How about an ak?

How about a ruger mini-30

If I decided to order one what's the best place in y'all's opinion to do so?

Do NOT spend a ton of money on one. Yes, some of them do go for $1200. That is sheer stupidity. Some of the best ones ever made were built with no more than $20.00 in parts and were built with dissident labor.
Yes you can have one "accurized" and made to look Tacti-Cool, but at the end of the day, it's still a $300 rifle.

I know others will chime in with all the rails/lights etc, that's not what I mean. The action, rifle etc $300-$500, and $500 is being generous for what they are actually worth, even with all the "craze" non-sense.

I cant seem to find one in that price range where have you seen them go for that? thanks

Where would y'all suggest getting one in the Austin area my local gun stores (mcbrides and Sportsmans) rarely if ever have them?

We need to make a few trips to San Antonio

Norinco has always made a great ak platform..

Are they actually made by Norinco or just exported from China by Norinco? I learned this about the SKS but haven't really done a lot of research on the AK.

That gun hasn't met it's reserve price yet

It's always fun if nothing else to go to Saxet and look around. Check for the next one in Dripping Springs and go have some fun. You may just find a good price on one.

When the SHTF I will take one or 2 off the "other" guys and have one then. And any ammo and side arms. Then water/food/good lookin women...

Check out palmetto state armory, they have them time to time.

Speaking of guns, what was final result of "got drawn on" thread?
Guess it got whacked.

And not trying to derail this thread.
Hope you find AK you are looking for OP.

My buddy got a wasr-10 (2) 39 round mags (1) 75 round drum and 100 rounds of ammo for under 700 out the door.. I was CLOSE to getting one too but didn't.. Shoots pretty good..

I have a norinco mak 90 that says made in China. It originally had the thumb hole stock built like a 2x6 but that was on the short list of things to change out. I look at AK's as a rainy day, dependable, throw down battle rifle. Yes you can make them 1 MOA shooters but why? The cheap ones are just as reliable as the high end ones. That being said mine will never be sold, it's just to handy.

Great gun that will always go bang. The Russian 30 has a bit more pop that the 5.56 round and the AK's are less temperamental. AR's are even being built like AK's now with piston driven systems.
Now you just need to find one.
