I have owned three of them, and share some of my photos in this web page. The MAK-90 is a Chinese factory built AK model exported to the USA from China from 1990 through 1994 by two Chinese export companies:.
Following the import ban in 1989, the Chinese developed an AK which met the 'sporting purposes' clause. (The earlier AKs were banned because of their 'evil' features: pistol grips, folding stocks, threaded muzzles and bayonets.) The new model was basically an AK with a wood thumb-hole stock and no bayonet lug (although you do sometimes see MAK-90 receivers with under-folder holes drilled and filled). Around a million MAK-90s were exported to the USA in the early 90s. According to 'JA,' of AK47.net, more MAK-90 rifles were imported from China than any other model of semi automatic AK type rifle from any other country.
MAK-90s were made to shoot 7.62x39 or.223 caliber ammunition. Dvigatelj 2sd instrukciya. A very few were made to shoot 5.45 x 39 ammo. The retail price for a new MAK-90s was often less than $200. They often were sold with three 5-round magazines, an oil bottle, a cleaning kit and a sling.
A magazine ad from the early 1990s (I would venture to opine that the most common model NOW (2009) for sale in the USA is the, modified for 30-round magazines. The is based on a, but is modified to be and distributed in the USA by.) On April 6,1998 a ruling by the Treasury Secretary banned the import of semi-automatic rifles that use a magazine holding more then ten rounds. Century International Arms takes the WASR-10 imports from Romania, reams out the magazine hole to accomodate a double-stack 30 round standard magazine, and then replaces enough parts in the WASR-10 to make it 922r compliant.
(In contrast to the MAK-90, you may note that the WASR-10 has stocks of cheap plywood, a ribbed receiver cover, open-top sights, no 'dimple' in the receiver, and a Soviet-style scope-mount welded on the left side of the receiver.) Standard WASR-10 As Modified and Sold by Century International Arms In 1990 the Chinese AK factories screwed a nut on the muzzle to cover the threads, and some were tack welded on. The bayonet lug was ground down to eliminate the possibility of the MAK-90 having an 'evil' bayonet. According to 'J.A.,' '.The standard thread size for AK-47 type rifles is 14x1mmLH. This means the diameter of the threads is 14mm and the pitch is 1mm. The LH means that the threads are left hand and to screw a muzzle brake onto the barrel you will have to turn it to the left/counter clockwise.' I think a lot of MAK-90 owners think they have a threaded muzzle when they really don't.
If your entire barrel on your MAK-90 seems to be threaded, then it is NOT. These are just machine tool marks. This MAK-90 muzzle is NOT threaded. What appears to be threads are just machine tool marks. The model name was ground off (or lined through) and the new model name MAK-90 was stamped. Some had 90 added to the serial number that denoted the year of import (1990). They were named 'Sporter,' and sold with a five-round magazine, to make them seem more like hunting rifles.
Original model name ground off, and re-stamped MAK-90 Sporter 'JA' posted the following remarks on the Gunsnet Forum in 1999-2000. (I cleaned up the grammar a little bit, for clarity): All Chinese AK rifles have barrels that are larger in diameter than European AK's. I took some measurements: All measurements were taken with calipers and the barrels were measured 1/2 way between the front sight and gas block. The stamped receiver MAK-90 in 7.62 and.223 have barrels that are.608' in diameter. The milled receiver MAK-90 has a.615' diameter barrel. The milled receiver MAK-91 has a.684' diameter barrel and the NHM-91 has a.668 diameter barrel. The Maddi post bans have.580' diameter barrels and Romanian's are.584'.
