A Little Bit of History on the AIMS 74

The Romanian weapons industry has always been very active, producing Soviet based arms for domestic use while at the same time vigorously exporting to every corner of the globe. The Kalashnikov rifle is obviously one of their best sellers, as Romanian variants are seen in every major conflict from Central America to Iraq and Afghanistan. In the 1980's, when Soviet influence and aid was still a factor in determining the equipment of Romania's own army, a decision was reached to start conversion of the standard infantry round from the M43 7,62x39mm cartridge to the new Soviet M73 5,45x39mm. Of course, this meant a revision in the Kalashnikov rifle made for the round. Romtechnica's eventual "AK-74" rifle is unique, and although it embodies features characteristic of the Soviet original, has many throwbacks to the AKM pattern in an effort to save expense. The final result is a true AK-74 with a unique flavor all it's own, making it very interesting to the Kalashnikov collector.
