    Default $699 WASR

    I saw a $699 WASR at Liberty Arms in Fort Collins, I actually haven't seen that price for a while on WASR recently, people seem to mark them up at $1000-ish.

    And to think they were $289 (and less) new. The SAR series that was before the Wild Ass Shooting Rifle were as low as $179. The SAR series were a little better than the WASR IMO.

    Bought my WASR underfolder waaay back in 07 for 389.00.
    Of course I recall picking up a NIB Norinco with all the accessories at "The Gun Room" when it was at 10th and Broadway in 82ish for 179.00.
    Went back a couple weeks later and picked up a HK91 for 799.00.
    All my friends thought I was nuts.

    I bought a 5-pack of SAR2s direct from Century in 2001 to get the special $169ea price for the bundle. Free shipping back then on orders o er $500.

    I like all things about them except no chrome lined barrels, in comparsion Chinese AKs offers everything Yugos do but with chrome lined barrel. I wish they can still be imported tho. I have made up my mind and started saving up for a Chinese AK with underfolder if i can find one next year after i finish my degree.

    Can't say that chrome lined barrel ranks high in my selection standards/criteria. I think I have 1 rifle in my selection that has a full chrome bore.

    Depend on what ammo you shoot, I still have shit tons of ccorrosive Yugo ammo in a can, would be silly to not have a chrome lined barrel, plus i plan to move some where near the sea if i can.

    There's a polytech spiker on theakforum for around 1350 as well as a mak90 underfolder for pretty reasonable too (reasonable for today's standards haha) either way I think chrome lining is a little over rated in a dry climate like colorado but to each their own. Chinese ak's are pretty decent too but in today's market you're probably going to pay a little more than a pap or a wasr. The point of my original post in this thread was (in my opinion) why would anyone buy a wasr over an O-PAP for the same price.

    I don't know about that.. all I have shot through my non-chromed 74 is russian/bulgarian which is corrosive and haven't had an issue. Camped out at Pawnee, didn't even clean it for 3 days and no issues. If you live in the south east along the coast and are dealing with salty sea air maybe it's an issue.. but then again just run some water through the damn thing and quit being a lazy ass.
