What does BWK stand for on an AK 47 223 caliber gun?

Question by : What does BWK stand for on an AK 47 gun modified to a 223 cal.?
I have an AK-47 modified to 223. It is stamped BWK 92. My question is what does the BWK stand for?

Answer by METROPOLIS1
Modified to .223?……..

This is highly unlikely….. The rifle was most likely manufactured this way…..

Is this a Polytech/ Norinco?….. Maybe “China Sports”…… This sounds like an AKS type 56….. Does it have an “84S in a triangle stamped on the receiver?….

I think the BW means B-West…. They were an importer of these rifles before the Clinton importation ban of these rifles came into effect……
