Hello one and all . . .

Have a friend that is trying to sell me a Romanian "single stack" AK.  Caliber of 7.62 x 39mm.   Comes with a couple of the 10 round single stack mags, but who want's a 10 round AK ?!?!?!?

So . . . .

I've read "somewhere" that these buggers can be coverted to a double stack mag.  Is that true ? ? ?
Doubt it would be much of a problem to "open" the receiver, but what about the truinion -- any modification needed there ? ?

Any other modification needed -- bolt, carrier ? ? ?

It this something I can do at home with "hand tools" -- Dremel, files, vise, die grinder ? ? ?

Will it be a RELIABLE AK once the mods are complete ? ?

Yes ? ?   No ? ?  

Any opnions ? ?

Thanks  ! ! !

Just open mag well..Nothing to it really...Is it a wasr???
No other mods should be needed..
Dremel and file should be all you need..And they are reliable..

Hello Jickey . .

Yes -- it's a WASR . .

Asking $175 -- but thinking he might take $150.  

I'll let you know if Iget it and "how it comes out".  

Thanks  ! !
