My priorities include, in this order:
-Price
-Reliability
-Accuracy
Not as important, but still a consideration
-Ergonomics
-Cost of Ammo
-Weight
So far I have found a few rifles which might fit the bill, but looking for opinions... educated opinions that is. From people who have actually fired these rifles.
#1 AMD-65
Pros
-Cheap
-Very reliable
-Probably acceptably accurate
-NOT assembled by Century (see below)
Cons
-Funny stock
Saiga 7.62 + Folding Stock + Convert to standard mags
Pros
-Rifle itself should be fairly cheap, if I can find one
-High quality as far as AKs go
-Accurate (for an AK)
Cons
-Out of stock
-Folding stock is atrociously expensive
Galil "Golani" Sidefolder
Pros
-Accurate
-Comes with a good stock
Cons
-Receivers are made by Century and apparently are out of spec
-Chambered in .223 (not a big deal)
-Pricey
Photos are from various places.
Anything I should know? I'm leaning towards the AMD
