I have a Mak90 that I have had in my safe since the 90s when I bought it at Roses Department Store for $199.95 and with all the hoopla and panic going on right now, I am taking a good look at it. It has the thumbhole stock that everyone hates, but what can a guy do, right?
Anyway, what I need to know is how can I tell by just looking at it without removing the stock if it's a stamped or milled receiver and if it's a slant cut or straight cut receiver? Do any of you guys have any pics that I can compare mine with?
thanks

My digital camera is kaput. I can text a pic from my cell phone if you give me a number or an email address.

If your receiver looks like this it's milled.

you should be able to tell if it's slant cut by taking off the cover and looking at it from that angle

It's stamped then. Mine doesn't have that cut. Can you tell a straight cut from slant cut without removing the stock?

Very easy to tell. If the back of the receiver is at a slant then it's a slant.
