An Arsenal/Legion/FIME that comes factory converted would be worth more, but most likely it's someone's converted saiga. Without knowing who built it and what parts they used to convert it the gun might only be worth $300. Base gun probably only cost 350-400 and you can convert for ~$100.
Brand new might be worth more but I assume this is used. The problem with the AK market is that the devil is in what parts are used and what mags they are. Without knowing specifics it's really hard to price. 'Russian' doesn't really mean much because of all the converted saigas on the market.
The market is whatever someone will pay for it, but honestly I wouldn't pay much for a used AK unless there's something special about it. Likely in a month or so we'll be flooded with them and great deals will be had new. Frankly, rather than buy used if I were to do it inexpensively I'd rather buy a cheap unconverted saiga for ~400 new and pick the parts I want to convert it with.

I don't believe it's a Saiga or Wasr. I also don't think it has been fired much if it all. When he gets it I'll get the specifics of it, upload a few pics. The owner of it currently is a class III dealer in Texas, some ATF guy.
