I am thinking about getting either a Krebs ak or rifle dynamics for a fighting ak and classes. Is one better than the other for serious use? I know krebs uses childers receiver and polish and us parts not sure about rd. I am new to custom aks.

I'd get a base Arsenal and customize it from there. Most of the stuff they add isn't even necessary and you may find you want something set up a little different. An SLR 107FR or SAM 7 milled variant would also hold it's value over the US made variants and is original.
Is this your first AK or just the first custom AK you're looking into?
I did the Krebs thing way back when (hence the screen name). I still have a shotgun, but the KTR and others have been sold off. I spent the money and waited the time - a LONG TIME - but that was before the days of good quality AK rails, sights, and after market doodads.. I would struggle to justify the price now days. Maybe if you are doing an SBR or something more complex, but for a basic AK, I'd get an Arsenal and take the extra money and buy mags and 8M3.

If a large number of people are willing to kill you for saying something, then it probably really needs to be said. .
I'm an AK collecting whore, but I have to say that I think that for the money you'd spend on a Krebs ak or a Rifle Dynamics ak, there are better options. Arsenal does have the best configuration options, but their quality is sub par. If I was going to buy my first ak and it had to be something that's currently available new, I'd probably go with a IWI Galil Ace. If I was open to AK's that are not available new, I'd probably try to hunt down a Chinese or Hungarian AK. The days of the AK being the best value are past. Of course it's not always about the money.
It is my first ak. I just want one really reliable and I like the features of the krebs. Does anyone know if childers receivers are just as good as morrisseys?
I’d check out a Galil Ace too.
If you've got the bank, these look pretty interesting. https://www.getzone.com/krebs-custom-pd18-ak-pistol/
