    i recently sold an early SAM7 to fund buying a 6920. the guy i sold it to has 26 AKs, and had the same attitude that i have...the milled arsenals are certainly the nicest AK around, but in the end they don't shoot any better than any other properly built AK. all of my guns are working guns, and although i like the idea of they gaining value, i don't stick them in the back of the safe and leave them there. KCI, AZresponse, and Rifle Dynamics all build AKs that will hang with the milled arsenals performance-wise. and the fact that these custom builds are built as hard working guns and kind-of lends to the thought that the milled receiver is just a novelty.

    as for long term investment value, it's anyone's guess.

    i had the arsenal for a little over a year and in that time it went up maybe $200. the colt i paid $1250 for about 3 weeks ago is going for around $1700.

    just my .02

    I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you here. Krebs build AK's that are more novelty than anyone else, and RD bills his AK's as "fighting guns"... sort of a novelty if you ask me.

    your opinion of krebs i can see. but i have run one side by side with my arsenal and the only difference was the krebs trigger was lighter.

    how is a fighting gun a novelty. to me a novelty is something unique or an item that people have, just to have.

    aren't fighting guns that what you guys strive for with the whole TDP colt, noveske, lmt being a tier above the rest argument?

    I am really on the fence with either rifle..I can see arguments for either being worth more and since I have both I'm not torn in either direction..It would be cool to get another 6920 as I think they are way more versatile as you can swapp uppers, etc...but an AK is an AK and the milled Arsenals are the best IMO..

    I'm headed to Chantilly this Sat if anyone wants to meet up there..supposed to be a great show

    I've personally only sold 2 guns in my life and regretted both. I just won't do it anymore personally.

    Does a "chart" exist for AK's anywhere?
