DANGERRUSS 0 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 It has been a while since I did my S-12conversion. I now have a S-308 that I need to "de-nuter". I have a question on the FCG. Will a retaing plate work in the 308? I used a modded one for my S-12, but I have read that some safty leavers have to be ground on for clearence with the hammer. So I do not know if the intererence will also preculde using a retaining plate. Thanks for any responses. Russ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The safety lever may need to be relieved to fit over the disconnecter, not the hammer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bayoupiper 738 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 One thing I've found with Saiga .308s is the factory safety lever is ground down too far for the Tapco trigger group. If you use that trigger group, (and maybe others?) get yourself a regular AK safety lever! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SGT Saiga 1 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I used a Tromix modified Tapco FCG. Rifle has been shooting great - no safety lever issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
