After fitting to my gun, i had to use the cork fix to get my promag to work.
Sounds like im glad i didnt have to "try" to use the warranty.
I would not recomend a promag nor will i ever buy another one.

Just finished my conversion, two issues I could use some advice on.
1. Safety lever comes too far up in the safe position, it still functions though. Is this a common problem on a conversion?
Ya, has nothing to do with conversion, i did the detent thing, works well
sory cant help on your other ?
-
yes, it is normal, you dnt have to eas the action on it, just let er go and it will fully close.
setting 1 for high brass
setting 2 for low brass
you can try low brass on setting 1 but probly "fte" fail to eject
Real hard on the gun shooting high brass on setting 2
hope i helped, i sure other peeps will chime in if i dnt explain well enough

I used the dimple method to solve this problem, got a little off on the saftey one but got it to work.

This happened to me last time i was out, i to have the tromix fcg. It only happened twice tho, out of 140 rnds, one while using wally world 2 3/4" #8, the other using #2 3" remington bird. It only happened when i was trying to bumpfire. I dnt know what it is either. I am pretty positive it has nothin to do with gas settings, on my three hole, because it does cycle just fine, "well it stove pipes on setting 1 with low brass as it always has, and should as i understand" just seems like fireing pin dnt strike or somethin, because the two that failed to fire i did rechamber and they shot fine. I did polish bolt, carrier, feed ramp, hammer, and trigger parts. So i have no clue either

Same thing happened to me. I used the same video, i never got the retaining plate to work, even tried to modify it. Lucky the fcg i got came with the sheperds crook and it been workin just fine. Yep, i spent a long ass time also, got all kinds of frustrated, all because i wanted to use the retaining plate.
I know a lot of peeps use the plate, but they need to modified and cobra sells modified ones. The sheperds crook been just fine tho.
Ya i couldnt find a video or easy install on the retaining plate. I even trided to notch out the saftey lever hole on the plate to try to get on with the saftey in, i even tried to bend it around and stuff, then it finaly broke.

At the risk of sounding like an environmentalist hippie.....Don't be that guy, please clean up after yourself, it makes us all look bad when you don't. That's a big reason why there's not as many free public places to shoot anymore.
I know i cant find any! open sand/gravel pits around anymore, they were a dime a dozen when i was a kid.
So the couple places i have found to shoot at, for free that is, i make sure to pick up all my hulls, and brass.
The hulls easy to pick up, my revolver's shells way easy, now the semi's i try my best to get them all.
"Pack it in pack it out"
Now if i had enough property to have my own range, i would'nt pick any of them up.
I would make my kids. lol hehe

Mad props on your conversion and thanks for the killer write up
-
well i read this thread and went for it, eventualy i want to go with a gali style handgaurd, but till then.
dremel, drill and painters tape and this is how it came out.
what u guys think ?

I think the PG non buttstock is strange...I just don't see the point. Nice collection of AGPs. Not really sure what the video is all about. Let's see them loaded and going through the paces.
ya lot of s12 mags there, no room for the poor little xd. Nice get up tho.
-
my tromix fcg from css came with a sheperds crook, luckly since i couldnt get the retaining plate to work.
ya have fun chilerelleno, i regret waiting as long as i did.
-
Mine does the exact same thing, before and after conversion and polishing.
Remember that the S-12 is not a "handle with kid gloves" gun. It's a "slap it on the ass and get me a beer bitch" type of firearm. Pull the bolt back and let her fly. She'll do fine.
LOL
nicely putt bear8u hehe -
ya i ordered 2 for my conversion and found they were to short, i just used my old ones.
im surprised css said they wont affect performance of gun, but if used u will have two sumwhat holes showin on the side of your reciever
the other part i ordered and dnt end up usin was the tapco axis retaining plate, UMMM YAAA, they dnt just drop in to the s12, cobra sells modified ones.
i would like to give mass props to carolina shooter supplies, i ordered my parts and they were at my door with the quickness. parts were here before i could get my gun tore down and preped ready for conversion.

I'm working on getting some auto and manual BHOs made here in the US, as we speak.
I definatly want a auto bho once u get finished, i just remember u say in the meantime to just keep using our manual bhos, hehe i just moded mine a little to much. Like i said it still works just not like i want.
O and i would like to thank everyone on this site, because i used all the info here to succesfully do my conversion. Cobras write up on the reason for the conversion realy got things going for me.
My hardest part was cutting the pistol grip hole, i realy recomend the tromix handgaurd, im one of the lucky ones who have been recently laid off, and couldnt afford.
I would realy like to have a look see at what drbormental has on the lbho.
thx again for all the help
-
anyone know where i can find a bho ? stock or aftermarket. only place i have found them is on this site store and they are out of stock. I just got done with my conversion and in the process i cutt then grinded "rounded" the bho down to short, i mean it still functional, but not like the way i intended to use it, "counting rounds, then using top of trig finger to lock bolt" my dumbass made to short, so i am in serch for a new one. any help on were to find one would be most appreciated.
smokey slugs.
