This is the rare long barreled version of the Finnish AK series of rifles manufactured between 1976 and 1986. Based on the Russian RPK rifles and chambered in 7.62X51mm (.308 Win). The receiver is marked "VALMET/Made in Finland" on the left side over the model and caliber notation. With a folding bipod, smooth handguard, checkered pistol grip, and wooden buttstock.

ConditionVery fine overall with 98% original parkerized finish, mild handling evidence, and a few marks in the wood. Mechanically excellent.
