This one has a two inch sleave tack welded to the FSB.
The barrels on these were supposed to be de-threaded. Just the name stamp.Īlso I have questions on the Front Sight Block. No Norinco symbol on bottom of receiver or on either side. Interstate is in Billerica Ma right? Then CSI is in CA. The right side in the lower rear corner actually hidden by part of the stock is INTERSTATE ARMS Mine does not have sporter on it but has NHM90 instead. Wierd too is after 1990 they were sporterized and stamped MAK90 Sporter right on the receiver. What's up with the 022? What year of import is that? In other words it may have a serial # of 912293 meaning imported in 91. They claim that after the Clinton ban that all serial #'s on MAK 90's started with the year of import from 90-94 when they were not brought in any longer.
I do have some questions that I can't seem to find in 2 days of research. It has the original Chinese double hook trigger and in comparison to the Tapco's I have in my other AK's I might have to say it's better. It's the first time I've ever put one in my hands and I was very impressed with the quality and how smooth the action/trigger were. Got it for $400 with the Chote stock set installed along with the original wood sporter set and 3 - 30 rnd mags.
