Walked in our little local shop yesterday and spotted a WASR 10/63 on the rack. Actually, I was looking for one that I could inspect. To my surprise, the sights were absolutely straight, the bolt was smooth, fit was excellent (for a Romy), and the trigger was very nice. Took me about ten minutes to leave with it ! Hope to clean and lube tonight and shoot it tomorrow. This is my first Romanian, and if it shoots as good as it looks, I'll be extremely happy with it. Just wanted to share my good find.

There are good WASR's out there, you mostly just see posts on forums about the bad ones (which there are plenty of too).

I bought one form Hendersons's years ago when they were cheap and they went through the firearm to make sure everything was aligned. I kick myself for not getting more when ak's were selling for only $150.00 a pop.I never thought the prices would get as high as they are right now. My Romy is accurate for what it is. Enjoy it.

yeah, the prices have gotten downright stupid. what they allegedly lack in accuracy, they make up for in reliability. my question, would accurizing mine make it more finicky? i'm doubting it, but.....

Don't mind at all.....$529. Yeah, I know, but it ain't 2005 any more ! Actually, I'm very pleased to pay that for a little carbine that SEEMS to be put together as well as this one. HOPE I get to shoot it tomorrow.
