  7. My 308 conversion

    in Saiga .308

    Posted

    I would say he did it cause that way you know it will work and won't have to grind it down and if using a BHO the sides, where the pin goes through, are the right length from the get go. My bolt kept wanting to hang on the hammer cause it wasn't ground right to match the factory. Finally said scrwew it and went with original. I did the same thing.

    Not part of your parts count but you'll also need a disconector sping......it doesn't come with the trigger group. And a selector stop. And a p-grip nut. Some nylon plugs, e-clips or some other means of your choice to keep your pins in.

    Depends on what you are after but I like K-var and Onpoint. There are others. Look in the tech section, there is a list there.

    Wife said either the guns go or she does. I don't even miss her anymore. :haha:

     

     

    LOL. It hasn't come to that.........yet! She bitches about it though. I tell her it an investment. I think I bout got it beat though. Her and the daughter are my third hand on conversions.

     

    BTW. There is no cure for the disease, it only gets worse and worse.

    No I think the conversion looks really good (now go start your .308). I just didn't notice that the first time around. I know what you mean about people and holidays.......it's just gonna get worse. I thought you were going postal there with your I really hate people line :cryss: You can just go to ACE hardware or a mom & pop and spend about a buck and be complete! Well, then you will need some opticts.

    I can't tell for sure (second pic in first post) but did you fill the 2 holes on each side where the original trigger pins were? Right above your p-grip. You may already have it done and if so disregard the post, but at least to me it looks like they are open. You can get nylon plug fillers that will pop in there and it will look just like a factory rivet.......or real close to it. Just get the dull ones not gloss. Most hardware stores should have them.

  20. I want to convert my new .308

    in Saiga .308

    The .308 is the easiest so I've heard. I convereted my .308 and other than drillin the shit it wasn't hard. On mine the p-grip nut hole was there.......I think it was where the trigger was actually. You don't have to drill out the 2 trigger pins.

     

    The hammer will need to be reshaped like the original.......or use the original but then your down a part if your counting.

     

    Idon't know about the plate but I put two e-clips on each pin. Cost about a buck or less.

     

    I think your SOL on the pre-order.

     

    Do you have a BHO and do you know the twisty tie trick? If that isn't in the tech section it should be.

     

    You may have some issues with the selector (safety) switch and have to grind part of the hammer to clear a crossbar.

     

    Do some more searching and asking. I'm sure more will be able to add to this and give you more details if you need it. If you did the other you'll figure this one out. I got my 12 gutted and once I drill the pgrip nut and paint I'll be golden.

    Haha. Ok I don't feel bad, I'm in good company..........so when's the get together?! My spelling sucks anyway and I couldn't see and what I could was blurred and I was starting to get pre-occupied ;) I've tried to get into the chat room before but it's always empty or else I don't have the right software Java something or other. That could be interesting.
