What's the general opinion on the Bulgarian SLR-95?

Posted by JohnF on January 20, 1999 at 01:51:10:

I am interested in buying an AK-style semi-auto. I have read a couple of articles recently in various gun magazines about the SLR-95, and it got good reviews. Several people on various gun boards and newsgroups have praised it as well as one of the better makes. I have the opportunity to pick up a copy at a decent price, so I would like to know if the experts on this board think this is one of the better AK-style rifles. I am looking for a reliable shooter, something I can take to the range and run several boxes through without a problem.

Also, of the numerous makes of magazines available, which are the ones I should get? I'm not interested in collector value, just shooting reliability.

Thank you for your assistance,

John F

    • While not sharing the opinion that the person above is a "retard," he is correct.! It is perfectly legal to use high-cap magazines in any of these post ban guns. Bailout 05:21:03 1/21/99 (0)
