The RK 62 is considered a high quality AK variant. The biggest single improvement, apart from the overall receiver and barrel quality, are the iron sights. While most AKs have the rear sight mounted on top of the gas piston housing on top of the receiver. In the RK 62 the rear sight is mounted on the rear of the receiver cover with tritium illuminated night-sights. The older model has a wooden buttstock instead of the more common metal tubular one.
