Just wanted to put my Saiga 223 in here for the history.
-
I just received my Arsenal single stage trigger in the mail. The hammer contacts the rear of the saiga bolt 100% flat. I'm throwing this Tapco G2 s*** in the trash, and never ever buying a Tapco product ever agian.
-
Does anyone else have this problem? (Dent and deformation at the rear of the bolt)
-
Yes, I noticed there is two kinds of Tapco G2's I got this one. You can see the curvature on the hammerface in this picture, it's not perfectly flat. Then there is this one
-
Is the hammer face suppose to hit the rear of the bolt perfectly flat? I've flattened the hammer face on my Tapco G2, but it doesnt hit/engage of the rear of the bolt completely flat, it strikes it at a slight angle.
-
What does re-profiling the hammer do? Is my bolt still salvagable?
-
Does this mean the G2 is not compatible with saiga 223's? I thought it was drop in. Could I have bought a very old version of the G2? I bought it from midwayusa.

Let me run to my brothers apartment for a camera.

When my saiga 223 was unconverted and was in it's factory config, Ive put 800 rounds through it and the rear of the bolt looked fine. Now when I converted it and added a tapco g2 unit, this problem appears after 100 rounds.
-
I took apart and inspected my saiga 223 after a range session and I noticed that the rear of the bolt (where the hammer strikes the firing pin) has been deformed. I noticed that the Tapco g2 hammer face has a rounded hammer face to it, and is not flat. Now the "butt" of the bolt has an inward bulge/ deformation to it that matches the rounded hammerface of the G2. What can I do to correct this, or is this not a big deal at all?
