Found and Purchased a milled MAK-91 today. Looked to be in near new condition. I own several stamped AK variants so this is my first milled. The rifle doesnt have a bayonet lug or a muzzle brake. Thumb hole stock. Was the MAK-90 the AK version and the MAK-91 a RPK type rifle. It does have a long heavy barrel (.685? dia.). If you own one could let me know your opinion. When it gets out of mandatory 7 day cool down period i'll post pictures. |

Check the Chinese Rifles page of my web pages for info on the milled receiver MAK-90 and MAK-91 rifles. mywebpages.comcast.net/jfreeman246/index.htm The milled receiver MAK-90 is a copy of the original AK-47. But the MAK-91 is not really a Chinese semi auto version of the RPK. But it does have just about all the features of a RPK except it has a milled receiver instead of the stamped receiver of a RPK. China never made the copy of the model RPK rifle but used the Type 67 a RPD copy. The closest the Chinese came to making a RPK is the Type 81 rifle. www.sinodefence.com/army/small_arms/type81rifle3.asp You got a good deal on a really good rifle. I have had one for many years and it shoots really good off the bipod. While the Chinese thumbhole stock sucks a Choate Draganov stock really improves the comfort of shooting it. |
 You can't forget the 86s-7, an rpk clone. That is strange as I don't think that I've ever seen any mention of this weapon on this site. They are a nice but few in numbers clone. Mad Max son of Madtechcool

I didn't leave it out. The 86s-7 is a not a clone but a RPK-ish looking type rifle made just for the US commerical firearms market. Note the stock,receiver,lower handguard, and front trunion are not the same as a RPK. But the one feature that screams it is not a RPK is the bipod is attached in front of the front sight not behind it like a RPK. |
