Many would tell you that this was an AK-47 assault rifle... they would be wrong.



No, this is just a semi-automatic copy of the AKM made in China.
It looks scary to some, but it's a sweet shooting carbine and it's one of my personal favorites.

Behold it's simplistic design (enhanced by me with kit made in the USA).

Hello Community,

Yes, the AKM is very outstanding, and you have brought up a neat and excellent image of it.

Thanks,

@KnivesSwitchblade,
Welcome and thank you.

I modernized my AKM several years ago, the availability of quality kit is even better now.

I like the look of wood, on shoulder mounted weapons.

@OmSigDAVID,
I'm not a fan of plastic and stamped metal, either.

Most of my rifles are cellulose intolerant.

The stamped steel receiver on this AKM is the thickest/sturdiest you will find on an AKM.

You guys might love this:

Vepr rifle, mainly a hunting weapon, semiauto which uses Mosin (7.62x54) ammo which is cheap and plentiful and comes in various types including hunting ammo with 170 and 180gr bullets making it suitable for large game. Receiver is stamped but it's basically an RPK receiver i.e. the strongest stamped receiver there is in the world, accuracy is quite good, mechanism the same basic fool-proof mechanism of the AK.

@gungasnake,
Nice woodwork, indeed. The expression "lipstick on a pig" comes to mind. I like guns, but I'm just not into ugly.

Pretty is usually not very practical, but if wood and lipstick are your thing, go for it.
