$220 = 1080 rounds of 7.62x39
vs
$220 = 200 rounds of 7.62x51 (.308)

You be the judge. :)

Does Tapco make suitable AK mags?

I am trying to narrow down between a Zastava M70 NPAP, a Century C39V2, and a VZ2008....The VZ2008 is cheapest but the mags seem to be about $15/pop

I've never had any issues out of the Tapco AK47 mags - was at Academy earlier and saw them selling Magpul AK mags for $13.99

You need to come over and shoot my VZ before you buy anything. Let me know when.

@ArtVandelay you will always get the response that one is better than the other but you just can not go wrong with either 308 or 7.62X39.
I like the way you are heading about the AK, and if PSA will have that sale going on till I get Paid I will own a AR style 308 as well @AirOpsMgr so damn you for pointing this out LOL.

Mags are cheap. How many do you need?

At least 10.

How many rounds do you have through yours? Have you had "the gremlin" and/or have you tabbed your bolt carrier?

Reading about how the VZ2008S NEED to have a tab welded on has admittedly put a sour taste in my mouth. Otherwise, if the mags are around $10 then it is an awesome gun on paper. The weight is great and the ergo sound like they are vastly superior to an AK.

So..without getting into details...the price difference between a PTR91 and a VZ2008/mags/ammo is now only $150.

I LOVE this process!

Lol I don't. I get way to ocd about making the best choice that I agonize over rediculous details.

VZ2008 with 2 mags from PSA is $417 shipped. 5 mags are about $95. A case of Wolf is $220. Total: $732

PTR91 16" GI: $800 with 12 mags.

C39 V2 with a case of ammo and 3 mags :$1000. I am very impressed by the C39. The fit and finsh is amazing.
