Need a little advice. Looking at 2 ak47s. Both are in the same price range. One is brand new made in Romania. The other has fired approximately 2000 rounds. But the used rifle was made in the Soviet Union. The rifles appears to be in good shape and though used, I beleive it was cared for. Nit to mention the reputation the ak has for being durable, 2000 rounds may mean nothing. So the question....brand new romanian or yugoslav, versus a used but apparently healthy Russian?
