I'm looking to complement my Vz.58 and SKS with another gun that shoots 7.62x39. I'm not interested in an AK47, but something that accepts their mags would be fine.
Is there a gun a civilian can buy that meets this criteria?
* Made to shoot the 7.62x39 (not an AR15 variant). Want piston based anyway.
* Can accept steel cased lacquered ammo like Brown Bear.
* More modern design with native accommodation for scopes or sights.
* Not the Ruger Mini-30 (The Mini-30 is already on my list. I just want to know "what else")
I'm wondering if the Saiga is the one I'm looking for?? I missed the opportunity to buy one when they were allowed and plentiful. What else? Part of me thinks I should just tacticool my Vz.58 with aftermarket options, but I wouldn't mind having a second option.
