'Rasheed' carbine.

[imarangemaster]

The Rasheed is a copy of the Swedish AG42 LJUNGMAN rifle, in 8mm Mauser caliber. Egypt started producing them as the "Hakim" rifle, also in 8mm Mauser (7.92x57). Later they adapted it to the 7.62x39 cartridge (naming it the "Rasheed") to use the same ammo as their foreign bought AK and SKS rifles. I think they even use SKS type stripper clips.

Your correct, but the Rasheed is smaller in size as the receiver/magazine were designed to use the Soviet 7,62x39mm cartridge

Took it to the range today, put about 400 rounds through it. Ran like a top, pretty darned accurate as well.
