There currently is a Valmet "AK-47" for sale on gunpost for 8 grand. It's not as nice as OP's though

Looks like that one is a milled receiver version in .308. The one I used was a stamped receiver version in .223

That's crazy I get that there was only a couple hundred imported but damn that's a alot of money when you can just buy a type 81.

Type 81s are awesome, but it’s no AK 😉
