Hi THR,
I read about AK's and still kind of confused about the whole thing. There are so many AK variants out there and so many company to look to choose from I don't know where to begin. Also I read that are two different caliber to choose from, 7.62x39 and 5.45x39. People say that 5.45x39 ammo is cheaper but when I was looking at pricing they were about the same price.
What I am looking for is a good AK platform to start off with. One that I can build up later if I wanted to. I don't know the difference or advantage from the AK-47 to the AK-74. I would be mainly using this for target shooting/fun but if there are other uses for it that would be great too. Could you guys school me and point me in the right direction?
Also right now I am not a fan of the wood parts of the AK, black polymer would be my preference.
Thanks
