I don't really 'run' an AK, but I do own them and shoot them.
The main reasons behind my ownership are the prices of the guns themselves and their ammunition. I have an older Waafen Werks Bulgarian 74 build and I just recently ordered a new WASR10 from Atlantic. Both were inexpensive rifles that run on cheap ammo and have relatively cheap accesories.
I also like to think of myself as a collector with a special interest in modern intermediate caliber military rifles, and you can't have a collection if those without an AK or two. My Waffen resembles an AK-74M and the WASR fills the role of a classic AKM. I'm also thinking of picking up an AES-10B because who doesn't love a cheap RPK?
