A gun that once cost around $449.99 is now selling for $569.99 and up. Two months ago I could easily search budsgunshop for a Draco, and they were available. Go ahead and check the buds link in the prior sentence. Yup gone, not available and out of stock. Here's some kleenex for tears.The sudden rise in popularity is great for Century International Arms. There's a little part of me that enjoys seeing companies prosper through their labor. On the other side...I'm looking at the price go up monthly. To you guys who are just getting started with firearms just remember this. At some point the guns you see conveniently
accessible won't be. Imagine firearms being like the mercedes-benz line up. The different car and truck classes are justified by the individual vehicle's capabilities. Well the Draco is apart of it's own class as well. They have a couple sort of nicknames like pistol-rifles, M4 pistols and AK pistols. I'll let you all in on a couple other guys that have the same first impression as the Draco. As a word of advice, if your looking to purchase a Draco now. Before current inventory is fully depleted visit peppergunshop and sign up for the notification of new inventory. Atlantic firearms has an option to be notified as well. Let's take a look into a couple of the guns that give you rifle power in a pistol package.
Kel-Tec PLR-16 |
CIA HG3089N PAP Handgun 7.62X39mm 10" Barrel
Your thinking that's another Draco and it isn't. It looks similar because CIA distributes the gun. Now budsgunshop has some available for sale now. PAP is gas-operated like the other members of it's class. Unlike the Kel-Tec and just like the Draco, it's made of metal. That's something you want when shooting the AK round out of a pistol essentially. It's 5.89lbs compared to the PLR's 3.42lbs. the government agency of course. One difference that you can tell off the bat is its s little more snubbie. It shoots the same round, but out of a 10 inch barrel. The sights are fixed, so don't think you'll be able to do some long range shooting. You do know that these guns are made for closer quarter targets. Slickguns can give you all the details and online retailers that have this gun for sale. The current flood is for the Draco, but as that dries they will come for this little puppy. Only thing is that this lil puppy has a very large bite.
CIA HG3083BN C39 PISTOL 7.62X39 30R
Doesn't that motto go something like, "If it ain't broke don't fix it"? Well yes them again CIA has another version of a pistol rifle. Actually when I first read the model I said hummm...oh it's the C39 rifle in a pistol version with an 11.5' barrel. I like the tactical rails at nearly all sides of the forend. Here's a more professionally detailed description provided by budsgunshop. The Centurion 39 line of semi-auto rifles has become popular. All made in the USA machined from a solid 11 pound block of 4140 steel.The Ak style pistol has a picatinny rail for mounting optics and flip of rear sight. The barrel is finished off with a M16 style birdcage muzzle brake. The Pistol comes complete with one 30 round magazine, Bulldog tactical gun case, and 1 year manufacturer warranty.
Updating this list of firearms within the same category will take some time. I'm up for the challenge if people would me to find more guns like these. Leave a comment below if you think so.
