1987 Vintage Norinco MAK-90 AK Sporter in 7.62x39 Caliber
** Unique "Caught In Port" Variation in Minty Condition! ** SOLD
Description: This 1987 dated all-matching Norinco Mak-90 is in superb condition, and is a very interesting "caught in port" variation that we seldom encounter. This Norinco AK started life in 1987 as a standard Norinco AK47S Underfolder but was "caught in port" by the 1989 U.S. import ban before clearing customs here in the States, or maybe even before leaving China. The importer, GLNIC in Los Angeles had to have the gun modified to be legally imported. As you can see in the pictures, the original model designation was milled/ground off of the left side of the receiver, the cleaning rod/bayonet lug was removed, and the underfolding stock was removed, the hole thru the receiver was plugged, and a modified bracket was installed to accept a thumbhole stock. After all of the modifications were completed the milled/ground areas were blued to match the gun, and the receiver was re-stamped with "MAK90" and the importer's information on the left side rear. Whomever actually did the modifications did a clean and professional job. Only these very early Mak-90's have the sought-after factory threaded barrel intact like this one. This particular Norinco is in excellent condition both inside and out and appears to have spent it's entire life in storage. If it has had more than a magazine or two fired thru it since it was new we would be very surprised. The gloss blue factory finish rates 98% on this Mak-90, and it was extremely hard to find anything to justify deducting 2%. The chrome-lined bore is perfect, mirror-bright with perfect rifling and no visible pitting, erosion, or imperfections. The original thumb-hole stock was replaced at some point with a solid wood Chinese military buttstock and pistol grip that match the factory solid wood forearm and handguard. All of the stock pieces are in excellent condition overall and free from any cracks, repairs, or visible wear. All of the stock hardware is intact and in excellent condition as well. As mentioned before, all of the numbered parts on this Ak are matching including the receiver, top cover, bolt, and gas tube. All of the internal parts on this gun are just as clean and free from wear as the exterior. All of the controls on this Mak-90 are in perfect working order, and the action slams into battery with lots of force. We have no doubt that this Norinco would shoot just as well today as when it was first built in 1987. If you have been looking for a new "collector grade" AK for your collection that is unique and will be a great long-term investment, this Norinco Mak-90 would be an excellent choice. It would be nearly impossible to upgrade from this one in condition or quality. *** We also have several Norinco 75-round drum mags and Norinco 40-round standard mags available in excellent condition for additional cost. SOLD Manufacturer: Norinco Model: MAK-90 Serial Number: 8709120 Caliber Info: 7.62x39 Caliber Bore: Minty Condition: Excellent Manufacture Date: 1987 Extras: Several Norinco 75rd Drums and 40rd Mags available at additional cost |
