Do you have pics of your RPK kit?  I'd be interested in seeing them.

'R1150R':

Check the rear block in your M72 kit and let me know if the block is inletted for the top cover locking pin parts. If the block is inletted, it is most likely from an M70 kit, as would be the underfolder stock parts.
Thanks.

From what I have seen, all Yugo M70 and M72 top covers are notched for the locking pin, even if the original receiver was not set up to take the pin.
Thanks.

Sorry guys, but I have to ask.......Is there such a thing as a underfolder M-72 RPK?????? I thought they were all fixed stock and is the underfolder correct or a throw togeather from the yugo's because the stocks were beat up to bad so they replaced them with left over underfolder stocks??????? I'm trying to find the underfolder in a pic footage. Anyone?????

Thanks all

M-72B1 = fixed stock
M-72AB1 = folding stock
Centerfire lists both versions in their ads as being M-72B1. Stands to reason why they come with M-70 folders.
