This "From The Vault" video from Brownells Gun Techs Keith and Caleb features an in-depth look at the Egyptian Hakim service rifle, hosted at Rock Island Auction Company. The Hakim, which originated as the Swedish AG-42, was manufactured in Egypt in the 1950s and chambered in 8mm Mauser. It served as Egypt's main battle rifle before being replaced by the AK-47. The video highlights its direct-impingement gas system with an added gas flow adjuster for varying ammunition. Keith demonstrates a field strip, explaining the rifle's robust operating system and comparing its potential for "ouchy" to the Garand Thumb. Despite a massive steel receiver and good recoil taming muzzle device, accuracy can be affected by stock bedding issues, and the rifle is noted as being very loud.

It highlights key modifications made by Egypt, including changes to grasping grooves, a removable muzzle brake, an adjustable gas system, and the absence of a cleaning rod. The description debunks the common assertion of the Hakim's widespread use in the 1956 Suez Crisis, suggesting limited production numbers at the time and a greater reliance on Soviet SKS and Czech Vz.52 rifles. The video also touches upon the Hakim's presence in Yemen and Iraq, and its availability on the US surplus market. Production overlap with the Rasheed carbine is noted, with an estimated total manufacture between 70,000-80,000 units.
