I have like 6 magazines all nj legal 15rd mags... the aimpoint is gone.. but it could come with that mount gun shoots great... obviously very reliable... i actually have a couple Saigas but am in the market for a 308 so thats the only reason id consider it.. i also have a decent amount of wolf in 7.62 that would probably go with the gun..

 

let me know what you think..

this is well over a $1000 just in parts.. plus its already built... not to give the wrong impression.. i am not eager to part with this.. but i do happen to be after a 308 AR and you happen to be after a russian AK... so its just kind of a good match..

 

we could possibly work something out with the ammo as well.. i know i have between 500 and 1000 rounds of wolf..

 

you would need to sight in the iron sights as i always just used the Aimpoint...

308 is an easy round to reload, and the parts are available. Just bought 500 Sierra Matchking 168gr bullets at Midway for around $120, and also some new brass at Cabelas. Varget powder is easy to find.

 

So, you can have match quality ammo for around 50 cents a round.

 

I did not enjoy shooting my LR-308 once I realized how terrible the trigger was. It was like moving a 8lb weight across sandpaper. I just installed a Timney trigger, and now that rifle is one of my favorites.
