I'd like to share my latest with you, its an AMD 65 which is UK deactivated to old spec pre 1994 which means it has'nt been butchered completely and strips down nicely as shown in the photos, it also cocks and dry fires with some very satisfying clangs and clicks...........the story...!?.........for whats its worth......is that it was bought back from Bosnia by a returning member of the British element of the peace keeping forces and kept by that individual at their UK base untill it was pointed out to them that it would perhaps be a good idea to have it deactivated...!!
The Croation sticker on the top cover could be contemporary or added later...who knows...
Its my understanding that although there are some new spec deact examples of these in the UK there are perhaps only half a dozen old spec..........perhaps someone knows a bit more about whether this is the case.
Anyway since it was deactivated during or before 1994 and the Bosnian conflict was waged between 1992 and 1995 I think theres a good chance this thing saw some active service.
