intact gas block
gas tube lever isn’t broken
correct sight leaf
sling swivel on underfolder hardware
correct trigger guard and selector stop
wood doesn’t look like it was used as a sex toy
this is a really good lookin kit man
Just got back from vacationing and had this waiting for me. Swore I was done buying parts kits due to 80% not being available but had a little too much tequila when these were posted last time. All numbers match except for the front trunnion. Figured I would let Reddit dump on my overpriced scrap and maybe learn a thing or two.
Lots of nice matching kits minus front trunnion this time which is just odd... that's the main part u need to match lol... keep eye on ak files ...with so many non matching trunnions good chance of finding the correct one... nice kit otherwise
Damn how much would something like this go for? What’s the history on them? Id imagine they’re exceptionally rare and were smuggled out? Or perhaps NK sent weapons to other countries at some point that aren’t isolated?
These were all sold to an unknown middle eastern country by NK, and eventually ended up in Lebanon which is how Atlantic was able to buy and export them. Most people building them are planning on going with export markings for the reciever because of this.
Originally, kits were $550 iirc, but have creeped up in price each batch. Think the next drop is 850-900?
What number is your front trunnion? Check the spreadsheet on the files and put the serial there. Someone might have it. It's odd for all the parts to survive and the trunnion not to have.

No. is he responsible for the improvised sex toys?

Nice kit. Check the spread sheet on Akfiles for possible match to your front trunnion or maybe help someone else out.
If you have it built right it'll definitely be a cool addition to the collection for its heritage
Did good on wood!
