So I got a WE AKS74U and I have come to the realization after much fondling and close inspection of it that there are no replacement parts available, excluding of course the nozzle and trigger components.

I really wanted to use this gun as my main GBBR but it seem that I cannot source the trigger box itself or more annoyingly any plastic outer shells for the magazine.

I have two magazines and both have hairline cracks in the plastic mag catch area.

I think petitioning WE may be the only way to resolve this issue!? As they seem to have poor customer service I hear.

I am sure this is the reason why they never released there CO2 magazines for the AK series as it would shake them to pieces.

I am dreaming but it would be nice if an aftermarket company produced a "bakelite" version of the WE AK74 magazine with steel lips impregnated in the plastic mold. I could see myself paying $15 for something like that as opposed to $35 to $80 dollars a magazine every time the plastic lip breaks.
