I keep going back and forth on my next purchase. I only have $500 to spend and came down to the following 3.

1. Centerfire Bulgarian AK HiCap $399, need rework on receiver end because they have a block off plate. That's no problem.

2. Centerfire M10 AK $499, looks good does not need work and is not a century, but is a romanian and does not have the dimples.

3. Classic Arms Saiga AK $449 (already converted except for FSB, that is also not an issue)
About 1/4 down the page http://www.classicarms.us/semi-auto%20rifles.htm

They all come with chrome lined barrels. Give me a reason to buy, or not to buy one

I'd lean toward the Classic Arms Saiga - but I'd go for the $299, unconverted rifle and do the conversion myself. You've indicated the FSB on the converted model is not a problem, so I assume you have access to the needed tools & skills to finish out the rifle as you want it. For the $150 difference, you can probably do a full conversion and have a little ammo money left over.

Saiga for $300 and get a conversion kit for about $150.

Do it yourself.

So, what did you get?
