Anyone else build AK-47s?

Steve,
Nothing slumming about AKs. They are great shooters and completely reliable under the worst circumstances. I've got a Bulgarian and a Romanian WASR 10 with an expanded well and they are both great rifles. It's kind of disheartnening though how the price of 7.62X39 ammo has gone through the roof in the last few months. Some folks attribute that to hoarding because of the anti-gun stance of some of the current Senate and House Majority leadership, but it I believe that it started to climb before that and it's purely decreased supply and increased demand because of other material shortages worldwide.
Too bad, because AKs eat up ammo pretty quickly and they are really fun to play with.
