Hunter -Type III
Bubba's Review:
7.62x39mm Milled Receivers, "Post Ban rifle"
I have seen these, very strong, but I've never shot one
Manufacturer Description:
The Hunter rifle has a milled receiver that is marked with a 386 in a oval. This is the same factory stamp as the Poly Tech rifles and denotes that they were made in factory #386 located in Shenzhen,China. The barrel is 20" long and doesn't have threads on the end for a muzzle brake. This rifle is while not a exact copy of the Valmet Hunter M-88 is copied from it.

For ease of identification I have classed the rifle into 3 types based on the type of rear sight it has.

Type I = peep sight mounted on the receiver cover.
Type II = two leaf folding notch sight mounted on the rear sight block.
Type III = standard type AK rear sight.
There were 3 holes on the left side of the receiver above the mag well for the detachable scope mount. Not all rifles were drilled and tapped for a scope mount.

Type III

The third type rifle had a standard sliding rear sight as a AK-47 rifle. The mag release was the same lever type as the standard AK-47 rifle. The trigger was in a position farther back on the receiver but looked like the standard AK rifle trigger. It was modified on the inside to be longer so it would work with the hammer and disconector that are in the position as the other types of Hunter rifles and standard AK rifles.

There are transition Hunter rifles as I have seen pictures of type II rifle with type III mag release. I have recently received some pics of a Type I rifle rifle marked "HUNTER 90" with the same type front sight mounted on the gas block just like the Valmet Hunter M-88 rifle.
