7.62 is cheap though, and so are AKs. A friend of mine just got a fairly reasonable one for $300 complete.

762x39 and 762x51 are in different price categories and we are talking about 51 AR's not AK's.

Just remember that in CA, if you want an AR, you have to:
1. Make sure it's an off list rifle.
2. Decide if you want bullet button or monster man grip.
Bullet buttoned AR's look like AR's, but you CANNOT use any mags with more than 10 rounds in it. And to detach the mag takes some practice to do it fast.
Monster man grip is ugly, but it allows you to use any mag you please. So if you have some pre ban mags or happened upon some 30 rounders in the trash, yours to use.
Theoretically you can transport AR's and any long guns in your car unloaded, but be prepared to be harassed, especially if it's a bullet buttoned one which looks like an "assualt weapon" to many untrained cops.

Make sure you put on a monster man grip on your AR, and that it's off list. We don't want you to have an extended stay with bubbas in close quarters.
