[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 2875877, member: 6146"] I showed up late to this one, but I'm with Mike Sweeney: $850 was a good price for both of you; the Chinese rifles are in demand for many reasons; haven't been imported in 22 years, and their build quality (despite what people say) is as good as any AK on the market - with a better trigger and heavier-built receiver and barrel, and fantastic bluing that is much nicer than the "squid ink" paint Arsenal sprays on their $1000 and more rifles. Only flaw in yours was the mixed SNs; if not for that, yours would have been a $1000+ rifle. MAK90s are the same rifle that had to be neutered for our bedwetting government. I'd still take a pre-ban Chinese over most (but the Russian SKS is the gold standard of those rifles). [/QUOTE]
