But it still ejects with enough force that brass gets absolutely chewed

i just picked up my AK this month. still getting used to it

What kind did you buy?

Pre-ban Wasr10-63.

Aks are so expensive in my state since we cant get them.

Freaking WASR's cost over a grand

Good lord

Here's my rig

yea, in MA you can only buy AKs made pre 1994

i asked an AK question earlier but no one knew. maybe you can help, i was cleaning today and the trigger retainer spring fell out. Its a pain in the ass to get in. any idea a easier way to do it?

what handguard is that?

i like it

This spring?

yea, mines diff though

i just ordered a steel retainer instead. save me the hassle next time

Yeah, I was gonna say to just buy a plate

They're way better

I've never messed with those, myself

The stock sheperds hook

As for my handguard, it won't fit a WASR

This is mine

Good lookin machine

I didn’t wanna mess with it. Came out when I was cleaning. I just won’t shoot it till the plate comes in. Should be here Monday

Yeah

The plates are so cheap that it's almost a free upgrade

yea, came to 10 bucks with shipping

next thing i gotta do is replace that horrid pistol grip. its so small.

and look into rail.

See if Carolina Shooter's Supply has anything that interests you

Supplying Patriots is also a good place

Same with Legion USA

never heard of these guys

thanks

No problem

@Miater Hey, be aware of the federal 922(r) when you're upgrading

Now that that just crossed my mind

If I get a shotgun I can add 12 gauge to the line-up

My pride and joy 😋

I have a ruger 10/22
