Let me know if you have one.

Have one...built already:

Not for sale, but if you need any help with ideas how to rebuild one I'd be glad to help.

I already know a guy who can do a reweld. Is that baby all matching? Do you think if I offered enough, you'd let it go?

Tempted to sell, but I know it's absolute unobtainium, and I'd never get a shot at another one. I'm an AK writer, collector, and trainer, so it would kind of be blasphemy to sell the most iconic one I have, especially considering the PLO pedigree and patina.

The kit is an all-matching И-prefix, meaning a 1957 model. Rewelded by Matt Yeamans at MyGunsNorthwest.com, the rifle has it's original barrel, front and rear receiver sections. The front stub retains the original serial and Israeli capture proofmark. Mario at Piece of History Firearms did the selector engraving and detents. The rifle is shown above with an OTK59 mag pouch and OTK60 sling, along with the "correct" Izhevsk Arsenal proofmarked ribbed steel magazines and bayonet.
