Construction & Materials
The RAK47-C-CA features a fully heat-treated, mil-spec stamped receiver paired with a forged trunnion, bolt, and carrier—the critical components that define an AK's longevity. The 16.25" barrel is constructed from 4150 nitride steel with a 14×1 left-hand thread, providing durability and accuracy potential.
Laminate wood furniture—buttstock, handguards, and compliant pistol grip—delivers a classic aesthetic while meeting California regulations. The black oxide finish protects the metal surfaces from corrosion.
