Where might I find a 5.45x39 AR-15/AK-47?

[Guest ScottD]

I've been looking to get something that fires cheaper ammo, so I can actually go to the range and not cringe with every trigger pull.

Does anyone know where I might pickup a AR or AK chambered in 5.45x39?

I saw several 5.45 AR15 uppers at Hero Gear... and AK74 clones are pretty common, can't say I've laid eyes on one recently, but haven't been looking.

The new Saigas are finally out. They just showed up in CenterfireSystem's catalog for 370 bones: Centerfire Systems, Inc. - Your Home For Ammo, Firearms, Magazines, and Gun Accessories

You can get both the 5.45 AR and the AK-74 at The Outpost Armory.

Good prices on both too.

Ok was out there the other day, but wasn't looking. Didn't want to make the trip again (about 30 minutes) and come up empty. But with this information, I will be heading out there again shortly.

Yeah, centerfire has some hard to beat deals. If I'm not mistaken they are the only ones with Saiga 5.45 ATM. At least they got the first shipment.

I've had good experiences with Centerfire so I can vouch for them, but Classic Arms also has some. Classic Arms Inc.

$340 there.

Hey ScottD, you need to start saving your brass and start reloading. I totally understand the connection between the cringe and the wallet. Reloading will help you out -- why don't you look into it, and when you do, I'd like to recommend the Dillon 550B press. Go to Dillon Precision: Reloaders, Reloading Equipment, Bullet Reloading, Bullet Reloaders and sign up to get a catalog sent to you. Good luck!
