Hey all. I know I have been mia for a few years, but just wanted to pop in and say hello, and wanted to ask a general ak question. (will be interesting to see how many "old timers" are still around)
Just bought a Norinco nhm90. Extremely clean, pristine condition. Here's the question, will removing the "factory" stock, handgrips,ect hurt the collector value of the gun too much? I was told Norinco's are considered by some to be the cream of the crop, and some have suggested I leave it original to retain the most value.
Problem is, I hate the thumbhole stock. Hard for me to shoot. To take it off, I must replace it, (and 4 other parts) made in the USA in order for the weapon to be 922r compliant from what I understand. Is this correct, or does this only apply to assembly as the laws seem to state?
Anyway, thanks in advance.
