That's a great price Captain, especially if you get the ammo. $100 extra for 500 rounds ain't bad. I shot one of those Romanian AK's, shot great. I had heard they were on the lower end of the quality scale but we put a few hundred rounds down range with no problems. To bad I got too many lines in the water.

I got a couple of the Romie's back when they were around $300 ... Have shot probably 1K through one and it is still kicking without a problem .. I have never fired the other one ..

I bought one about 10 years ago. Think I paid $289 plus shipping. Sold it and got an AMD65 parts kit I am getting close to finishing.

Oh, I see those are WASR, mine was an SAR
