    Had a weird issue with my WASR where it was slapping my face bad when I fired it. Put a buffer in for s..t's and giggles and it seemed to help. The biggest improvement to smoothing things out was straightening out the rails. Literally, it looked like a drunken monkey beat on the rails with a hammer. Don't get my wrong I love the thing, but they did have issues in the past that linger in peoples minds.
    Change the FCG. I had one, a Polish underfolder, that was beating the living crap out of my cheek. The FCG had the disconnect hanging on the hammer. I got the fix information off AKfiles.com and was amazed at how smooth it was after changing out the entire FCG with a Tapco.

    Early WASRs had horrible FCGs that Century put it n before they switched to Tapco G2s. The first WASR I had about 2007 was terrible. They were awefultripper slap nd jump. This has a G2 FCG in it already.
