The Holy Grail of 90s AK Imports:
Shepard Arms is proud to offer an incredibly rare opportunity for serious AK collectors and builders: a pristine, Like New In Box (LNIB) 1994 Norinco MAK-90 Sporter.
While many MAK-90s were heavily abused, poorly modified, or lost to time, this rifle is a true survivor. It remains in spectacular, untouched factory condition, complete with its original matching styrofoam box, manual, and every single factory accessory. Imported by Sportsarms (Miami, FL), it features the legendary 1.5mm stamped Chinese receiver—widely considered the thickest, most durable stamped AK receiver ever produced—and the famously smooth Norinco factory trigger.
The "Straight-Cut" Advantage:
This is the exact configuration AK purists hunt for. We have removed the factory thumbhole stock to confirm that this rifle features a highly desirable Straight-Cut Receiver.
Unlike slant-cut models that require expensive adapters or custom woodwork, this straight-cut receiver allows the next owner to effortlessly "de-ban" the rifle. It is perfectly machined to accept standard, traditional AK-47/Type 56 fixed wood stocks and pistol grips with zero modifications. Whether you plan to keep it in its original 1994 import configuration as a safe queen, or use it as the ultimate foundation for a premium Type 56 clone, this is the perfect base.
The Complete Collector's Package:
This auction isn't just for the rifle; it includes a treasure trove of original Chinese accessories that easily carry hundreds of dollars in standalone value:
The "Flat-Back" Mags: Includes TWO (2) original Chinese 30-round "flat-back" magazines. Known for their smooth profile and flawless reliability, these are the gold standard of AK magazines.
Import Magazines: Includes three (3) standard 5-round flush-fit magazines originally required for import.
Original Box: The original cardboard sleeve and styrofoam insert are intact and match the rifle.
Factory Accessories: Includes the original green canvas Chinese AK sling (with leather tabs), the OD green military oil/solvent canister, the metal buttstock cleaning tool kit capsule, and the original owner's manual.
