I just picked up one of these at the gunshow this past weekend (i went looking for a Winny '94 but couldn't find one).  Now i'm trying to field strip it and i can't seem to get the cover off.  According to the instructions i should press in on the "bolt guide" or something like that while pulling up.  I can't get the cover to budge using that method or the traditional AK method.  Can someone help me?  Also anyone have any idea where i can pick up spare mags?

Thanks.

I have an AKT-98, which should be similar to what you have.  Mine field strips exactly like a regular AK.  Just push on on the "recoil spring guide button" (for lack of a better term) and the cover should come off.

Regarding extra mags, you might try SOG (http://www.southernohiogun.com/)  I picked up several of them about 10 months ago.  

Good luck!  Hope this helps.

Yup, push the button at the rear of the dust cover and it should pop right off. That is, unless you have one of those Armscor units, in which case I am of no help.
