Which of these guns are worth the money?
I saw a few used guns for sale this week at a couple shops that I am considering buying. Which of these would you buy?
1.Arsenal AK in 7.62x39 95% SSR 85C-2 with sheet metal receiver.$299
It says Made in Bulgaria, but also is stamped Arsenal USA
2.Older Remington 760 85% in 30-06, metal buttplate, 1958. $249
3.French MAS 45 .22 Trainer, made by Mauser, 98%, sling, 2 mags. $349
4.Marlin 1894 Octagon 44 magnum, Lyman receiver sight, 98%, 1973, $459
5.Saiga M-12, 12 GA, 19 inch threaded barrel, 98%. $359. So far this is the only one of the five I've bought. I already own a Bulgarian AK but it has a milled receiver.
Thanks for any replies.

I would buy the Arsenal if it is good shape. Arsenal makes great Ak's. If it is in good shape the Marlin might not be a bad buy maybe a little high. 0 -
The Arsenal AK & the French trainer are definitely worth the money. Specially the trainer, I've seen them going for a lot more to collectors. Long as it's in original condition, VG or better. 0 -
Yea I wouldn't pass up that MAS 45 trainer. 0 -

The AK is a good deal. 0 -
Thanks for your replies. As I mentioned earlier, I did buy the Saiga 12 shotgun already and as a result of your suggestions, I put the AK, MAS 45, and Marlin 44 on lay-away this afternoon. The Marlin was bought for $399 and the Mas 45 for $335. The price on the Arsenal AK was firm at $299. Thanks again! I am especially looking forward to shooting the MAS 22 rifle. It didn't have Mauser markings but it is still a very nice piece. Anyone know of a good site that has information on the MAS? I've done some searches but found very little. 0 -

GOOGLE, "Rimfire Central". There is a lot of information regarding various .22 trainers on the site. Use the search function to pull up information on the MAS.0
