all that I have been reading about the ammo shortages, I don't want to buy a gun and not be able to shoot it due to I can't feed it. A guy at the gun store mentioned american companies producing the 7.62x39 ammo, is that an option? Or are there some links that I can buy the ammo from?
3) A while back I got to handle an AK, but the wood on the foregrip and stock was really rough. Can I sand it to make it smoother, or can I replace it with a different set of grips altogether?
Thanks for the help
Tom
