I know that the gp is for the rifles with preban stuff on them.......not sure what 63 means........all wasr's where single stack only, untill they where imported to this country.....I know that the new wasr's do have U.S parts.....some of the older Romanian ak's did not have U.S parts

that is a very old WASR (one of the first ones made) THe 63 is for the year that Romania began to make their own AKMs- 1963. I have seen one of those a gun show too. I wish I had gotten it because it was unique but I already have 2 Wasrs and dont want another.

I'd like to know what this means too. I have a Romy that's stamped GP WASR-10/63 but the serial number on the trunion ends in 84. From what I've gathered the 84 is the year of manufacture but I haven't found anything that tells what the 63 stands for.

Obviously these are put together with surplus parts - not new manufacture.

Yes, Does that mean mine was made in 04? because I bought it Jume of 2004. Thats awefully quick for the Rommys to make it and ship it over here, I never knew former Communists could be so effecient
