It's actually for the wife. She liked the AK well enough, but complained that the handle was too thick, that it was a little too long, and a little too heavy. So from what has been said on this thread, the Ruck is just what she wanted. I had to wait for her to get home and okay it. I'm very pleased with the price I paid; I would have put it up for $1,000, and waited to post it for another couple of months, (seems like sthe hogs are kind of tapped out this month). I've done a fair amount of business with Scott. I bought all 7 of my AKs from him last year
