Item Description: Reposting as a trade because I realized I’m not really trying to sell: Up for trade I have my beloved Hakim, in my opinion the best of the old school battle rifles and a fantastic hog and deer gun. Looking for something interesting, weird or cool. Willing to throw in a box of 200gr fmj and a nice old Winchester fleece lined burlap soft case for the right trade. Shoot me an offer, the worst I can say is no!
Description and info: The Hakim is a semi automatic, direct impingement, 10 shot 8mm battle rifle. It is based of the AG M/42 Ljungman, but in 8mm with an adjustable gas block. These were built on Swedish tooling in Egypt from the 50’s through 60’s and are fairly rare, with overall production topping out around 70,000. This specific rifle was part of the CAI imports, as far as I can tell it was in the country pre-AWB. The serial dates the rifle to 1969 and it was never used outside of Egypt. The rifle is designed to be fed from stripper clips, similar to an sks, however the magazines are easily removable and you can mag swap the magazine if that’s your preferred reloading technique.
Condition: the bore is bright and shiny, the rifling is crisp, and the gas system was in good shape when I last tore it down. I have only shot modern ammo through it, and it does not appear to have been shot much before me. It does not show any of the typical signs of corrosive ammo use. The metal is in good shape, some finish wear and handling marks. The rack number is still discernible on the stock, painted in yellowish- beige. The gas block adjusts easily and it clicks to position readily. All matching serials.
This rifle comes with 3 10 rd. magazines: 1 original factory and 2 repros. The factory mags are going for 2-300 and the repros are ~1-150. You can also modify an mg-13 mag fairly easily if you want 25rds at a time.
Bottom line: I love this rifle, and I’m in no hurry to get rid of it, but I’d like to see what’s out there and let someone else enjoy this great gun! College student, so weekends are going to be the best time for meeting unless you’re within 100 miles of Statesboro
Feel free to ask for more pictures, details, or information, even if it’s just to expand your knowledge. Not many people are aware of these beauties and I’m always willing to help educate.
Naturally, Ga DL is a must and ccw would be nice to have but not necessary. Masks: I don’t personally care (got both shots) but I’ll defer to your preference as long as you don’t make it political.
I live in Statesboro but my folks live just north of Atlanta and I’m not opposed to using this trade as an excuse to go see them. Thanks for reading and God Bless!
