and a Bulgarian AK-74 and love ‘em all. I was fortunate enough to stock up on thousands of tin can sealed 7N6 rounds for the 74 before Obama banned them.
Very jealous!!! Nice rifle I like the Bulgarians.
I settled for a simple IO AKM. $650 out the door. Almost jumped on a CA RAS47 but they were asking $100 more then MSRP. In spite of the issues the IO rifles had in 2015-6. I inspected all the rivets and all seem nice and uniform, and I have forged trunnions instead of cast ones. 2 areas of concern on the IO AKMs. The only thing I want to do is get a Bulgarian recoil spring and bolt carrier. I hear they improve the IO AKM immensely. The bolt as is sticks a little and I don't like it.
Sorry Ferret but I didn't take the time to find an Ol' Salty one I like the one with the carvings in the stock that thing has some character!
