Help Identify-Mitchell Import RPK?

Hi,
I'm new to the AK world and trying to decide on my first purchase. I have someone local with one of these and even with all my looking I'm still not sure if it is a good buy or the real deal.

Pre-Ban M90 - Mitchell Import RPK made in Yugoslavia 7.62 x 51 (.308 NATO) Is what its listed as... He said he is the original owner and bought it 8-9 years ago. He doesn't have the customs letter from when it came over seas during the ban but is looking for it.. Is this the real deal Mitchell Import? He's asking 1400 for it

Thanks for all your help! Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated

does it have importation stamping?? as in the importer mark. the electro penciling looks a bit sketchy with some things being etched out. spare parts will be non existant. i would prolly skip as a first rifle especially in the current climate.

of course thats just my opinion
