Found this just now......

If it is half as good as the original M70 it will be a nicely built accurate rifle.The M70 didn't have the chrome-lined barrel commonly found on most other AK variants which gave them better accuracy compared to most, although it did make thorough cleaning more important when using corrosive Berdan-primed military ammunition.

Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.....give a man a bank and he can rob the world!.
More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!

Re: New straight-pull AK variant on the market
Oh this puts me into a bind!
I almost dropped money this month to buy a WS 1.64 but held off for various unrelated reasons. Zastava make some of the best AK variants in the world, problem is I don't want the plastic fantastic foregrip and side fold stock. I REALLY wanted the classic wood look! This puts me in a bind, do I go for the look I want or the better made gun .....uggghhhh!
If Oleg could get in some Zastava with the classic wood I would personally bite my arm off!

Re: New straight-pull AK variant on the market
To be honest I also prefer the more traditional wooden furniture, and don't be put off the Romanian.....I've had mine nearly 6 years and love it but I just had to "Soviet-ise" it as the blonde Romanian hardwood furniture doesn't compare to Soviet laminated Birch.Fedaykin wrote:Oh this puts me into a bind!
