What is a PAR-3? link to quoted text (http://www.gunsnet.net/Linx310/model2.htm)
A PAR-3 is a P.D.B (Produced During assualt weapons Ban) Romanian pump action clone of an actual Romanian prototype rifle, that utilized the 5.56*45 round to be in compliance with NATO . This rifle has a pistol grip and can accept Hi-capacity magazines made for the SAR-3. The rifle is the results of "niche" market for those in states, such as California, a chance to own a rifle similar to the SAR-3. This rifle uses a pump action to cycle the rounds and is not semi-automatic. It uses the standard United States 5.56*45mm cartridge. The fit and finish of this rifle is average. There are a few reports of trigger slap but I have not heard enough of them to warrant any concern. The pump action system I assume is still based on that of the Kalashnikov design so reliability is probably good unless one doesn't complete the pumping action all the way. I do not know what exactly the part count is (if you know email me) but it's probably close to that of the SAR-1. The advantages of this rifle are its very cheap domestic ammo, ability to use hi-capacity magazines, and that it can be owned by those "trapped" in states where semi-auto versions are banned. I would stay away from this rifle because they are expensive, they most likely lose some of the reliability the AK is know for, and replacement parts are probably impossible to come buy. These go for about $360 but don't pay over $400.
