    Best place for AK parts online?

    Hello guys. I bought a pre-ban CAI WASR 10/63 over the weekend and I got a smoking deal on it that I just could not pass up. The rifle is in great condition, with some regular shooter wear. Piston looks great, most of the internals look solid. Two things that I noticed when I broke the rifle down in front of the guy, and when I got home, is that the dust cover is extremely difficult to get back on the rifle. I'm a big guy and I had a ton of pressure on it, and I just could not get it to click. I found out through further examination that the dust cover was good to go, but the trunnion was worn down, a tad rough and not allowing the cover to come down over the tabs. So, I am planning on replacing the trunnion with a new model, I may replace the dust cover down the road. Also, the pin the hold the upper hand guard is worn down to a nub and most of it is gone, I can get it off with pliers but not with my hands, that also needs replaced.

    I am looking at this rifle as a truck gun to make Montana runs that I frequently do to visit family. I would like to know a good place online to get AK replacement part that I can fix/enhance my rifle with. I plan on getting a rifle dynamics M4 style buffer tube, and some kind of rail down the road, but right now I'm just looking to fix the problems I have right now. I also have not had a chance to shoot it as of yet, but I plan to this weekend. Any help would be appreciated!

    From what I am seeing, and please correct me if I'm wrong, all pre-ban WASR's are Romanian Ak's?

    Yes, WASR's are Romanian.

    It should have a Romanian proof mark on the trunnion. A triangle or a triangle with an upwards arrow inside, similar to a Russian proof mark. Do a google search on Romanian AK proof marks. You'll see what I mean.

    I've already got most of these guys pegged for performance upgrades, sights, rails, etc. But I do appreciate the reminder.
