1The North Korean Kalashnikov

North Korea built the milled AK-47 as the Type 58 and the stamped AKM as the Type 68, which has a distinctive perforated folding stock strut. North Korean rifles are marked with a star in a circle.

Later versions include the Type 88 in 5.45×39. North Korean rifles were never imported to the United States, so the items collectors see here are bayonets and accessories.
