Hello! New to this forum and wanted to say hello. Have a few questions about the NHM-90 rifle that I am thinking about buying. Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought that these models all came in with thumbhole stocks. The one I am looking at is in Pre-Ban config. It is being sold with a shorter barrel and I thought that these all had longer barrels. Oh, whats the H in NHM stand for?

Hey- What does yours look like? I still dont know if all NHM90's have the same stock configuration. Do you know anything about this variant? NHM--definition? I have my hooks into some clips now, hope they dont get away.

All NHM-90 rifles were imported and sold with a thumbhole stock.
Click on the link for the Chinese Rifles page and scroll down to the NHM-90 info.

HarrySacz,
A 7.62x39mm NHM-90 will use any AK mag or drum. The 5.56 NHM-90 rifles use the Norinco mags.
Some of the NHM-90 rifles like some of the NHM-91 rifles had a rivet in the receiver between the mag catch and mag well to prevent the use of any mag that didn't have a slot milled in the rear tang on the mag. The rivet head would fit into the slot so the mag would lock into the rifle. This rivet serves not other function and is not required by any law so it can be removed so any mag will fit in the rifle. Check the NHM-91 info on the Chinese Rifles page as it has a pic of the rivet.

So without the rivet any 223 AK mag will work?

Any Norinco mag will fit if you grind the head off the rivet.

Just put a punch on the welding bead, grab a hammer a give the punch  a light  tap.  The bead will come right off nice and clean like.
