Fixed this by boring out the hole in the sight base and installing a real AKM pin which was larger, did the trick. Other than that no problems whatsoever... The mags could be easier to maintain as I have had a few pop seals, winter project is to sit down, strip them down to parts, soak in oil a few days and reassemble and they should be fine.
Are the leaks on the shaft of the striking part of the valve,that is where mine
is leaking on the first GHK they made. The silver shaft has two orings,but the
brass cylinder it rides in is rough.
