I'm on my way to the store to pick up a dremmel. Then I'm coming home to start cutting. I've seen the how to guide in the Romanian forum. Any helpfull hints or cautions I should be weary of? Someone once said something about the trunions being different so the mags wouldn't work. Any info on this? Also, as long as I take out the FCG bolt and everything else, will it be legal until I get my 5 US made parts in the mail? I have a SAR1 already so I can shoot that until the WASR gets the American parts. |
I don't really think the ATF or anyone else is going to wander in for a random inspection unless you give them reason to, but when I was working on my Maadi single stack conversion I had the same problem. My parts were long in coming and so I ended up just leaving everything dissasembled until I knew I had right # of parts. I think you'll be okay. |
How do I figure out whether the trunion is for single stacks only or if it will accept high cap mags before I start cutting? If it would take cutting the trunnion I think I'd rather not run the risk of messing up the gun. Granted it was only $150 but I'd rather have a $150 single stack than a $150 paper weight.

WASR's come with reciever cut to accept single-hook triggers. Double will work, but you'll have to dremel an extra little notch in the reciever. If you're already hacking the magwell open, no big deal at all. I still don't much understand the fascination for an extra hook on the FCG though. |
| Anyone know of a probably-not-so-much-easier but dremel-less way of opening up the magwell. Dropping $70 on something I wouldn't use again or for a while doesn't really fit in the budget. Not so sure they'd like me bringing a firearm into the school anytime soon. |
Get a cheap chinese POS from harbor freight. Not as refined as a true dremel, but like you said, youll never use it again. |
