Ummm, what does that mean? Never heard of a "Tophat AK"...

The Russian machines ran by Russian machinists in Egypt had this mark on the front trunnion.

Any other Maadi is crap.

Egyptian AKM made on Soviet tooling, with Soviet's help. Has Steyer-made CHF CL barrels, some of the best on AKs. Was imported in limited numbers.
OK, so a few days ago I was in a pawn shop and they had an AKM - it was a MAADI - and I looked it over. They wanted $800 or so for it, and I thought it felt like a piece of shit. It was tinny, felt light and rattled, paint looked like crap (it was mostly there, but just like a toy or something cheap). The stock didn't fit well, I was generally unimpressed.
And THIS is a 'good' AKM???
