I have fixed two of these.
The problem I have found is between the gas tube and the gas block. If it is corroded, worn or the gas tube is just too short the weapon will not cycle. A new gas tube like the ones from tapco (make sure you get a yugo tube, they are different) will fix the problem...
I have an AK I built about 4 years ago a random pile of parts. It lives in the corner of my woodshed in the wet coastal hills of oregon. It has lived exclusively on a diet of cast lead bullets with gas check, from wheel weights, from a lee 7.62x39 mold. Loaded just so it will reliably cycle the...
