Hi All: I have a delimma, I'm trying to choose between these 2 guns. Any suggestions as to which is preferred over the other for sport shooting? Both come with the hi-cap mags, slings, yada yada.
Thanks!

I dont understand?
You have listed 3 different guns, the SAR is Romanian not Bulgarian.

Either way, I would get the MAK-90!
Just my .02

The MAK-90 is a better built rifle IMO.  It will probably cost a bit more in the end to have a pistol grip.  I'd go with the MAK-90 and not look back.

Sorry, my mistake! It's a Romanian SAR-1 vs. the Mac90. My only concern is that, being a colector of Russian/Soviet era militari, I would be stryaing quite a bit by getting the Chinese Mac90 even though it's based mostly on the AK-47.

My first AK was a MAK. I have a SAR-1 too.

Just bought another MAK.


Once you go MAK, its hard to go back.

Thanks for the information. What makes the Mac90 a better or more fun, firearm, than the regular AK47?
P.S. How did you add that graphic under your username??

Just reputation, I have tortured my Romanian and never had a problem.

I've put over 1000 rnds through my Mak 90, its my "truck" rifle here on the ranch, never a malfunction of any kind.  Never fired a SAR-1 but looked at several, the Mak looks to be much better quality.  Have fun with what ever you get.

Yes, they do accept AK hi-cap mags.

Get the mak-90.

The fit, finish, trigger, and overall quality of the Mak are much better than the Sar.

Budget minded Sar-1, IMHO Mak-90 looks and is better quality. I have an Sar-1 and it goes BANG all the time. Can anyone tell me if the Mak is a derivative of the Chinese type 56?
