I like the idea of the Ace folder kits but i'm apprehensive of cutting the gun up just d one on my s12 very easy all you have to do it remove the tang on the back of your receiver. you do not have to remove the tang though to mount the ace stock it will just be offset on the block and will look "cosmeticly unpleasing" thats from the directions ace sent me i would just cut the tang very easy cut flush to the receiver in back and smooth thats it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bonesaw 1 Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 thanks for the reply! Is the tang something I could replace later on if I decided to go with a fixed stock or is this a one time shot? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At worst, you can send it to an AK smith and have it done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Motopilot1 37 Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 once you swith to the internal block ace stock you wont ever want to go back Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bonesaw 1 Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 K I just dropped the hammer on an ACE folding stock kit with the internal block. This is gonna be a fun conversion (also my first) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scoutjoe 276 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Sorry I missed this earlier, when I put the internal block in my S-12 (older EAA gun) we had to grind about an 1/8" off the front of the block (front as in the part that goes into the receiver first). I was just a clearance issue, there is still more than enough metal back there. Wasn't hard, but like I found out with my conversion "some fitting may be required" its not an AR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lammy 1 Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 When you cut the tang off, make sure the new receiver block is angled properly. If not, your stocks lines will not match that of the receiver. If you look at enough conversion pics you'll see what I mean. Has anyone actually removed the rear trunnion completely, and drilled out the new rear trunnion to fit and rivet in place? To be honest with you, comming from the builds I've seen and done before, the tang cutting/ bolting together thing seems kinda ghetto to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone removed the original saiga trunnion, and replaced it with the ACE, Tromix or other similar rear stock adapter (drilling the holes in it to rivet to the receiver, thus creating a new trunnion), instead of screwing it to the original saiga trunnion that had the tang cut off but left in the receiver?
