Ok guys, bear with me. I know the WASR-22 is not a high quality piece (most of the WASR's aren't), but I am thinking about getting one. Why? Well, it's priced within my budget, and ammo is too. Furthermore, the wife wasn't excited about the prospect of having an AK-style rifle PERIOD, so it was a tough go convincing her about even a .22. So, that said, I would like to hear some experiences with these rifles. What kind of problems do they have? FTEs? Parts falling off? What tricks are there to make them "reliable?" Also, are any magazines available that hold more than 10 rounds? I did some searching and just could not come up with satisfactory answers.
I appreciate thoughts/comments as they come. Honestly, I would prefer to go with a GSG-5, but those are just too expensive. The only other option would really be a WASR-2, since 5.45x39 is cheap enough, but those aren't available anywhere. Unfortunately, no real AKs for me right now.
