Just throwing this out there...If your into projects and decent with tools and machinist/metal-work type stuff I would suggest looking into homebuilding a semi-auto AK especially if its going to be part of your collection. Check into local laws to see if it will be legal for you though. Pick a good matching numbers parts kit, buy a completed receiver shipped to your local FFL gun shop, and be sure to use at least 6 US made parts (out of those on the list) to be totally compliant. There's plenty of good info out there too.
