Hi all.
I'm new here but I have been lurking and reading various posts for a bit.
I'm in a bit of a conundrum here trying to pick an AK platform and I would like to throw it out to the gurus here to get opinions. I'mmm leaving price out of the equation because I want this decision to be based on quality of the rifle, not cost. With the exception of the SLR-95, they are all in the same price range.
Here are my choices:
Arsenal / FIME group SGL-21, NIB, 1 5-round plastic mag
MAK 90, stamped, looks NIB w/ 5 round mag, and thumbhole stock
Slightly used:
SLR-95, milled, w/ 5 steel double stacks and US walnut stock 90 with drums and mags (this one is nice, but the most expensive of all)
Saiga AK 103, stamped, at least one 30-round, steel double stack and red dot scope
MAK 90, stamped, w/ 2 drums & 4 30-round, steel double stacks, thumbhole stock
ATI (???), stamped with 2 30-round, steel double stacks (not familiar with this one)
MAK 90, stamped, totally decked out w/ 4 30-round, steel double stacks and ammo (needs G2 trigger to use non-us mags)
Any reason I shouldn't jump all over this SLR-95?
What's a good second choice?
Thanks in advance!
