I had a Romanian RPK I took in on a trade once. It was as rough as a corn cob and didn't stay in the safe for very long. I personally couldn't grasp the concept. It was heavier and more cumbersome than a regular AK and not any more accurate.

Have you looked at the Romanian PSL's. Those are reasonably accurate, reliable and built to take a beating. I had one that would shoot the occasional MOA group. Not a tac driver by any means but accurate enough to keep things interesting. I hadn't checked the price lately but the use to be pretty reasonable.
