AK-47 All About The Benjamins

The buy now price was $1500 on this gem:

It only made it up to $700.  I don’t know AKs so I don’t know what a Yugo M70AB2 “thick receiver” underfolder is worth, but $1500 seems high.  I guess a sweet paint job like that can command a premium though. :P

You can check out the expired gunbroker auction – HERE

Coming soon to a hood near you.  Think of how much of a status symbol a think like this would be!  If you had this and a gold tiger striped Deagle you’d be untouchable:

Imma give these fools a choice.. tha CHOPPA or the DEAGLE.  Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrap BrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraP it’s ovah!  2012 is mine playa!  Rat-ta-tat-tat 100 bullets from my choppa clip make a hater sick.

*facepalm* that was the best I could do without extreme profanity.

Thoughts?

  1. Assuming it’s a Century, it is only worth about $500 to begin with. The fact that it made it up to $700 because of some stupid pimp graphics just proves how dumb some people really are. I mean REALLY, just get a normal one and rattle can it gold if you want to be obnoxious!

  2. Sure is ugly

    A multi kit built Yugo with mismatched serials is really not worth a lot.

    I think $500 is about all you can ask for this. At the end of the day it’s a cheap, common AK with a well done paint job. Maybe ask the going rate for a Yugo AK the cost of supplies and shop time. $700 is even a silly number for this.

  5. I’m not ashamed to say, I love it. I wouldn’t pay $1700 for it. But I do love it.

  6. The $1700 nets you not just the gun, but also the title “That guy” at the range.

      ^ the truth right there. With a rifle like that you’d also have to be that guy that shot up all the target stands, didn’t pick up your brass or garbage, and had poor muzzle discipline. :P

  7. this was on ar15.com in the AK section, think the dude got it from a pawn shop for $3xx.xx if i remember correctly.

      Nice! Well good investment on his part then if he could have already dumped it for $700 if his reserve wasn’t so high.

  8. It’s a Century…which means that with the hydrographic dip kit job it’s worth about $600 give or take.

  9. I wouldn’t pay $1,500 for that unless it was covered in real, removable $100 bills.

  10. “I don’t know AKs so I don’t know what a Yugo M70AB2 “thick receiver” underfolder is worth, but $1500 seems high.”

    $1500 is high. The “thick receiver” is really misleading as well. ALL stamped Yugo/Serbian AK’s have a 1.5mm thick receiver. Standard stamped AK rifles, such as Russian, Romanian, Egyptian and so forth, have a 1mm thick receiver. The Chinese also use a 1.5mm thick receiver, but it is designed like the other 1mm receivers instead of like the Yugo/Serb receiver.

  11. It’s farb, and ugly… I’ll go for a Gold plated tiger stripe Deagle instead…

  12. I bet this would be a big seller at the “Gun Gripes” guys shop.

  13. Looks like he is keeping it per the ARF thread.

  14. fugly.

  15. Yugo AKs are of pretty good quality… and this would for sure be an awesome way to troll at the local range.
