While the MAK-90 has its charm, have you considered how it stacks up against other AK variants? The build quality is solid but the resale value can vary greatly.
Exactly! Compared to the Romanian WASR series, I find the MAK-90 is generally more expensive due to its features and unique history.
Demand for the MAK-90 does fluctuate. I’ve seen listings go up during election years, suggesting potential buyers are concerned about future regulations.
Does anyone have a rough estimate of how many MAK-90s are currently on the market? I find that plays a big role in pricing.
I’ve heard there’s a significant quantity in private collections. That really controls the market supply.
I think that the MAK-90 is a great investment right now, especially with all the ongoing discussions about gun rights and ownership. Have you all thought about investing more in it?
I’m supportive of investment in rifles like the MAK-90, but keep in mind the potential for political changes impacting ownership laws.
True! That’s what makes predicting value challenging. Also, I wonder if aftermarket parts influence price as well.
Yeah! A well-upgraded MAK-90 could definitely fetch more. I’ve seen some tricked out with accessories go for over $1,500. Crazy!
Can someone remind me why everyone loves the AK-47 lineage? I mean, what’s the real allure over something like the AR-15?
The AK’s reliability and history make it appealing. The MAK-90 is like the cool uncle of the family, just with a very specific vibe!
I’d say the MAK-90 is like fine wine; it gets better with age. But can a rifle really be an investment? Just curious!
Absolutely! Just keep it in good condition and the potential rises. That said, it’s not exactly a stock market!
It’s important to remember that while investment potential exists, it’s also about personal enjoyment. Shooting a MAK-90 is a blast!
I’ve owned a Norinco AK-47 MAK-90 for a few years now, and I can say its reliability is top-notch. I’ve never experienced a jam even after thousands of rounds.
That’s great to hear! How does it perform in terms of accuracy? I’m curious about how it holds up at longer ranges.
In my experience, the accuracy is decent. It’s not a sniper rifle, but on average, you can hit your targets easily at 100 yards. More than sufficient for most uses.
That aligns with what I’ve heard! How about maintenance? Is it difficult to keep in good condition?
Maintenance is pretty straightforward. Just clean it regularly, and you’re good to go! The design makes it easy to field strip as well.
I’ve got the MAK-90 too. It’s definitely not a high-maintenance gun. I enjoy how I can have fun at the range without worrying too much about upkeep.
