Hello All,
I was cleaning out my closet and came across some AK-47 Related items and thought I put them to the group for thought.

I have the following for sale....

2- Romanian AK-47 Parts Kit bought in 1991 all parts matching, wood is real nice, of course it has threaded muzzle and all that.........I paid 75.00 for it back then and will take the same now!
You can e-mail me @ XXXXXXXXX

I think I will be fine, Im just not so sure that it is a Romanian kit...(No big deal, I have built 3 now)..If I get hosed ( I doubt I will) I have been hosed for lots more than that amount of $$ at a Washington Hometown Forum drinking party.

I bought 2 Romy kits a couple of years ago.  They seem identical to the "G" kits that we are getting now, except mine don't have the "G".

Nope.  No black bands and no orange "G".  I got them from Inter Ordinance and they also didn't come with selector stops either.  But on the bright side, when I contacted them for the selector stops they sent them right out to me with 6 brand new rear tangs too.

Sounds like those earlier kits were actual Romanian Military issue and not like the black banded Patriotic Guard ones currently available.

I got the kits through a group buy on Weaponeer.net quite a while ago.  I have no idea how long ago or how much they were because I am gradually losing my mind.

You sound like a Fed, just moved here from California, only met you once....

Why dont you call up CaptKirk and you two can get something going.



I did get the kit, it was in great shape, but not matching ( It was advertised as all parts matching), Beautiful peble wood...I would have to say it is in the best shape I have seen on a Romi kit, ( I have a few romi kits)
