Does everyone have an SVD but me?...i hate my life.
Awesome! Now hopefully someone buys my AK and ammo lol. I'm honestly not an AK fan.
Before I would go with a Vepr I would think long and hard about a Yugo M76, either in 8mm or 308 model. Price isn't to unreasonable, ammo while not as cheap as 762x54r isn't stupid crazy, and the M76 has a milled reciever so you are not restricted to using LB ammo and heavier barrel than the PSL and still uses the AK operating system.
