Value Factor 2: MAK-90 Variant, Model, or Caliber
Let’s start with a common misconception: that the NHM 90 or Norinco Hunter Model 90 is a MAK 90 model. It’s actually a different gun.
Actual MAK-90 variants are differentiated by configuration. These come in details like milled vs. stamped receivers, straight vs. slant stock cuts, and rare furniture options.
Year also counts. Pre-ban MAK-90 value is usually higher by about 20% to 50%, in particular… but not everyone is willing to pay that.
MAK-90 Sporter Value
The average used Norinco MAK-90 Sporter is worth $450 to $1250. The Norinco Mak-90 Sporter value can reach $2700 for custom builds.
The Norinco MAK-90, also known as Norinco MAK-90 Sporter, is a civilian-legal AK-pattern rifle imported from China in the 1990s. It features a stamped or milled receiver, a thumbhole stock, and standard AK iron sights.
MAK-90 Sporter with Pistol Grip Value
The average used Norinco MAK-90 Sporter Pistol Grip is worth $500 to $1280.
This gives you the exact same MAK-90 look, just with a pistol grip and accompanying stock. This variant typically sells for more than the thumbhole one due to ergonomic factors.
MAK-90 Sporter with Thumbhole Stock Value
The average used Norinco MAK-90 Sporter Thumbhole Stock is worth $400 to $1120.
The exact same look just with a Thumbhole stock. This is probably the most common configuration of the gun.
Norinco NHM-90 Value
The average used Norinco NHM-90 is worth $500 to $1050.
The Norinco NHM-90 came before the MAK-90 and is often confused for it. The rifle has a longer barrel for better accuracy and muzzle velocity. It often has a welded muzzle cap and a "purple" bolt carrier and bolt. Some people prefer MAK-90's over NHM-90's because of the furniture.

Optics
An optic from a well-known brand in good quality can help with your MAK 90’s value, but this is highly variable.
Value: Around 30% to 50% of the accessory’s original value.
Extra Magazines
