Waffen Werks makes a GREAT weapon. I’m partial to Vepr and Krebs myself.

Well, I just bought 6,480 rounds of armor-piercing 5.45X39 Russian Ammo for AK-74.

You do realize that this information has now been entered into the feral government's database, right?

Arsenal Arms out of Nevada

SGL series.

Great rifle. Clean it with used motor oil and strips of sheets with knots tied in it.

Dunk that baby in muddy water, drag in the sand and she’ll fire a mag with no effort whatsoever!

They are very hard to find right now.

Here’s one that says it’s in stock...

Probably the best AK ever was the Finnish Valmet.

At a gun show in Dothan Alabama, I came within a hair of trading for one. I had an Egyptian Maadi which for some odd reason was selling for more than the Valmet.

Comparing the two it was obvious which one was better made yet technically the Maadi was worth more. I guess the other guy was just like me. He sort of seemed to want to trade but looking at the two there was no question as to which was the better gun.

VEPR would be my choice, but there are a number of alternatives out there of comparable quality.

The AK-74 round (5.45) is similar in performance to the 5.56, just a tad less powerful. The AP ammo pops up fairly often; have not seen any massive performance difference between the AP and normal jacketed rounds, but then again I am not shooting engine blocks or kevlar!

I am feeling fairly confident that the Federal gun control push is about to collapse under its own weight in the next month or so, and then the prices for 5.56 and 7.62 should hopefully come back down to something a bit more sane. I have had a little luck recently finding ammo, but its still damn spotty and expensive.

7.62x54 is even cheaper for my mosin and if the ammo runs out it's still pretty damn useful as a club.

Why not just look for a 5.45x39 upper for the AR you already have?

Both Hungary and Bulgaria make an AK-47 which is chambered for 5.56 NATO.

I would go with either a Waffen Werks or Aresenal SGL-31.

I built two Bulgarian AK-74s myself so I’m partial to those.
