That might not be good. I've had 'hardness' issues with Romanian bolt carriers in the past. In the event I get ready to do this, I'll contact you with a request for pricing based on a Polish kit. In the meantime, I'm trying to talk a buddy out of what he claims to be a Russian kit. Stay tuned. |

I'll concur with this up to the point that you're going for looks. The Egyptian head is not important because you can't see that on the film. The correct "color" for the laminated wood is, of course, important. Other than that, a good, properly hardened set of parts from the kit is paramount. That is, I wouldn't trust a Romanian kit, and I would be hesitant about anything but an early Egyptian. Polish? fine. Hungarian? fine. Russian? Priceless. |

But,...in a clone, LOOKS are all we have to look at! Take them "Ladies" that you are the KING of presenting so often, and from the bottom of my genitals I DO THANK YOU for YOUR QUALITY "SOFT SHOTS", ...LOOKS are ALL we have to look at. Instead of PHAROAH's Pschent Crown (a Deshret "red crown"/Hedjet "white crown" combination),..hows 'bout a "Cleopatra Head"? Yeah,..CLEOPATRA HEAD!

I would LOVE to see a member build one of these with a NDS "premo" russian style receiver, have Cyrillic selector marking engraved and maybe get some beautiful birch russian AKM wood to finish it off.

Ive just accidentaly got the wood color of the red dawn AK IMO. I was looking for the Russian red color, but not all of the stain soaked in, and there is BLO already in the stock. Those two things gave me that color.

Wow. I just found this thread.
YOu're right. That's a maadi in the film. Oddly enough I got a romanian last year that looks exactly like that. |
