Maadi RML AK 47 Long Barrel

[recon]

It's a PARS import. You don't see to many of these in the long barrel.

Why did that BUBBA put an aftermarket FOLDING STOCK ? Looks hella gay.

This is a PARS import which I haven't see in years. Not sure how many came in this configuration. Price is out outrageous though.

Can't say I have ever seen an RML in that configuration but it sure looks nice! As for the price, good luck seller.

That guy did some serious aftermarket upgrades. All of the PARS RML imports had crappy bulge grip AKM style foregrips. That's a SMOOTH SIDE dark cherry wood. Also all of the PARS RMLs were imported with shitty thumbhole stocks. All of the WOOD on that particular firearm is beautiful and definitely aftermarket.

On a side note, it's so sad that MATT from Ironwood Designs died so suddenly. His company made the best most beautiful wood replacements for all the AK variants. But that might be HIS work (aka the aftermarket wood furniture)

I have the Chinese version of that rifle and mine has that "shitty thumbhole stock" on it. They are great shooters...

Got pics? The Chinese RPK variants are SUPER RARE. Far more rare than the Maadi RML type rifles. Also I would argue that yours is NOT the Chinese version since the Chinese made a long barrel version of the Stamped Receiver 56S and this one is the Egyptian version of the AKM. which are two different and distinct AK variants.

IF you got a CHINESE long barrel (that is NOT an 84S) then you got a seriously collectible gun. Let's see it!!!! Pretty please!

NHM91 was the post-ban long barrel stamped receiver variant. Don't remember the name of the pre-ban but it will probably come to me tonight.

NHM91. That's it. That's the one I have.

I believe it was the Norinco 87S that was the pre-ban that led to the NHM91 post-ban.

You da man! Thank you! I got offered one for 400 clams back in the mid 1980s and I said no. I should have said yes. It's an UGLY DUCKLING for sure, but it's super rare now.
