3/2/21 - This is a like-new example of a Finnish Valmet M76 Assault Rifle, chambered in 5.56mm or .223. Made between 1976-86. The Valmet M62/76 series of rifles are updates of the AK-47 design. Beginning with a licensed version of the AK-47 receiver, Valmet set about upgrading the design at every point. Tolerances are much tighter than the Soviet bloc AKs while still being generous enough to assure outstanding reliability in all climates. The gas piston included small “fingers” near the piston to ensure smoother functioning inside the gas tube, which helped to increase the inherent accuracy of the rifle. Another move toward increased accuracy was the upgraded sights. They also come with a folding stock. This one is all matching and in like-new condition except for very light surface scuffs on the receiver. Some light surface scratches and handling marks on the stock as well. It comes with one 30-rd magazine. The bore is mint.
