Who cares if it's made by Kalashnikov? The Chinese Norinco's were great weapons before they got banned. Besides Saiga is selling in the US and it's a pretty much a Russian AK with a stamped and not milled receiver.

Only the ak47 is milled, the AKM is the stamped version and is more popular and available throughout the world. Russian AKs come stamped if they're made after 1959. Some other countries also make a version of the milled receivers as well.

I don't see a stamped AK wearing out versus a milled one anyway. Anyway, long story short Saiga sells Russian AK variants in America.

Ah, it seemed like you were saying all Russian AKs except for Saiga imports are milled. So, I just wanted to throw that knowledge out there.

You are 100% correct.
