The Norinco 84-S is a Chinese made .223 AK that has been
imported into the U.S. in pre and post-ban versions. There
are basically three versions of this rifle the Polytech 16
inch, the Norinco 16 inch and the Norinco 21 inch RPK
style. All are available in pre and post ban forms.
The 84-S uses special .223 mags and will even allow you to use
AK-74 mags in the gun. However you can only load about
20 rounds in the AK-74 clips before they start to malfunction.
All around the .223 AK is one of the best rifles we have seen,
however they do tend to tear up the brass so don't plan on
reloading. 84-S AKs also have a nasty tendency to
do double taps due to a weak spring in the bolt. This
can easily be fixed by replacing it with a higher quality
spring. Picture provided by AK-47.net Member: "308".
