I have a very strange problem - you know that button on the left side of the rifle you have to push to push the bolt carrier forward to get the dust cover off? The retaining nut on the right hand side fell off. Any idea where I can score a new one?

Stake or Loctite the nut.

Do you think this firearm is safe to shoot without it installed?  Why does the m70 have it and no other aks do?

Perfectly safe, the lock button assembly has no effect on rifle function.



M70s have it because of the Yugoslavian fetish with launching grenades from their AKs.  It keeps the dust cover from flying off.
