#1 S&W Model 28, 'Highway Patrolman' a very sturdy pistol which originally sold for less than half the asking price in this article.

Nice investment portfolio, if we can keep it.

#3 I got a hankering to pick up an AK 47. Does anyone have a recommendation? Mostly just looking for a plinking rifle.

I figure someone on Rantburg might have an opinion to share ;}

#5 AKs are pretty much a commodity, so quality comes down to who assembles it. The key issue in AKs is the feeding of ammunition and spent shell ejections.

Problems in AK comes down to two: ejection issues and bolt over base issue, both problems are imminently fixable with the assembler, in the case of a new build, or a gun smith in the case of a personal build.

As a personal note, the AK is a helluva fine rifle.
