Yugo m70 vs Mak 90?

[Wolfhunter]

My mk18 I use at work and my arsenal... Rattle canned up!! Can't wait to get all up in this yugo

Lol

The arsenal was just for fun. It hasn't gotten much use. The paint is surprisingly easy. just go get some spray paint that is the same colors as your backyard. Then spray it all over your rifle. It will look fine.

Now that mk18 I've beat the brakes off of. I treat that thing like a dirty corner girl.... Except I clean it better...

The mak 90 is made from cheaper chinese steel though. Any knife guy can tell you stay away from chinese steel. That's prolly why they made it thicker. I just need a tank of a gun

OPAP, you want a tank, buy the OPAP, it's THE TANK of the AK's. Pretty sure it doesn't have the US made barrel like the abpt2 (can't remember name).

MURICA barrels!

Yeah, all the PAP's have e.european made barrels and receivers. The Centruy M70ABM, AB2 & AB2t as well as the ATI M70 are all us barrels and receivers which isnt a bad thing.

I think the opap has the heavy CHF barrel though. It's beefy.

I believe the m70ab2 and opap are equally beefy. Gordon Freeman ?

Both are equal. The US made barrels in the AB2 are just as good as OPAP. OPAP does have hammer forged barrel, but it's also softer metal. The US are made by Green Mountain, I believe. Very good, but not chrome lined. Only difference is OPAP is factory built. Given that, I rather have an OPAP for same price, but since ththe M70AB are generally less, they're fine. Also, the AB2 is equipped with bayonet (and grenade launcher sight), since it's not an import. All imports are prohibited from being sold here with a bayonet. Hence why NPAP/OPAP don't have them.

I don't think my 70ab2 has a bayonet mount

Good info! I know the GM barrels are supposed to be great. I'd like to have all those rifles mentioned.
