North Korea has a domestic-production 5.45mm AK, designated the Type 88. Several versions exist (fixed, side-folding, and underfolding stocks) but the most unusual is the one with a unique top-folding stock made to accommodate a huge helical drum magazine. These are seen only with North Korea special forces and Kim’s personal bodyguards, and are clearly valued as propaganda pieces. I am not aware of any footage of one being fired, or of a physical example in Western hands – all we know about them comes from North Korean media. The actual capacity is just a guess, and some serious observers believe that they are not actually functional magazines and exist only for propaganda use.

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
