AK and AR and ammo for $1,000 good deal or not?

Lost his job, health issues and no more health insurance. Nice guy, felt sorry for him. I'd hate to be in his position.

know the battlepacks are South African, which I believe are no longer allowed for importation. Wondering if I should sell those and the wolf and buy reloading tools and supplies? Or will the SA 5.56 go up in value more...or shoot it and keep the brass?

You got a good deal, now don't get greedy.

I'd shoot the ammo. You got it for a good price and won't find anything as good on the market now for that price. I'm not sure if SA 5.56 brass is reloadable but if it is, save it and the PMC brass.

Smells fishy to me. Too good of a deal.

If the deal is as reported, and you don't have to wear asbestos/Nomex gloves to shoot 'em....

GO GRAB IT UP QUICK, MAN! ! ! ! ! ! Why are you stil here? ? ? ? (Asking 10 minures later) Why are you not now on your way home with said goods in your hands? ? ? ?

 

[michaelj1978]

They're in my hands/gun safe now. Got them a couple days ago.

Good call on picking that up. Glad someone got a good deal. I'm not in the market for either an AK or AR but would NOT have passed that up.

 

[michaelj1978]

He might have to let go of some more stuff if he doesn't get a job, and he's got my number.

From what I've read so far, I wouldn't shoot the Wolf steel cased ammo through my AR15 unless it was a well worn one that I didn't care about.

 

[michaelj1978]

Yeah, I don't know what I'll do with the wolf. I have about 6K for my SKS's and new Saiga, and Wolf runs like a champ through them. Their match ammo is amazingly accurate for my .22's as well.

I'll either sell it and buy reloading tools for the .223 or I have a RRA lower that I'd like to SBR, so I'll need some cheap "fun" ammo to blast through it.

If the AR is too delicate for wolf, you could dump it and get a Yugo m95.
