If it were me? I would just find a decent WSAR10, get some mags, ammo and have at it.

How much is a reasonable price for a WASR-10 though? The way I understand it, imported AKs get some sort of "adjustments" made to them before they hit the US market. I must admit, I don't really understand what's going on with the imports, or how different brands through various distributors compare to each other.
I think I'll be getting a hands-on look at a Zastava later this week. But I don't know who imports them, or what modifications are or are not done by the distributor. I asked a the LGS about some AKs and was told, "these are Centuries, that is an Arsenal."
Is Arsenal a brand of AK, or just a distributor? How about Century? I've now gained just a little knowledge about the WASR-10 and Zastava (is it the M70? Or are there different models?), but I certainly don't have a clear picture of the AK market as a whole.
The most frustrating part of owning an AK might be figuring out which one to buy, and then getting my hands on it for a "reasonable" price.
