Matt:

There are two possible considerations:

First:

Unfortunately if you live in California you cannot purchase an AK47 as it is
banned under California law as an assault weapon. Ownership or mere
possession of an unregistered assault weapon is a felony under present
California law.

There are several test cases in the works as we speak, which challenge this
law, but until it is repealled, forget the AK at least for the foreseeable
future.

Second:

If you live in a state, other than California, would purchase the milled
receiver version from Polytech using milled parts. The Polytechs use a dual
locking system which prevents hammer shear and multiple discharges of a
weapon from a single pull of the trigger (NFA statute violation), and a very
major safety issue. The major offenders have been from Norinco and those
made in Hungary, Rumania and Yougloslavia. The Polytechs are more pricey,
but Polytech uses the basic same components in their semi-automatic as their
exported select fire and full automatic weapons. In combat, an AK 47 will
weather the elements rather well, although beyond 300 yards it is impotent
for hunting  medium sized game and is too inaccurate for varmit shooting.

You might wish to consider spending more money and buy a legal to own and
posses without assault rifle registration requirements, either of the
following: Springfield Armory M1A or look for a good M-1 rifle. Both qualify
as match guns, can be used for hunting any game in  the US, and both are
increasing in value at a dramatic rate. Should you wish to do this, stay
away from those that claim to be re-imported and have a new receiver. If the
receiver does not say, Springfield armory, Winchester or Harrison and
Richardson (H&R), then don't buy it, have seen two commercial aftermarkets
litterally come apart
