    All that is required to make the double stack mags fit is to open up the mag well and the welded in guides with a dremel till the magazine fits. HOWEVER, if you do this you will have an illegal rifle. You will need to install some U.S. made parts to make it compliant. Century gets away with importing these rifles with all Romanian parts because the rifle is considered a "sporting" arm. If you modify it to take double stack it is no longer a "sporting" arm by U.S. definition. This is one of the resons why the WASR double stack rifles cost $100 more, Century has to put in new parts.

    I got an AK stock from the Classified section here on PAFOA. Check there or post a WTB in there. Military Gun Supply has them and so does Classic Arms. You could get a composite from TAPCO or somewhere like that. Of course there is always GunBroker.

    Oh, if its 5.45x39 it is a WASR 2. WASR 10's are 7.62x39

    Typically windage adjustments on Aks are done by drifting the front sight post, Now I'm not 100 percent familar withe the WASR 2 but there is a tool for this adjustment on the standard AK
    Here is a link to Tapco and you can see what I mean

    The standard AK sight tool will work. If you fall in love with AKs, it's the best $8 you can spend.
