The Chinese RPK was brought in to America in the late 1980's.They had a 20 inch barrel, and came with 2 x 30 round magazines, and 1 x 75 round drum, cleaning kit, sling, and oil bottle. They sat with their bolts facing down in their boxes. These guns are very very rare and sought after by their respective collectors. You will not find one for less that $2,000.00 used, or as much as $3,000.00 new. They come up for sale very rarely. Typically brought in by Polytech, but some are also Norinco.
Here is a pristine and finest example I have ever seen from
The Valley Walker Collection.
The butt stock is similar to the Russian Club Foot butt stock. It has a nice look.
The front sight is located behind the bi-pod, with some type of fixed muzzle nut in front of the bi pod, and then a Type 87S RPK muzzle break, which is threaded on. These guns have the bayonet lug, although no bayonet could be affixed, with the exceptionally long length of the barrel.
This one was made at factory /416\ just like the most loved Polytech guns.
They all came in with a club foot stock, pistol grip, and blond furniture.
Thanks for looking. I want to point out that these RPK's were made and shipped to America in 7.62x39 (AK) ammo, as well as in .223 (5.56 Nato).
Here is a nice 87S with original muzzle break, and sporting a 40 round magazine.
I will not make a post of the .223 RPK here, as these guns are seldom seen and come up for sale rarely. Here is a picture of one, so you can identify it by looking at the magazine. That is the straighter .223 magazine above. Can you tell?
Looking to un ban a NHM 91, where can I find the correct rear shoulder stock?
ReplyDeleteMine did not come with a drum. It is only marked "AK47S 7.62x39 Made in China". It has no importer markings nor does it say Norinco or Polytech anywhere. Otherwise it's identical to yours. I've never shot it, just a safe queen.
ReplyDeleteI have one marked AK47S 7.62x39 Made in China and that's all the markings on it also. Came as in the pictures above. Bought it NIB back in the day. One of my favorites.
