Chinese NHM91 Review

NHM-91 Made in China by Norinco Cal 7.62x39 CSI ONT CA

NHM-91 were made with a rivet where the rear tang of the magazine hits the receiver. Most owners removed this so that standard AK47 magazines would work without modification.

Like all Chinese AK47s these are sturdy, well made and overbuilt. So with the long barrel and weight these are often called RPKs

This NHM91 has had it's front site post 'modified' with a grinding wheel.. in order to attach this cheap scope on a receiver cover mount

It might look appealing to someone, but this has really lowered the value of this fairly rare AK47 which has not been imported in many years. Replacement parts may be available, but this is a serious gunsmithing job to replace the parts damaged to install this optical scope. The NHM91 did not have the soviet optics mounting plate on the left side of the receiver so the owner must have decided this wobbly option was 'good enough' and took the grinder to the rear sight block. The rifle is shootable in this condition, but worth much less to a collector. Take another look at the grinders effects on the rear sight block not to mention the destroyed rear sight.. why not just remove it?? I guess this guy was in a hurry or just cared that little for his rifle

20" heavy barrel with a muzzle nut tack welded in place

Stocks on the NHM-91 are made by Bishop or Boyd and are made of birch wood or hackberry

Handguards on the NHM91 are a unique shape with no cut outs for heat loss

The butt of the NHM91 stock looks more like a hunting rifle or shotgun than an AK47
