  1. I think the barrel pin is 5/32 so that means that I would need a 9/64 bit which I cant seem to find anywhere! Unless I get a 5/32 bit and somehow make a barrel pin one size up (whatever that might be?) Any ideas???
  2. Ok, I got the barrel tig welded and properly installed and headspaced. What kind or type of end mill bit should I use? there are a bunch of different types. I will have to order it because they dont sell any within about 60 miles away. I think the barrel pin size is 5/32 but its tapered. but it seems a 5/32 drill bit will fit into the hole.

  3. Would you happen to know what size of drill bit I should use to drill the pin hole and what size I should use as a barrel pin? How much larger should the pin be compared to that of the hole?
  4. I think I discovered the problem.. I removed the barrel pin today and gradually pushed the barrel out until the bolt would rotate into the trunnion lugs. I think I had the barrel in too far. How can I re-drill and re- pin the barrel without risking the barrel moving? Can I fill the groove in the barrel where I originally drilled with solder or JB weld and then re-drill?
  5. I recieved a Saiga 12 that needed the barrel replaced. I bought a new 18 inch barrel off of somebody that was sold as a second because of chamfering. I made some scribe lines on the receiver where the old barrel was so I would know how far to push in the new barrel. I installed the new barrel. The new barrel had a longer Tab? than the original barrel (to improve feeding issues?) . Anyway, To cut to the chase. I thought I installed it properly until I noticed that the bolt wont close into battery. (the bolt wont rotate into the front trunnion lugs). Note...I already drilled and put in the
