Hi djkarnes......welcome to TFF.

That's going to be a tough one. Golden State Arms didn't actually manufacture firearms. They imported and subcontracted various firearms constructed by European and Japanese manufacturers.

I was able to find this on the internet: http://kalashnikov.guns.ru/wwwboard/messages/10644.html

I'd suggest that you take the rifle to a gunsmith for a "hands on" examination. He should be able to tell you the caliber, and perhaps who the actual manufacturer was. He might also know of a source for, or can order you, the parts you need.
