A period diopter would really help?
A period diopter would really help?
J.Milewski on here would be probably the best to ask .
I read somewhere that these are earlier not 1980's . Maybe they were used in Lebanon in the 80's but from what I remember of that s**t awful decade peeps out there were using real AK47's . Am sure these are Egyptian but made in Germany by one the better manufacturers .
Being a proper military trainer any dings , damage and repairs only authenticate it's originality
Looks sweet condition to me .
I don't believe these were fitted with a sight where your diopter is fitted. Mine doesn't have one. I reckon I paid around 300 for it, but it was a while ago.
Manufactured 1954.

Smell my cheese
I paid £400 for an honest one a couple of years ago. Using that, Holts' price and maybe a search on this site should give you a rough idea of value.
The missing rearsight blade and faux charger guide will reduce value slightly but this is still a nice rifle that ought to sell if priced appropriately.
Kind regards,

Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.
The sticky up thing isn’t a fake charger guide. It’s a fake spent case deflector.
Not a lot of people know that.
