Pre-NORINCO AK-47s “56s” 7.62x39mm Machine Gun.

Pre-NORINCO AK-47s “56s” 7.62x39mm MG.

Chinese full stock AK-47 in 7.62×39.  This is a pre Norinco import probably from the late 70’s or early 80’s. It has the characteristics of a Norinco but is not marked as such.  It does have a factory mark of 56s for the model though which makes it a Chinese Military gun made for the American Market.  The conversion was done by Billistics which was one of the premier AK gunsmiths back in the day. It is getting harder and harder to find full stock transferable AK’s on the market. They almost always get chopped up for KRINK conversions.  These are super comfortable to shoot.
