I have a WASR-3 5.45x39mm (AK-74) that I got off a guy I know for cheap. I got it cheap because the darned thing doesn't work! It operates in an almost semi-automatic function. Each time you fire, the bolt fails to cycle most of the time. Sometimes it gets hung up half way, and other times it doesn't even try to cycle.
He seems to have welded on (yeah, welded on) a '74 style muzzle brake, so the company won't fix it and he says he never tried to fire it before the brake was added, but I don't think that would upset the functioning. I know nothing about gunsmithing, but this problem seems to be in the receiver. Any suggestions on what I can try and/or anyone in my area (central Indiana) that would be able to fix it?
