Ok guys, I have to come clean, I bought one of the side folders. I have wanted an E. German AK for some time now and could not resist. I got it today and I want to tell you it is really nice!!! The price was in decent and it definitely is not a Rommy. I just sold a Rommy side folder and have a side folder stock I purchased from Tapco. The German is more complicated. It has a funky lever that actuates a pin. It looks some what like a Rommy from a distance but up close you can see the mechanism is different. I am really excited about it. I still has the receiver attached to the front and trigger guard so the fine demilling so to speak is up to me, a good thing. I really think this is a neat find. I am really happy with it. By the way, the parts list in the plastic bag looks very much like the kind that comes from Centerfire Systems, even the plastic bag stapled at the top. That leads me to believe it comes from the same importer. My suggestion, get one while your can. Jack
