serial #BA354516, 7.62x39, 16 1/4” chrome-lined barrel with a bright excellent bore. This desirable carbine is famous for being the first semi-auto AK rifle imported into the U.S. from Bulgaria and features a milled receiver and very smooth action. Originally imported with a thumbhole stock during the ban years, this example has been converted to a standard configuration. The metal surfaces retain about 98-99% original black enamel over Parkerized finishes with a few scattered light handling marks and slight operational silvering. The left rear of the receiver is import-marked by D.I.G. and the bolt, bolt carrier and dust cover are serialized to the receiver. The original brown-stained hardwood handguards, added Bakelite pistolgrip and added Arsenal red/brown polymer buttstock rate excellent. As this model was imported with a thumbhole stock, the lower tang typical of a milled AK was not installed by the factory, so the current buttstock is held on by the upper tang alone. Other ban era features include an unthreaded muzzle, no bayonet lug or cleaning rod and one 5-round Chinese magazine is included along with an unmarked olive drab cotton AK sling. The action appears to function well mechanically. (23A10803-26) {MODERN} (1000/1500)

serial #P47-10097, 7.62x39mm, 16 1/4” chrome-lined barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this excellent condition KFS-imported carbine retain about 99% original blue and the bolt and carrier are bright. The checkered Asian hardwood pistolgrip and smooth buttstock and handguards rate very good plus with a few scattered light handling marks. All the numbered parts are serialized to the receiver, the original sights are intact and the action appears to function well mechanically. Included are three factory 30-round “flat back” magazines with chrome followers, cleaning kit, khaki canvas sling, green plastic oiler and the factory bayonet and scabbard. The bayonet retains all its hard-chrome plate and 99% original blue finish with a few fine speckles of light oxidation on the scabbard and a few light storage marks on the matching wood handle. Polytech Legends are prized amongst AK aficionados as they are of very high quality and limited number as they have long since been banned from importation.

serial #C04221, 7.62x39mm, 16 1/4” chrome-lined barrel with a bright excellent bore. This interesting carbine was once used for familiarization training and is clearly-marked “SZKOLNY,” Polish for school, on the left side of the receiver and comes with the original de-milled bolt which has part of its face cut away so that it cannot fire a cartridge. The metal surfaces retain about 85% original Parkerized and blue finishes with light wear to gray patina on the underfolding stock and on the high edges along with some scattered small spots of light oxidation and light handling marks. The chromed piston is bright and the bolt and bolt carrier are toning to gray with speckles of light oxidation staining. All numbered parts are serialized to the milled receiver which also shows the Radom factory code and 1961 on the left side. The checkered European hardwood pistolgrip and smooth handguards rate very good retaining most of their original red painted stripes denoting the gun as a training rifle along with a small chip in the right side of the lower handguard and overall handling marks from use. The cleaning rod, thread protector and original sights are intact and a Tapco G2 trigger group has been installed and the stock locks up securely in both positions. An original 30-round magazine also dated “61” and retaining most of its red-painted stripe is included along with an excellent-condition second generation Polish AK sling and the action appears to function well mechanically.

serial #C30732, 7.62x39mm, 21 1/4” barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is a very nicely built Yugoslavian M72B1 RPK clone using an all-matching parts kit and an American-made receiver with custom matching serial number. The metal surfaces retain a mix of about 98% original and maker blue with a few scattered light handling marks and spots of light oxidation and the bolt and carrier are bright. The left side of the rear sight base is marked “ZASTAVA-KRAGUJEVAC / YUGOSLAVIA” and as mentioned, all the correct components are matching. The black polymer pistolgrip rates excellent and the European hardwood buttstock and handguards rate surplus very good plus with a small chip in the forward right edge of the lower handguard along with some scattered light handing marks and remnants of cosmoline. The original sights are intact, the front has a flip-up night sight which has long since ceased to glow, the leaf of the windage adjustable RPK rear sight is bent, the bipod folds and deploys properly, the cleaning rod and cleaning rod retainer beneath the thread protector are intact and the rifle features a Tapco G2 trigger group.

serial #US16-21032, 9mm, 6 3/4” barrel with a bright excellent bore. This high-quality Swiss-made pistol remains in like-new condition and comes fully-outfitted with some very desirable accessories. The metal surfaces retain about 99% original black anodized finish and the black polymer lower receiver rates excellent. The pistol features a tri-lug barrel, reversable charging handle, fully ambidextrous controls, back up iron sights which fold flush with the upper full-length Picatinny rail, a shorter Picatinny rail on the underside of the forend, an internal hydraulic recoil mitigation system, and the very difficult to source and expensive factory skeletonized four-position extendable brace with Gear Head Works Tailhook Mod 1. Five B&T polymer 30-round magazines are included along with the original SB Tactical right-side folding brace with hydraulic buffer, a black nylon sling with HK-style snap hook for the two sling points on the rear of the upper receiver, a cleaning kit with Cordura zipper case, and a padded factory plastic hard case. Also included are two polymer Picatinny rail sections that can be attached to the left and right sides of the forend and mounted to the top of the receiver is an Aimpoint Acro PL-1 3 1/2 MOA red dot sight with B&T quick detach mount in excellent condition. B&T products exude quality and are extremely reliable; the smaller version of this firearm, the APC9K, was recently adopted by the U.S. Army as their first new submachinegun since the M3 “Grease Gun.” (23B10821-18) {MODERN} (2000/2500)
