Valmet vs Galil differences?
OK, obvouse furniture and charging handle. Is a Valmet bolt and carrier in 7.62x39 the same as an AKM? Is the Norinco Hunter with the same shaped reciever the same also then? I looked for a place on the net comparing the Galil and Valmet but didn't find anything. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

The Valmet bolt parts are based on the milled receiver AK bolt parts. The Norinco bolt parts are based on the Chinese stamped receiver bolt parts. They are similar but small things like bolt lug thickness and and left side bolt lug angle often differ slightly. The 7.62x39 Galil looks like a South American production item at the Colombian Galil plant, "Indumi". The dimensions of the parts are very close on all of them though.
