Riley Defense RAK47 7.62x39mm 16.25" 30rd Laminate Rifle

The Riley Defense RAK47 Laminate dresses the classic AK-47 pattern in laminated wood: the buttstock and the upper and lower handguards are laminate, paired with a black oxide stamped receiver. It is chambered in 7.62x39mm, runs a 16.25" nitride barrel threaded M14x1 LH and feeds from 30rd magazines. Overall length is 35.25".

Laminate is built from thin layers of wood bonded under pressure, so it keeps the look and feel of wood while resisting the warping and swelling that solid stocks can suffer in wet weather. Under the furniture, the receiver is stamped steel and fully heat treated, and the trunnion, bolt and carrier are forged. Riley adds a bolt hold open safety lever and an extended magazine release to the standard controls, plus a machined side rail for a side mount optic. The front and rear sights are adjustable and the bayonet lug is retained. It comes with one magazine and a cleaning rod. For a buyer who wants the traditional wood AK look in a stock that tolerates rain and humidity, the laminate RAK47 is a good middle ground between teak and polymer, and it shoots exactly like the rest of the RAK47 line.
