What to look for in an AK-47

Well, not for me, mind you.

My neighbor asked me to help him find a good AK-47.

With the many different "ians" and "ese" versions out there, which ones are good, which are absolutely to avoid, and what kinda money are we looking at.

Oh, and where is best place to get one.

CheaperThanDirt sell them at their showroom?

I'm no expert, but there's a nice thread here:

I am looking into the AK as well.

A lot of folks like the Vector classic or sidefolder in 7.62x39mm

I have been told the underfolders tend to loosen and get sloppy.
