Which One

**cruzans** · January 8th, 2011, 08:01 PM

I'm still trying to decide on a new "toy". Looking strictly for fun and something different - which way would you go and why ?

CIA Wasr RL1405N - underfolder 7.62x39 with compensator, Bayonet, 2-30 round mags and cleaning kit for $449
or
Masterpiece Arms Defender 9 mini 3.25" in digital camo with threaded barrel and barrel extension for $413

Trying to decide based on fun factor, reliability, etc. - plus, which is the best deal now and which one might be available at the price for a while?

Both will take some abuse. The MPA is cheaper to shoot, but limited as far as distance. With what you are getting in the AK package, it is a better deal. Also, the MPA's are prone to bump firing when you do not want them to.

The MPA is a bulky, awkward pistol that's difficult to shoot accurately one handed, but will hone your skills w.r.t. two-handed shooting "from the hip."

IMO, of the two choices, you are much better off with the AK clone.
