Would this "Original red style AK" be considered a Russian variant?

AK 47 Original Red Style , these rifles closley resemble the original AK Rifles


considering the original AK was milled and an AK-47 and that picture shows an AKM and doesn't specify where the foriegn parts came from I would say I don't know what you mean by a russian variant. The original design is russian, so techinically they are all russian variants.

Most likely it is a romanain kit with an NDS receiver and a US barrel. But that is just a guess on my part.

It is a mixture of parts designed to be a cost effective AK build not an exact reproduction Russian  AK rifle.

I do want a cost effective ak, but I don't want to sacrifice any quality. What do you suggest?
