Crutch. The bulk of '71 and '72 KMS production was shipped to Egypt in preparation for the '73 Yom Kippur War. All these rifles had crutch sidefolders.
What is correct?
I have 72 build with a east german sidefolder. Is a crutch folder correct, or sidefolder correct? Or are both correct?

Sure would like to see a pic when you "get er done"! :goof:
