Best AK choice?

Im looking for an Underfolding AK with black furniture
My first choice was a vector arms AKUP but they are out of stock in most places and now I heard vector was actually shutting down?
What else is a good kind of underfolding black furniture stamped AK for a decent price?

Check with Blain at Atlantic and see what he can do for you. Probably going to be a Lancaster or something like that. Best choice though sometimes is most expensive choice. Good choice might just be Lancaster right now with Vector in a flux.

Get a copy of ShotGun News. They are getting harder to find all the time. The best ones will cost you half an arm nowadays compared to what they used to. I still think Arsenal does some very good work...still pricey.

I just picked up a M70AB2 from Century International Arms. I haven't yet gotten to shoot it but it seems to be well put together.

I have a Yugo and love it.

My brother wanted one but when we went to the gun store where I got my Yugo, they said that they are having trouble finding Yugos and don't know when or if they will get more in.

My Bro ended up getting a Bulgarian AK with black furniture. I mean you can't leave a gun store without buying a gun, right?

His AK is lighter than mine and is a really cool one. Both a good firearms.

I've been thinking about picking up an AK as well, but I have to admit to complete ignorance when it comes to this rifle. I'm familiar with the M-16 platform (and own a couple of AR's, as well as carrying an M-4 for work), but know nothing about AK's. I can pick up a Romanian AK-47 "Underfolder" locally for $519. Is a Romanian AK a decent rifle and is that a reasonable price?

Thumbs up Can't Go Wrong w/Yugo

Hello All,

All AKM's are great...For the money my

M70B1's and M70AB2's always go BANG everytime and give me:

Minute of Shotgun Shell @ 25m
Minute of Beer Can @ 50m
Minute of Pie Plate @ 100m
Minute of Bad Guy @ 200m

YMMV ....Good enough for these ole' eyes anyhow.

I LOVE my Yugos and wouldn't trade any of 'em.

Safety First...Keep your groups tight,

mM
