I might be out of the loops but i thought these 7.62x39 veprs arent available new anymore due to sanctions. last time I saw them for sale they were around 1k and moving up. Thumbhole version NIB- $875-900 in factory trim https://www.gunbroker.com/item/788389864 Non thumbhole stock versions(folding stocks,etc)- $1300-1600 in factory trim Any upgrades will increase value.Thumbhole versions are not hot sellers,most dont want to modify the rifle to get it right |

If I can get one of those Zastava PAP M85 AK pistols chambered in 5.56 (like this one) for $450 should I buy it?
The only reason I didn't buy it yesterday is because some jackass painted it with what appears to be several layers of gold spray paint. |

Your welcome. I would try to get it cheaper if you can. Bring up the crappy gold paint and how much of a pain its going to be to fix it up. Try $400-425 otd.I bet this tactic works to bring the price down. With a brace on it and back to original condition its a solid $700-750. (Prices have slipped a bit since i last looked at them)Just depends on what is included that changes the price,so not quite half price from what they are asking.Still a great deal though |

Norinco 56S 7.62X39 imported into New York City, NY by SILE.
Pretty clean, metal is better than the wood. I'd put the wood at around 75% because of the many small marks/dents. Cleaning kit is with the rifle in the buttstock. No box, papers, original magazine or other accessories. I'd call it handled more than fired.

I would guess up to several hundred more just because they may be able to be purchased in those ban states and be legal to own. |

I have an Iraqi contractor WASR10/63 that I purchased from Altlantic Firearms a while back. I almost forgot I had it. It looked like it had been carried a lot and never fired when I received it. I probably fired 120 rounds through it, if that. It still has Iraq dust in the cracks and crevices of it. I can't find any completed listings for any that have sold recently that still shows the selling price. What is the value? Any help appreciated. I don't have any pics, it looks just like it came in the box, same furniture, same distressed finish, same dust.

Looking to see if I did well with this purchase.
Excellent condition GLNIC L.A. /66\ marked Mak 90. I can't seem to find any information on value or when these were imported that's not contradicted by the next thing I read lol. Features: What appears to be the factory threads are still intact. Chinese underfolder installed whether at factory or afterwards. Bolt carrier is blued. Bolt is purple (I guess also blued). Matching numbers. MS serial number. The bayo lug and fsb have been hit with a grinder. I have the slant break just screwed on to protect the threads. The detent has been wedged into the fsb somehow to where to in non-functioning. There is a cleaning rode hole through hand guard. To me it looks like a preban that was caught in customs during the start of the ban and neutered. It doesn't appear that the folder was installed later, but I could be wrong. That's where everything gets confusing and where information becomes contradicting. Some say no Mak 90's came with factory threads and/or folder stocks, and some say a select few made it in. I'm going to be debanning and installing a Spiker assembly on it here soon. Again, just curious as to what it's worth. Thanks for your contribution here!

I think a more realistic price would probably be $800 or so unless someone just had to have one that missed out on the small run that came back into the country in 2015.That person might be willing to go beyond $800 but i think to get the top dollar gunbroker would be the place to list it. |

A shipment of these (Mak90's) were already here in port and in the very early days of the ban the details of what could and could not be allowed into the states was confusing and from what i have heard over the years that first shipment a lot of the rifles were hurried through with minimal ban era changes. I have had 2-3 like this 2 folders and one fixed stock that had threaded barrels and ground bayonet lug and the rest were un touched with no Mak90 on the receiver.Look at the rear trunnion cover at back of receiver where it is angled back.If the metal is nice and smooth and no refinishing done it is most likely one that slipped in.If the metal is rough or the finish is un even the rear tang for the thumbhole stock was ground off by someone and the folder put on.Cant see it in the pics Anyways,its highly likely it is a norinco that slipped in under the radar with very few ban mods.Later shipments had thumbhole stocks and marked Mak90 which means Modified AK 1990,and some had sporter marked on them. If so its worth $1200-1300 price really wont drop much if its not a factory installed folder. The stock is a correct Chinese so that is a huge plus If the rear trunnion cover on the back is all ground up $1000-1100 Adding a front spiker FSB will jack up the price to $1500 or so Hope this helps and thanks for sharing your AK

It's factory, the rivet pattern for the rear trunnion is different from fixed stock to underfolder; you'd notice the work done to the rear end where rivet holes were filled in, etc.

Thanks FlyLeaf! The stamping is what has me confused actually. I’ve also heard no Mak90 stamped Mak’s were preban caught in custom rifles. Not sure how reliable the sources are lol this one is stamped Mak90, but the receiver looks like it may have been scrubbed due to the difference in finish as you can see in the pic. It’s hard to see in person except at the right angle. The trunnion cover definitely doesn’t look like a tang has been grounded off though. The metal and finish is perfect and smooth where a tang would have been. The finish on the corners of the cover is a little worn, but that’s all. The pic makes it look a little rough, but it’s not. http://i.imgur.com/543SmKml.jpg http://i.imgur.com/wQZUL5kl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Zo1GKMzl.jpg Quote HistoryQuoted:

There are even 3rd pin Mak90's out there that got sent into the country.Your is stamped Mak90 which is the most common but it still doesnt mean that it came in with a thumbhole stock.The rear trunnion cover looks right and like the other guy replied the rivet pattern is correct for an underfolder. With the better pics you provided with the finish wear or dis coloration to the bluing which can be from improper storage and not likely a scrub as the chinese usually just scuffed out what they would mark over. At the end of the day it is still a post ban Mak90 and will never be considered a preban so it has a bit of an interesting story to it but really doesnt change the value much at all. With the so so finish on the receiver the price i gave yesterday will drop a bit. As is $1100-1300 with the higher amount on gunbroker.Add @200-350 with the spiker on it |

Here it is! Still have to put the front sight post in and install the fsb retaining pins once I confirm accuracy. Also waiting on an OG Chinese muzzle nut to put on it and a Bulgarian bakelite upper that I’m going to modify to go with the lower I modified. I’m really liking the outcome so far though!

I’m really liking the outcome so far though! http://i.imgur.com/4VboZWVl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/in2A7A0l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SuM83MCl.jpg You should have a solid $1500 rifle now

A good friend has a stamped MAK-90 he is looking to sell. Neither of us know much about them, and I want to give him a fair price for it.
Here’s what we know about it - his dad bought it at a pawn shop in late 90s and shot it little, eventually it went to his brother and then later to him. It appears to be in excellent shape with expected blueing wear, stock dings, etc. It shot well with a Pmag, and pretty accurate for an AK. It had some function issues last time I shot it, but was shot with a questionable mag and ammo of unknown origin. Appeared to have some light primer strikes. Could just be the ammo. So, what is a fair price?

Bluing is a little rough in some of the pics,which makes it a great shooter grade AK. Price as is with a straight cut receiver $800-900 Price with a slant cut receiver- $750-850 These are private type or EE sale prices.Gunbroker might get a bit more depending on who is bidding. Recently i have seen some great deals on Mak90's that are either new or look new for @$750-800 so the price im giving you is more less a starting point to ask and feel the price if no one bites and drop it a bit. Positively dont sell it for less than $700 if a slant and no less than $775 if a straight cut Hope this helps |

Quote History*** READ this first****
Some of these have a rounded end cut receiver and are near impossible to get a AK stock on.Make sure you ask the seller to remove the current stock and send you pictures of the rear receiver cut!!! If it is rounded avoid buying this rifle unless you can get it for under $500 for a blaster type AK If it is straight ended cut like a standard AK then read below and buy*********** Even better than a SAR1. Buy it at $650,those only came into the country 1 year.Very sought after. I had a CUR2 in 5.45x39 with the upturned charging handle,damn good rifle as are the 7.62x39 Value $750-850 as is and if you put some nice wood furniture on it $1000-1100 on gunbroker due to being pretty rare. Be aware that the factory fcg SUCK on these,Trigger slap is insane. Grab a Tapco G2 or a ALG FCG right away along with a FCG retainer plate. Good luck and let us know the outcome |

If so you got a great deal on it.Would look great with some laminated Russian or Romanian wood.Russian would be my choice,which can be found on gunbroker,here in the EE,or akfiles. Swap out the trigger and have fun.

Havent seen one of these in a long time for sale in that condition with the extras. M90's are selling for $2500 in that condition,so yours being a pre ban M77 i would ask $3000-4000 with the extras and in that condition. No extras $2800 would be bottom dollar if you wanted a quick sale.Gunbroker will net top dollar.Probably sell easily @$3200-3500 and mark it buy it now with free shipping for $3800-4000 Just an estimate as i havent seen one in a long time.

@FlyLeaf
I got it
Everything looks good, action is smooth like butter, rear sight is fine, front sight has a small bit of cant 1* or less but sight picture is perfect. The barrel nut is tack welded but one can easily see threads. 1 double stack magazine came with it marked made in Hungary. Bolt shares same serial number as the receiver. Cannot wait to shoot it!
