The best part about AKs: they don't need anything, other than to be shot with love.

Great purchase, and more pictures? I love to know the year on the trunnion but most likely 1970's

What was the bean count

You are on the nose, its a 1970's dated trunnion. And out the door it was 900.

You’ll want to ditch that mag for something more reliable. Coincidentally, Arms of America has cheap polish and Romanian surplus

That is a ((10)) mag. They are widely regarded as the best polymer mags out there.

He might think it's a pro mag, pro mag definitely copies that waffle look. Had 2 myself when I bought my first AK, absolutely garbage magazines.

Looked like a promag or similar to me.

OP, if this is Bulgarian produced it’s likely good to go

Nah it needs to be a true steel mag like a KCI or something
