Need help with ak

[Bottlefed]

Picked up a master mold 47rd mag but can't get it to fit. Idea's on where to trim or just sell them?

Had same issue with tapco mags but just needed shaving the back clip. This one feels like its to thick at top?

 

[THard6]

what kind or (ak) do you have?

and it should be pretty easy to see what one you need to shave, (if you need to do so) the front lip on some can be larger than other, and you may need to file it down.
however pics would really help.

You shouldn't have to trim at all. Try working the mag in and out of the mag well a few times. Most poly mags will "shave" a little material off of themselves, where they hang up. Might take a little elbow grease, to get them in the first few times! FYI, this is pretty common with low end AKM's, and low end mags. Even some "high end" AKM'S will do this with certain poly mags.

that's why you're having trouble!


just joking, really if you post some pictures or your mag lip(s) and maybe your guns we could have a better idea.

wasr's are designed as single stack AK's and are dremeled out by Century to use std AK mags, and are snug quite often. try several types of mags and if all are real snug you may need to slightly dremel out the mag well

Sounds right it fits my sig556r like a glove

What's the best ak to buy I bought the wasr because it was cheap and I wanted an alternative to my ar's

Arsenal, Saiga (converted), VEPR, or anything that has been overhauled by Rifle Dynamics or Krebs Custom.

note: just because it is a WASR doesn't make it a bad gun, but in the spirit of answering your question I left out all the nuances of Romanian, Yugo etc lower end AKs.
