Freshly converted Saiga 12: RAM Trigger Guard Tromix FCG Carolina Shooters Supply "vented" handguard Cobra's Customs "vented" gas tube cover (Bishop) Thumbhole Stock from an NHM-90 Above parts were ordered from CSS on May 2nd and Arrive in North Central Texas on the 4th Also have MD Arms V-Plug and both pistons styles (not installed, ordered direct from MD) Was a Typical "Vodka" Special, opened the 2 holes to about .093 and angled them and opened the gas block and slight polish Only issue since conversion was the right side trigger spring would not allow the trigger to re

Just an update... Fired rounds through the gun today... 3x on the 20rd drum twice shoulder fired once by the hip 100% reliable with walmart 7 1/2 bulk federal Once was as quick as I could pull the trigger from the shoulder 2x with surefire 12rd drum, fail to chamber last 2 rounds each time Very pleased now... Time for a conversion to begin Never installed any of the MD parts I ordered

I got it off last night... Of course the PB blaster had a chance to soak in, lol Took and had the wife hold it this time, and used a brass drift and hit the area where the hand guard attached... Made quick work of that while spraying oil Had 2 ports, I was covered... One was dead center in the barrel, the other right beside it just off the the right barrel facing away from you, and it was covered I went and enlarged the holes to 3/32 and keeping a nice angle Open the area on the gas block Reinstalled, getting the pins to line up was fun... I'll test this weeken

EDIT: 19" version I know first post, Im not new to working on guns, but working to get the gas block on this saiga 12 in a pain... both pins came out super easy (used green painters tape to hold the gas setting pin in place) Ive been soaking the gas block in PB blaster for a while now, Ive destroyed 1 shelf bracket, using descent sized/weight ball peen hammer Light taps, heavy hits, tried rotating which side I would hit... no dice I can not for the life of me get that gas block to move its a new saiga 12, build date was Jan 2009 (if I remember right) the gun is complete
