57 557 5557 Thanks Mike

Adder: I drove the pin out & removed the piece & spring. Took S-12 to the garage & used the Dremel, then fine tuned with a large flat file. You saved my day, as the new plug screws in and out easily now. I don't know why i didn't think of that solution. Now i got to find that can of rust-oleum. Thanks much!!!!!

So the barrel should be thick enough there to do that, without causing problems? (THANKS)

I received my new Gunfixer from CSS on 11-27-09. It hits the barrel and will not thread into the gas block. The factory plug was very hard to remove also, as i thought i'd break something while trying to remove it. I see video's of people just unscrewing the plug by hand, but mine is so close to the barrel, upon removal of the factory plug it made grooves in the barrel which look like thread marks. Filing down the original would be no problem, but the Gasfixer has much more contact area. Anyone had this problem & what did you do to remedy it? Forbyfor

I'm new to the forum. Just got my Saiga-12 about 2 weeks ago. When i checked the gas ports (using a bent paper clip ) i could only run it thru 2 holes, but not the third. After punching out the pins & driving the block forward on the barrel with a brass drift, i found that i had 1 port that was not completely drilled all the way thru (into the barrel). Using a 5/64" drill bit and a center punch, there are now 4 gas port holes. This thing is now firing cheap 1 oz. shot with ease.
