How much do you want to do yourself? The part that took me the longest, welding up the unused holes, isn't even mandatory. The next longest was modding an AK47 TG, they are now available already to rivet on from AK-builder. next was modding a G-2 hammer to fit, they are available already done from Tromix etc. Deduct those three procedures and I would say about an hour. Cutting the PG T-nut opening is really the only thing left to do.
-
Is this something new? The reason I ask is because the question has been asked many times, but until now, nobody has been able produce an definitive ATF ruling on it.

nemesis, What size is the hole? From the pic it looks to be around 1/4". It may be too large for this, but, If you can get away with a 12-24 bolt, you could get a button head bolt and run it up from the bottom. Not ideal, but it would look a whole lot better than what you have now. black adder, Who has too much time on their hands?

It looks like you are well on your way to correcting the problem. I applaud you at least having the balls to attempt a legitimate conversion and not use one of those bolt on T6 wannabe conversions. That are not even a conversion at all since you are still stuck dealing with all that mickey mouse trigger linkage. Just one thing, please tell me that, that ugly ass nut and bolt holding the front of the TG on is just temporary.

The pic of the S-12 you posted in this threads first post is mine. Here is where I got the recoil pad that's on it. recoil pad Edit to add. I just went back and read the whole thread. I didn't originally see that you already got one.

I bought one of these (at $375 for a complete M4 upper, the deal was just too good to pass up) it comes with a UTG quad rail. The thing is freakin HUGE. I realize that this is an AR version, but it is much bigger than the trirail I got from DPH for my S-12. The UTG is uncomfortably large. M4 upper

Here's the correct layout.
-
Use this pic to compare how much clearance exists between the trigger and the TG, when it's installed in the correct position.

The PG T-nut should not run into the old trigger slot at all. Take a look at this pic. You can see the square hole for the T-nut is completely forward of the welded up trigger slot. I just took a piece of scrap sheet metal, trimmed it to fit and welded up the old slot completely. The T-nut hole is at least a 1/4" forward of that. Trying to reuse the original holes that are in the wrong location, is what caused all your problems. For a TG, I just modified a standard AK TG.

+1 restoring the gun to original configuration increases the LOP

+1 Not just safety glasses but hearing protectors also. They are always in my range bag ready to go. If we had known of the long term impact of not wearing eyes and ears in the old days, I wouldn't be half deaf today. I know of no ranges that will let you anywhere near the firing line without both in place. It's too late for Me, but it's a good policy. Huh? could you speak up a little?

I would have voted somewhere between Yep, no problem and Yes, but I caught hell in the process. It's a little tricky, but very manageable.
