Duration: 19:11

The Romanian WASR-10 UF underfolder rifle is reviewed as a functional, military-grade AK, though its current $800 price point is considered high. While it offers 'minute of man' accuracy and serves well as a durable 'truck gun,' its build quality, particularly the wood furniture and crude sights, is criticized compared to higher-end alternatives like the Arsenal SAS M7 or Atlantic Firearms M65 kit build. Palmetto State Armory rifles are suggested as a potentially prettier and cheaper option for casual users.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main criticisms of the Romanian WASR-10 UF rifle?

Criticisms include potentially less durable 'blonde' wood furniture, crude sights that can be canted requiring significant adjustment, and a high price point of around $800 for its build quality. The packaging from Century Arms is also humorously described as crude.

How accurate is the WASR-10 UF rifle?

During range testing at 100 and 200 meters, the WASR-10 UF demonstrated 'minute of man' accuracy, meaning it was sufficient for hitting human-sized targets. However, significant sight adjustments were needed to achieve this.

What are the differences between current WASR-10 UF and older AK underfolder stocks?

Current WASR models use flat-ground tube steel for stock arms. Older military kits, like the M65, often feature more refined stock arms with machined scallops and weight-saving cuts for improved design and reduced weight.

Are there better alternatives to the WASR-10 UF for casual AK owners?

Yes, the reviewer suggests Palmetto State Armory (PSA) rifles as a potentially 'prettier' and possibly cheaper alternative for casual users seeking an AK-pattern rifle. They offer a different aesthetic and potentially better value.
