Buttstock has been shortened and buttplate modified to fit. Barrel has been shortened (it is now 23", not 25" as per the specification for the FSK15), and bayonet mounting bar has been removed from the barrel. Charging handle has been modified so that it won't separate from the return spring, "81.7" has been stamped into the left side of the forend above the magazine box; a screw was added to the gas cylinder to prevent rotation, and a retaining screw was added to the receiver end cap. Receiver, bolt, and operating handle have matching numbers. Includes a good condition leather sling. Condition overall is very good with the metal retaining approx. 90% of its reblued finish. Wood has had varnish applied, now darkened, showing scratches and handling marks to the forend and handguard. Action operates smoothly, bright bore is excellent. No visible import marks.
