takezo 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Just got the FCG removed. Pins driled out. Rivets drilled out. Hand guard removed. Question: This Saiga (7.62 purchased 11 years ago) did not have a BHO or a BHO Spring. Nor did it have an AK retainer plate. What gives? Are the BHO's a more recent addition? Were the AK retainer plates also a more recent addition? A couple more questions: Can I install a BHO? Can I install an AK retainer? --and what does this thing do exactly? And if I added them--are there any US made that would add towards my 922r count? Will await anwers before proceeding. Don't want to screw the pooch. FRT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Not sure what your'e calling a "retainer plate", but these li'l dogies have never been "standard". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
takezo 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Okay, that's the little dogie I was talking about. What the heck does it do? Do I need this? And could it be considered a 922r part--should I carve one out of a single block of steel? lol FRT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

While it would be nice to just any US part, there is a specific list. Don't bother carving, that plate replaces a simple piece of spring wire. You can make your own wire, make your own plate out of a bean can, use hitch pins, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
