+1 Nothing smother than a Kimber

All I know is that its semi-auto(I know fully-auto is illegal) and the stock folds. It does look a little beat up. I just checked out a site that sells them for around $500 new. Thanks for the heads up. I think i'm going to find something else. I need something I can carry with me anyways.

Kimber 1911

I also have the Romanian AK. Thing is cheap. I got it years ago...maybe 6-7. I got it for $250 and it was my first rife.

The thing jammed at first but after sanding down some edges it shoots like a champ. Never had a problem with it since.

For a cheap rife it's good.

The Romanian WASR-10 is an excellent AK-47. Its considered in the lower to mid end price range of AK-47's. Its well made and you should not have any problems with them.

not sure how much they are now but i bought 2 at ammo dump for 399.99 each. brand new. all black with the plastic folding stocks. they came with two 30 round clips, bayonet, sling, and a few other things. the ones i got were the Romanian WASR-10.

Jose, Its important you look at the rifle and check out a few things.
One get a name and any other inscriptions on the rifle. There are several AK-47 rifle makers out there. $399 is low as they have slowly risen in price from 200-500 for a new unit over the last 6 years.
A Chinese Norinco would be worth over $1000 used even more new.
The Egyptian makers, Bulgarian or Romanian rifles are good too. Some of the Russians are good, some 'not worth the steel they are made from'
If you can get a name of the maker I can give you a much better price on it.

depends on what kind it is. Yes a TRUE russian made AK can go for a couple thousand, but many others can go for a much lower price. If you can find out what type it is and its condition it would be alot easier to say for sure if thats a fair price.

I'm not a gun person but I have a 38 special and a .22 cal rifle and i'm looking to add to the collection. I saw an AK-47 at a pawn shop for $399! Can that be right? The guy told nothing was wrong with it. I know they go for a couple thousand new. Should I be quick to pick this up?
