I bought two of these firearms and they are GREAT. Buds charges a decent price plus they have layaway and give free shipping on firearms. Both guns are military surplus so expect them to have some sort of covering (grease, cosmoline) and since these are new guns they do need to be broken in. Just break em down, clean them with some hoppes no 9, and shoot the heck out of them. The difference between these and the other dracos that bud sells is the trunnions. This model does not have the folding trunnion, it instead comes with a cleaning rod. Mine are accurate, durable, and came with cleaning rod as well as two magazines per pistol. I would recommend to anybody looking for an ak to pick one of these up. Great also for sbr work.

This was my second online buy and Buds has one of the best prices out there and shipping was pretty fast. This Draco does NOT have the underfolder rear trunion so if you want that get the "C" model. Anyways mine came with a cleaning rod and two mags. The box it came in was kinda ripped up and it would have been easy for stuff to get lost so if Buds took a min and rapped it with some shrink wrap it would have been great. The magazines were old and dirty and the feed lips were damaged so I can't reliably use the mags and I ended up ordering more mags anyways. I would have appreciated it more if they actually send out good used mags but I guess you can't have it all these days.
Overall I am pretty happy with this AK pistol and the cheapest I found these pistols locally was $400. My Draco did not come with a TAPCO trigger, it looks like it's the factory Romanian and all the numbers on the pistol match so that is good. The finish isn't anything fancy but I don't care because I like how AKs look good when they age and get all scratched and the finish comes off. I did do some polishing to make the action smoother and I also cleaned up some sharp edges and stuff like that. The muzzle nut was welded on mine also and it just used my crappy tools and grounded off the weld off. I have a AR style bird cage flash hider on mine..... the pistol has the standard AK threads on the barrel .... 14x1 LH threads.

If you get a chance buy one because who knows how much longer we can buy toys like this. Cool thing is that since I am licensed to conceal carry I can by law conceal carry this pistol lol. Like a lot of people say, this makes a great car/truck gun...... what other "pistol" can you buy that has 75 round capability? You have a lot of options with this firearms.... you can SBR it, you can AOW it or just keep it as a pistol and just use a single point harness.
