I trained with several Egyptian soldiers and they were some of the best people I've known! I just hope that they are still ok after everything that's happened there since then!

Daddy Keemstar because it's not about rifles, it's about military readiness. this rifle dates back way before the six days war. today this is just a pure ancient architecture that can deal some pretty dangerous damage if it is used right. we lost to Israel in 1967 because most of our military firepower was placed on yemen. if you're going to turn this into a political debate like a 10 year child on who lost to whom then drag your ass out of here, no one wants that bullshit over here.

I’ve had my Hakim for about 4 years and I absolutely love it! I’ve fired hundreds of rounds through it. It’s very accurate. I can’t imagine how much more accurate it could be if I loaded my own ammo. I just use cheap surplus 8mm. I’ll never get rid of it. Plus it’s a conversation piece at the range. Most people have no idea what it is or they confuse it with being an SVT40.

Agreed, them (and other youtubers) have increased the awarness for some of these cool old guns. Thegoldencaulk, I would argue that politics still have an effect on the surplus market. When it was really crazy people (at least in my area) were buying up anything semi auto with a detachable mag and pistols 9mm and higher (even mosins vanished). Before everything went nuts I could still find most popular surplus guns easily and for a decent price. Now I rarely see anything, and when I do it's overpriced because like you said, there aren't any more being made. The commercial market was deff hit harder, but they are always making more of those.

The adjustable direct gas impingement is an Egyptian design on this rifle. When Egypt bought the tooling and design of the Swedish 6.5x55 from Sweden, it wanted to make good use of the huge stockpiles of 8mm ammunition it had since the end of WWll. The Swedes had a fixed gas system which didn't allow adjustments. Aside from the gas system, the rest of the adjustments made in Egypt are obvious; a beefier barrel, and a fixed, integral muzzle break were added to tame the recoil of the 8mm. Incidentally, the muzzle break is not a flash suppressor. It was strictly added to mitigate recoil. Great, very informative video ! Well done !!

Back around 1970 or so, a friend of mine purchased a Hakim at a now defunct (chain) Five and Dime, of all places, in North Carolina for $75.00. To this day he owns only two center fire rifles, the Hakim and a WWII German semiauto rifle that his now deceased Dad brought home in 1946 and willed to my friend. Bill switches off hunting with the two rifles depending on how he feels when he wakes up on "Hunting Day" and has managed to fill his freezer with venison and pork/bacon every year with one or the other of the two rifles.

At a local range 4-5 years ago, most people were packing up for the day when an old timer drove up and pulled a Hakim out of his truck. Having never seen one before I just had to ask what it was. I waited until he fired about 20 rounds and was taking a short break. After about 5 minutes of talking to him he volunteered to let me shoot it. Definitely sweet shooting rifles. I've been looking for one locally ever since with no luck.

I bought mine way back in 1988, with a coupon from my 1st NRA membership packet for only $189.00 U.S.D. plus shipping to a friend with a C&R lic. I vowed to never sell it...still have it..and seeing this vid for the first time makes me want to get her out and warm her up. SHes' been a safe queen for several years now. Used to hunt deer with it using 186 gr. Winchester soft points...knocks 'em flat. Hits as hard or harder than a 30.06! I concur that the Hakim 8mm is heavy to carry all day but is a very accurate and unique rifle. It don't really need a scope either...shoots great with the irons, as seen here in this vid. I bought 3 crates of Bosnian surplus to feed her back in 2005 when it was still plentiful and relatively cheap. Read it and weep guys! LOL! :-)

YES, been waiting for you to do this gun for a while now. There is very little KZbin content on the Hakim, and most of it is pretty poor quality shooting vids with no detail/history. There is a good disassembly video or two, though. I saved one of these from a Pawn shop. Someone cut off the end of the muzzle brake and tried to drill and tap the HANDGUARD for a scope. Yeah, the handguard.... I fixed the handguard and replaced a couple parts. The gas valve was stuck wide open. Couldn't get it to move. Had to soak the gas tube in kroil with the gun upside-down for a long time, then get a steel gas key to finally get it to turn. Someone had used a vice grip to adjust it, the triangle was all gnarfed up. The spring that indexes the gas valve was missing too. The pillar sleeves were missing too, so made them out of some stainless tubing. Got all the issues straightened out, so it's good now. Except the muzzle brake, nothing I can do about that. He cut it off right in front of the main body so I still have most of it, but the part where it narrows back down at the tip is gone. The rifle is so fun to shoot. I even shoot lead cast reloads in mine! Beats the hell out of the brass though, even with some rubber fuel line tubing on the deflector. Kind of a pain to clean after shooting corrosive, since you really need to take the gas valve out and clean in there. The tube is stainless so not much worry there, but the gas valve will rust and seize up. I put some anti-seize on it. The front sight on these is quite fat and not great for long distance shooting. It's really easy to swap out, so I would suggest you buy a replacement and file it down to a more narrow post. Then paint it white or something. That might help a good bit for the longer shots, and you can always return it to 100% original condition. I don't think a peep sight on the rear safety mechanism would be stable enough. That base moves around a little bit, at least on mine. You can buy spares though, so why not get one and have someone weld a peep sight on it for you? It's not Bubba when you can reverse it back to all-original condition!

Back in the mid 90s a buddy of mine had a Hakim that he modified a bit. First he cut off the front wood jacket to expose the beautiful blued barrel underneath. Then he mounted a scope mounting plate on the left side of the receiver to which he attached a fairly nice 6-24x50 scope. (The scope was over the top of the gun, not the side, just the mounting plate). Then I told him about an article I had read in Gun world mag or Guns n ammo mag about how to modify an MG15 mag by using a file to fit the 30rd clip into the Hakim. When he was finished, he had an AWESOME looking assault/sniper weapon with a 30rd detachable 8mm clip. I believe the mags can still be had from Sarco

About 6 months ago I was getting a battery for my new weapon light and decided to take the light into Lowe’s with me to make sure I got the right battery. I keep a quick access mini safe in my vehicle because of my state laws, so I went to retrieve my pistol to detach the quick release light.. well I had the slide locked back and in manipulating the pistol without looking because I didn’t want to look suspicious, I managed to hit the slide release. The slide rode forward on a 20lb spring and pinched the tip of my thumb and got stuck. It was just dangling from my finger like you talked about in the video at that was just a little pistol, I can’t imagine doing that with that huge chunky bolt. My skin is crawling thinking about it!

Pretty nice accuracy for a gun that was created to provide sustained cover fire for machine gun teams. The gun was designed to be shot at a sustained rate of fire (these guys made it look like slow fire) for over 1000 rounds before the need to cool off (hoping to have the machine gun active by then). I own one and they are very temperamental with certain types of ammo but once you get the gas block adjusted it works like a charm but it would be a bitch to have to do it during battle and have to manually extract each cartridge from the chamber as the rims are wide on this ammo and can get lodge needing a screwdriver or tool to pry it out.

Companies waste SO much time, money and resources trying to fill position, just from having to filter thru all the worthless applicants! Then there are those that got coached on filling out applications and resumes and how to interview well and what to say, etc. only to be hired and find out that they have absolutely NO work ethic or understand something as simple as SENIORITY and working your way up!

What you called a "bulls eye hold" is called a six o'clock hold in competition where a spotter reports to the shooter the location of his hits or misses using a clock dial for reference. I would like to suggest you try this method. i.e; 7 o'clock, just outside, or 7 o'clock 2 inches inside, etc...This gives a more exact reference to the shooter. If it isn't exactly dead center, call it exactly as it is, 3 inches left of center...or for distant targets where you aren't sure, you may say; 2 to 3 inches left of center. With just a bit of practice, you may find this tried and true system to serve your purpose. For years it was the system used in handgun and rifle metallic sihouette competitions. Always, with no exceptions...using a clock dial for reference.

Nice exotics! Thanks for the review, guys! Though I feel sorry for an Egyptian soldier who was trying to reload this gun in a trench under enemy fire... That must have been a Houdini-trick O_o

I picked one up a few years ago and absolutely loved it, I guess I got some bad surplus ammo because a casing got lodged in the chamber after being fired. I've tried a cleaning rod a torch and a hammer but never had any success removing it.

Is that yugo ammo corrosive? Also, does your shell deflector mangle the brass? I try reload for mine, but the deflector just destroys the brass.

Wrap some electrical tape on the deflector. Solved the problem for me and it looks original too.

Yes the yugo ammo is berdan primed and corrosive. I bought some of 1999 MFG date and it's still corrosive but damn good ammo tho, very consistent. I think it's the best surplus 8mm I've tried.

do what I did, get a piece of rubber tubing at the auto parts store, slit it lengthwise and slip it over the brass deflector, no more mangled brass,

Believe me this rifle is still in service in Egypt. There are men using this firearm patrolling the streets in Cairo and Luxor. They monitor tourist areas so tourists do not get hassled by the locals too badly.

I have seen lot's of these with barrels that look like SEWER PIPES. They were fired with tons of old surplus WWII Corrosive 8mm ammo back in the day. In the 80's and 90's when they were coming into the country for 250 to 300 bucks i wanted one. i looked at dozens of them and they all had dark gray pitted barrels. I never found one with a shiny barrel so never bought one.
