IMAGE CREDITS: From a private collector

This rifle is a Soviet military production AKMS in rare mint condition. You will find no finer example anywhere. It is a documented original that has had no modifications, and appears as it did in 1972 when it was made. Judging by it's features, it was probably assembled early to mid-year. We are very proud to have the permission of the owner to share this amazing images with you here. I wish to thank him for this honor. --Tantal
