Why I don't have a WASR...
From yesterday's post: Milled type 56, wood furniture from Ironwood Designs before they closed. This is essentially what we carried in Panama back in 90 chasing Noriega as our A-1s could not handle the jungle environment. The only time the A-1 didn't jam, was on TV was the joke. These T-56 AKs were bullet proof, shoot under water, caked with mud, used as a shovel and they fired all-damned-day (AND were fully auto). I'll never be without one. If you can obtain one of these, get it. Bakelite optional... and stamped receiver is fine. I like the additional heft of the milled. The wood is African Momosa. I have a few of them, this is the "pretty" one / safe queen.
