Help me pick out an Assault Rifle
A friend of mines dad is wanting to sell me a Romanian AK-74 SAR-2 5.45x39 for $325. It has never been fired and seems to be in decent shape. However it has a pretty cheap feel to it as most of the metal looks like cheap stamped steal and the finish is pretty poor.
My question is, is that a decent rifle for $325? Or if I am going to go for a cheaper gun, should I try and find a higher quality built SKS rifle for cheaper, or should I look at spending more money on a better rifle (suggest some to me).
My budget is $500 or under to be realistic.

I dunno bout the rifle man, but the ones the troops use right now in sandy land, are freakin sweet!!! I would get one if I were you. I think they are standard issue 3 round burst ect. I have 2 friends that own them, and just thru the open sights at 100 yards I would make 4-5" groups. with my 44mag marlin rifle, I would make 4-5 foot groups lol.

they are 7.62x39. I payed 300 for both of them about 5yrs ago. Came with a assortment of clips and some acessories, plus a 8in long bayonett(sp). Most fun was getting all that shipping grease out of the barrel and chambers.
