I bought a WASR-10 AK several weeks ago. It was pretty expensive by previous market prices, but since everywhere is out of stock, how did I really do?
I paid $760 for:
-WASR-10 AK rifle
-2 30 round magazines
-Cleaning kit
-Bayonet/sheath
-Mag pouch
-Sling
-60 rounds of 7.62x39
-Sales tax
Yeah it sounds like a lot, and it was. But assuming I wanted all of those accessories, which I did, and wanted the standard, 7.62x39, basic wood stock model, could I really have gotten a much better deal?
I look online and see prices listed between $400 and $600, but they are all out of stock. I saw it as... a $700 rifle in my hands is better than a $400 rifle on my computer.
Taking into account every factor that it would take to get everything I listed into my hands... sales tax, FFL, shipping, etc. could I really have done much better, assuming I wanted to buy new?
