Does it contain a packet of white powder?Trev
Hi all
Any thoughts on a fair price for a Hakim please? It’s shooting nicely at about 8ftlbs and cosmetically is in pretty good nick considering. Marking are nice and clear. According to Holts it was used to train fighters in the Lebanon in the 80s, well, you can believe that or not I guess 😀
The faux charger bridge has been removed, but neatly, and the rear sight blade is missing (hence the diopter you can see in the picture). Otherwise all is as it should be and the automatic loading tap works nicely
You don’t see many of these so I’m a bit stuck on value
Morally flawed

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,
John
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.
l sold mine for £360 in 2016 if that helps.
