NORINCO MAK 90 SPORTER AK47 7.62X39MM 10RD

The Norinco MAK-90 was China's export AK-pattern rifle, imported into the US before the 1994 assault weapons ban made further importation impossible. The distinctive wood thumbhole stock was a compliance feature that's now become a collector identifier — you can spot a MAK-90 across the room. Chambered in 7.62x39mm with the same Kalashnikov gas-operated action used by militaries worldwide, it's reliable, accurate enough for any practical use, and genuinely fun to shoot. Pre-ban MAK-90s are increasingly sought-after as importation closed over 30 years ago.
