I was looking into getting an AK in the future but I wanted to know what the current market looks like here. I heard that the U.S. market looks like absolute shit...anyone care to elaborate? Are there AK rifles out there still worth getting at a "reasonable" price?

Seems like DDI and Arsenal can still be found at a somewhat reasonable price.
Beyond that everything seems overpriced.

Define reasonable. With AR mass production driving down prices, and limited AK imports, reasonable isn't straightforward.
If you do your research there's still deals out there. WASRs can be had for $600-650 if you hunt around. Get creative and focus less on turnkey complete AKs. The other option is wait for a new wave of Arsenal and Cugir imports, and hope it comes before any potential gun legislation, but don't expect prices to drop much.

WASR, Arsenal, Definitive Arms.

To me anything under $900 is reasonable considering the current political environment. I had no idea what brands are still worth getting or where to find them honestly.

Can confirm, got my first WASR few months back for 675, came with two mags.
