Digging in the back of the safe, pulled out what I was told was a Maadi when I took it on trade some years ago.
Im not finding any useful information on the receiver markings and am hoping you can help. Is it a Maadi? What's the receiver? What's the value of a 30 year old kit? Thanks Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Rear sight is Arabic.
Attached File The receiver has Russian writing and is marked by James River. Attached File |

That’s the same year as my maadi Arabic military kit OP assuming it has a us barrel and built by JRA who is not anything to write home about in terms of premium builders you still have great value in just the Egyptian parts |
