That rear sight is a Tech peep sight you can get online. It’s an aftermarket sight and topcover set they added to the rifle who ever was the previous owner of the rifle.
Those Romanian AKMs are usually pretty good. A pity this one got neglected. I got the Romanian SAR-1. It's got some trigger slap but it's nothing a gloved hand can't mitigate and it's lots of fun to shoot. It takes the 30 rd mags and chews up the cheap steel cased ammo like it's supposed to. I got it for $300 about 15 or so years ago. Similar quality AKs are going for about $800 these days which is ridiculous. A basic AK shouldn't cost as much as a mid level AR (I got my Sig M400 Tread for $800) but I guess that's where market demand is for this platform. I did put Magpul furniture on it a couple years ago. It's supposed to be a bit more heat resistant but after a half dozen or so 30 rd mags, it still gets hot like anything else. How has the furniture you put on this one perform in the long run?
@@PromNightDumpsterBaby420 After pulling the trigger, when the trigger resets, it comes back with enough force to slap you trigger finger. It can be bad enough that it makes the rifle uncomfortable to shoot. Edit: I have replaced the trigger with a brand called ALG. Very smooth trigger and affordable.

A little oil it would have shot fine
Great job!! It look nice. I would like to see that rear sight at close!! A video on how it works could be possible?
Comrade Zarkovsky? Is that you?

How was the bore?
Bores are chrome lined so should be better than the rest of the gun
Ive never seen an AK with that kinda sight on a recoil spring.
