I'm getting that its better to buy a pre built ak cause it will be cheaper and less of a pain in the *** to build one. Or get a wasr and have rifle dynamics upgrade the wasr. But since i live in cali, with ffl fee's, shipping charges, bullet button, i'll end up paying over 1k if i go this route. Hell i'll end up paying the same to have one built. But i won't have to go through an FFL dealer and i can buy my own aftermarket kits.

I don't have any tools but occasionally we have build parties and usually they have all the necessary tools to have ak's built.

I want your thoughts, opionions or suggestions! Have anyone of guys built your own AK? How would you say it compares to say a wasr or even a arsenal ak's. (quality of the build, finish and how does it shot )

Here's one of the kit i may get, but it is pricey.

Its not cheap to send out, but if you are good with tools and have access to a press then its pretty cheap to convert a Saiga into a traditional AK yourself. The parts are easy to get, just have to make sure it stays ATF complaint since its an imported weapon. In stock form, Saiga's are surprisingly accurate and its a brand new, Russian AK.
