larain60 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 The FSB on a 7.62 is not budging! I removed the pins, cut it down the center (but am not sure when to stop cutting so dont want to cut into barrel. I even heated the fsb with a propane torch! I have access to a 12 ton press, but what do you use for a jig to steady the barrel in the press. Can I make one out of 2x4's and cut a hole wide enough to tightly fit around barrel, then cut in half and place it under the fsb? Any help would be appreciated!

Motopilot1 37 Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 well a chisel would work well with a heavy hammer, obviously your not worried about messing the fsb up as you have already cut it. i put my rifle muzzle on the floor and put the chisel on the back of the fsb and gave her a few smacks. came right off.

larain60 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) Well got the FSB off... had to dremel it down a bit more and hit it with a chisel. Man was that a stubborn SOB. The barrel surface got gouged about a 1/2" longways underneath either by the dremel (probably) or chisel, but it doesnt even register on the calipers (its less than what a thread would be) and will be covered. Thanks for the advice! Edited July 4, 2008 by Larain60 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
