I see you've asked no questions in your post asking to learn something...
So, what is it that you want to learn?
Would you trade a Cadillac for a Buick?
i'd do it because no one is going to pay your rediclous asking price for an unconverted gun.
well atleast no one on here i'd hope..
Would you trade a Cadillac for a Buick?
dont u mean ri·dic·u·lous? It would probably seem ridiculous that i traded a kel-tec for this though..buy an econ book and get back to me...
so the saiga is the caddy??
looks like you need to get a book on gun values
I'd trade an uncoverted Saiga for a WASR-10 in a second. You'll have serveral hundred dollars wrapped up in getting the Saiga to its true configuration, the WASR is ready to go right out of the box.
the thing is i have a ton of guns but never shot or owned an ak..a book isnt going to help me ...especially if u ponder the fact that i traded a pot metal kel tec for this gun
great job catching that spelling error, and No need to buy a book just to understand your ignorance
It's still over priced.
This is a weird thread. Everyone, come to reality. Forget yesterday's prices and what they may or may not be tomorrow. It doesn't apply. And no one has a crystal ball.
Max, the Saiga, even unconverted, is regarded as a nice sporting rifle. Usually excellent fit and finish and accurate.
The WASR is not the prettiest of beasts and is basically the entry level AK-47.
I think this comes down to personal preference for both style and ammo type here. I'm not an aficionado as many on here with regard to the classes of AK's and Saiga's, but I know there is some good explanation and introductions to the Saiga which I've read here. PM VitaminK (INGunOwners - View Profile: vitamink). He has always helped me a lot with detailed understanding as well as others.
From what I have seen, the WASR's are going for a higher amount at today's rates. Long term, i expect the 7.62 x 39mm ammo will stay cheaper to shoot than the 223 so that is a plus as well.
