Imported by Clayco Sports, Clay CENTER, KS. The Clayco Sports AKS, often referred to simply as the “Clayco”, was the first Chinese manufactured AKS to be imported to the United States, and only the second AK to be imported behind the Egyptian Steyr Maadi, imported about a year prior.

Clayco rifles had sheet metal steel receivers that followed the Chinese standard 1.5mm thick sheet metal vs the 1.0mm found on most AKM’s, as well as the “Chinese” rivet pattern for the front trunnion.

These are great quality rifles that are for those discernible AK collectors.

This rifle was imported before the ’89 Bush Ban.
