Default Romanian AK

Did anyone else get an email from [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] which listed Romanian AK kits. The ad showed both a AK and AKM at reduced prices. I wonder if they have them in stock, so many times they list stuff and you find out they are out. Jack

I've heard they are NON-MATCHING numbers. i've dealt with them a few time and have had any real problems. just keep in mind alot of their stuff is surplus.
the best way to deal with them, is to call them . i deal with brandy.

Here is the wording from their site

ORIGINAL ROMANIAN MADE AK-47 (AKM) PARTS FOR STAMPED RECEIVER. THESE PARTS ARE RESTORED TO LIKE NEW CONDITION AND COME COMPLETE WITH STOCK TANK, TRUNNION, MAGAZINE CATCH AND TRIGGER GUARD. ALL PARTS COME WITH BRAND-NEW BROWN PLASTIC BUTTSTOCK, PISTOL GRIP, FOREARM, HANDGUARD AND GAS TUBE, A $34.95 VALUE! ACCORDING TO AN OPINION OF BATF, BARRELS ARE FOR REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT ONLY. BARRELS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BUILD 922(r) COMPLIANT GUNS. ALL BATF/NFA RULES APPLY.

It sounds like a refurb....Mike

They demil them then refinish them.
The cut marks on the receiver stubs have been parked.

I read that the Weaponeer buy is still on after I/O threw them a curve. They offered Weaponeer a 35 unit price that was higher than the unit price offered in their email.

I ordered two underfolders for $104.95 and was surprised by their condition. They had non-matching parts but the refinish and the bores were excellent. The came minus cleaning rods and brakes. The underfolders have three brown plastic parts: the lower and upper handguards and the pistol grip.

If you are on the email list, it would be a good idea to investigate the deal.

I ordered a fix stock AKM-47 from them and 3 of the original Romanian unissued 30rd magazines and a new AKM-47 bayonet. Called in the order on 08/26/04 and received the package on 09/01/04. The rifle parts were all there and in excellent to new condition just like the ad said. The magazines were in unissued condition. One of the mags followers did have signs of a little use but the mag body was unused (perhaps the follower was used at the factory for testing?). The Bayonet didn?t make it in the box so I can?t describe the condition. Called and talked to Brandy and she said it would be taken care of so I will see if it comes this week.

Over all I?m very happy with my purchase the one thing I will change when I get a chance is replace the German plastic furniture with wood. The stock reminds me a lot of the stock on my first Crossman air rile I had as a kid.
