Making A Sacrifice To The Egyptian God 'Hakim' (The Rifle That Eats More Than Just 8mm Mauser) 

I absolutely love my Hakim. They kick like an AR, sound like an artillery piece. :)

"Hakim" Bless you

I had one of these and was AMAZED at how low the recoil was. It was truly a smooth operating rifle. The gas adjustment tool is almost non existing.

Kick ass.

My Hakim is 43295 dated 1965, and my Rasheed is 8305, built in 1968. Thanks for all you do.

Nice presentation. I have a 1967 made example. Serial research on Gunboards puts production from 1956-1969 and number made at 52-55k.

Thumb is a cheeky joke, yes? And there it is & indeed I used a pencil! Hysterical!

Ag42 is amazing

I bought a Hakim, was not more than 7 hours before my thumb got caught in the action, lost the nail on my thumb, hurt like hell! Fun to shoot, it’s a cannon!

Life has kept me from watching for a time. This is a great video to jump back into your channel. Thanks!

Good job! 👍👊😎

Hakim, not Khakim btw. Only hebrew has no distinction between S, SH and k, KH (they just have Sh, KH). Arabic has a different letter for each sound.

LOL at the thumb, you almost got me!

Oh no you got Hakim thumb

I have one of the Hakim training rifles that shoot 22 pellets

I got in a internet argument this morning about Hakim’s. People were shitting on them and saying how trash they were, and how they were very poorly built and generally unsafe. I think the Hakim’s they came across were the Ethiopian RT imports worn out ones. I have seen two of these Ethiopian imported Hakims, they are trashed. The corrosive ammunition destroys their DI gas system and the chambers were ravaged by pitting. I doubt these rifles were cleaned much when out of Egyptian service, especially since you mentioned no cleaning tools were stored on the rifle. I think they are fine rifles, just when all you see is garbage destroyed ones I feel that leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

Swedish Bayonet fits it as well .. I had an Egyptian bayonet for mine, but needed money one month and had to sell it.

Acquired mine about a mo

MG13 magazines can be easily modified to fit the Hakim to give it a 25 round capacity. I love mine.. LOUD , LOUD, LOUD WHEN FIRING A HAKIM. they were advertised as in " dropped in sand only once" condition when first imported back in the 80s.. And mine was literally covered in sand around the gas tube. But it is in beautiful condition.

Was that a flannel flange referee?

That Hakim needs a rubber shell buffer. Sarco has them for $7. Before recently they were fairly hard to find. Only problem is properly attaching them. I believe they were originally riveted on but I temporarily attached mine with small machine screws and nuts until I figure out which rivets to get.

I’m too afraid for my digits to purchase one of these.

Upgrayeddd!!!

Lol, imagine being the guy showing up handing out AK's and food. Bet that dude didn't mind his job for awhile!

Hakim means Wiseman , not judge .anyway thanks for the nice video, and at the beginning of your video when I saw your thumb I really thought you hurt urself,

I made my own gas tool by melting soldier into the socket of a nut driver, and with the rifle upside down cast the impression into the nutdriver and let cool. After you have a perfectly shaped tool for adjustments. I found my rifle yo be severely over gassed even in the lowest setting. I had to replace extractor paw due damage and replaced the recoil spring to be safe. Still the gun would violently eject and cause damage to the rim of the ammo. I only hand load for this rifle now and have had the greatest of luck using light 150gr bullets using the lowest powder charge specified in my load data. With that said it has became one of my favorite rifles to soot ever. When everything is gassed correctly and the stock is bedded good these rifles will not disappoint. Experience with loading is a must for old rifles like these, to the unassuming person using hot ammo could have a case head separation and blow the magazine and gun apart likely have done before with these rifles. I would only recommend these rifles to experienced shooters only.

Gas port acts like a cookie cutter.. and it will bite the hell out of you.

My Hakim is a sweet shooter, accurate and soft recoiling. However it only seems to like FMJ rounds.

For anyone who cares: Port Saïd ( Egyptian Carl Gustaf/M-45) is pronounced « saheed » but a short ee like sahe’d.. Please look for me for more unsolicited comments all over the interweb..

After watching this video all the pencils in my house go into hiding when I pull out this rifle.

Fantastic! I have one that is in epic condition that I picked up on a trip to Texas. Very cool and I didn't know about the hollow buttstock so I'll check that out next time I have the Hakim out. Thanks again! Cheers!

Here I Thought “Hakim”Abdul Jabar Was a Basketball Player 😅Lol Just Kidding Misha 😅 Rather Unique Rifle 😊

I want one of these so bad 😭

Poor man's svt40?..lol ,8mm of Allah whoop Ass! Budget minded, I like rifles that shoot cheap surplus ammo. That's always been a big factor for me. 8mm, 54r ,x 39. I need a upper handguard :( Hickok45 alway used a soft hotdog for HIS demo's Well at his age...
