Hey all!
Considering an AK in 5.56 on down the line, simply because I've got so much ammo in that caliber laying around to feed my Black Rifles. The Arsenal SAM-5s are the cream of the crop, but way too pricey for my tastes, and hard to find. Vepr IIs are nice, but too heavy. That leaves the Romies. I've seen several references to the SAR-3s and WASR-3s "having problems" but never anything specific. I'm aware of the hammer-geometry issue in the SAR-3s and the appropriate fix (swap in a RSA hammer). What are some of the other known problems and remedies you've encountered in these models?
Thanks!
