| Both of my MD-63's have ser#'s and dates (one 1980 and one 1989) and neither one have the triangle with arrow stamp on them.Why is that?Maybe not romy as advertised (APEX)? |

With the Romanian rifles, sometimes the "arrow in the triangle" arsenal stamp is on the trunnion (particularly with older rifles); sometimes there's simply a "empty triangle" stamp; other times it's just a set of serial numbers. Seems like the later variants were devoid of the "triangle with the arrow" stamp and done much like the SAR-type commercial rifles.
Yours are probably very much Romanian. APEX kind of has the countries down fairly well. If you could post a photo (block out a few of your serial numbers, etc.), it would certainly help. |
Thanks Ray for the info.Both rifles are in route as we speak to pats (restoreit) to be shortened down to 9.5 inches (Big Evil Grin ) Can't take a pic(no camera),scrimping and saving to finish my 3 projects (you can't blame me,can you? ) 
Just dug out my "G" and glanced at the trunnion.It has a triangle (no arrow) and 1984S and then the ser#.Darn "G" looks brand new
