I've got an older Arsenal, back when the receivers were from Russia and love it. While it was a little more pricey than many others, the quality is there big time. It only has a few thousand rounds through it but It maintains around 2 MOA if not slightly better. However, Arsenal has gone through many problems and are now all made in Bulgaria; with their finish being one of the bigger downfalls. After seeing some of the DDI's and reading reviews they seem like the best bet for an AK around $800 and made in the USA; one that works from the USA. That's what I'd go with.
