Hey there, long time lurker here at THR! Anyways, I've been planning on getting a semi-automatic rifle for some time now, and I found a Yugoslavian M72 Century RPK for $700 which seems like a good price (Not sure yet, the website may have been outdated since I haven't visited or verified it with the store yet). The main problem stopping me is the current lack of cheap 7.62x39 anywhere at this moment in time, as it seems as if both commercial and surplus ammo is just way too expensive. I've also been looking at the PSL, because it uses the same ammunition as my Mosin-Nagant and I don't have to worry about spending more on ammo. I'd have to order the PSL online though, since it appears to be cheaper though the internet.
I know this comparison may be apples to oranges, but I was wondering if anyone could compare the overall build quality between the PSL and the Yugoslavian M72 RPK, and possibly a bit of advice concerning this matter? The rifle would be primarily be used as a fun gun, but with the additional potential of being a SHTF weapon.
Thanks for any input!
