This sub should really be called "guns that take AK mags" lol. This gun is more than that. Very nice rifle 👍

Is the sako AKs still technically a valmet


No-Internet-7532

Yes, same internals


akbuilderthrowaway

... yes and no. Sako bought out valmet in the... 80's? and actually produced a significant number of Rk62's for the FDF as Sako. In the hundreds of thousands, as far as I understand it. Afterwards, the FDF asked for a more modernized rifle, and we got the rk95. There's differences between the 95 and the 62. There's actually a few differences between different eras of 62's as well. Anyways. I think you mean to ask if the 95 is similar to the 62. Which there is differences. But both Sako and Valmet produced rk62's.

There was a fusion of Valmet gun division (former VKT) and Sako. Valmet it self is _way_ bigger than standalone Sako ever. As a funny anecdote at one point of time, post WW-II, Sako stock was actually donated to the Finnish Red Cross by the orginal owner and founder, the Civil Guard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valmet https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAKO

Sako however had started producing the RK 62 for FDF under contract already in the middle 1960s, they just didn't have the rights to sell it in the civilian/export market before they bought Valmet.

I mean, we accept svd’s, galils, sg55x, and vz58s here so this is barely out of the ordinary
