SOG's Izhmash AK-47?

Just was wondering if any of you have ordered SOG's Russian Izhmash AK-47, advertised on their website in the New Products section? These look good and the price is certainly reasonable, but how's the quality? Anywhere close to the fit and finish of a Robarm AK? Any comments would be appreciated.
 
Although I haven't seen one up close, it's my understanding that it's a Saiga Sporter receiver which has been modified w/the requisite US parts to accept hicaps, pistol grip, etc. The work was purportedly done my Hesse. Again, I haven't seen one, but then I haven't heard much good about those who were lucky enough to get them before they went on backorder.

For what it's worth, I'd recommend getting a Global/Arsenal AK. Mine's incredible, see my thread.
 
Thanks for your input. I've got one of those Global SSR85Bs too, and it is definitely one of the nicer finished AK47s out there. The quality on Global and Robarm AKs is definitely up there.
