I`ve read a lot of whining, bitching and moaning around that the AK market in the US is dead, that ARs are stagnant, and that we`re losing the few imports we have.


And then I got this for $390 shipped to Dreadi`s shop. :rofl9:

It`s a Hungarian AMD65 with a 16" barrel. I`m planning on having it chopped, pinned and welded to the proper 14.5" length, but I can afford to really do anything I want with it, after all - it`s unfired! Zero burnt carbon on the bolt face, absolutely nothing on the piston, bore is immaculate. Not bad for $390 shipped. Not bad at all.

I will now accept congratulations. :wink05:

I`ve been on a hot run lately, except for the H&K I`m still waiting for from South Sound 911. I paid $100 more than I should`ve. :angryfire:

But yes, I`ve been doing well dealing.

Thank you, and who needs one when I have a jaw thing that goes to the side?

Good deal for an AK that isn't very common. Who made the receiver and where'd you pick it up?

It`s a FÉG receiver, it came from the classifieds on another forum. The out of state seller sent to our resident Dreadi.

I might make some, but when I have the ability to mod standard handguards to fit, I have no real reason to.

I removed the forward grip and modded a glock 20 +2 mag extension into a hand stop. Trying to rock 30rd mags past that forward grip is just maddening!

Pretty much any import (except the Polish "Pioneer" rifles) curbstomp domestic AKs like the VSKA, PSAK, and IO with ease. :wink05:

The AMDs like this one haven`t been imported for a few years, when they were they sold for around $550, they were a good competitor to the WASRs if a guy wanted something a little different. Now they`ve dried up (and I hear the FEG factory is closed down) so we won`t be seeing them again anytime soon.
