chupa 34 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Finally made the decision to convert. I was wondering what is so hard about using a regular tapco G2 fcg and pay $32.99? I understand something needs to be done to fit, but how hard is it to do? I know you can purchase it from dinzag for $52.00. Is it really a dropin design? Did anyone out there use different fcg for some helpful input. I did search and could not find a direct answer as to what is done to the fcg to make a $20.00 more, without contacting dinzag himself. I know someone in here has the answer I'm looking for. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Throw the bolt hold open away, and any single hook trigger group is "drop in". The BHO isn't needed on rifles, anyway, IMHO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chupa 34 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 this is my cart from dinzag. Am I forgetting anything? I'm not including drill bits and tools, I already have them. FCGG2SH G2 FCG Single Hook $34.00 AKPGNS AK PG Nut w/Screw $9.00 AKNYHP Hole Plugs $1.00 AKRETP AK FCG Ret Plate $15.00 TGHWARE1 Triggerguard Hardware $1.00 how critical is it to trim the hammer for fit on the g2 fcg?

Allow me to repeat myself, with highlights: Throw the bolt hold open away, and any single hook trigger group is "drop in". The BHO isn't needed on rifles, anyway, IMHO.

chupa 34 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 thanks nalioth, i get it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmax4x4 68 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 if you wanted to keep it you would grind the thickness of the BHO off the right side tube of the hammer. But as nalioth said not much point on a rifle. I am glade I have it on my 12 ga. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oxyehho 8 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 thanks nalioth, i get it. I have BHO and I like it. It takes 10 mins to file the clearance for the BHO on the right side of the hammer. I also cut the BHO lever as it binds the trigger finger once you move the group forward. Do a search on this site for how to on this mod. It is also very easy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nalioth 405 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 While you are ordering don't forget a disconnector spring.... What's the matter with the disco spring that's already in the rifle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lakedweller 10 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 While he is ordering he for $2 he won't have to dig the old one out..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 While he is ordering he for $2 he won't have to dig the old one out..... So it's worth $2 to you to NOT have to knock out a pin to get the disco spring? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lakedweller 10 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Yup Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pm-40 0 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 To avoid the mistake I made be patient and look on here for advice before making any hasty decisions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chupa 34 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 That sucks PM-40, sorry to hear about that. Not looking too far ahead at this point as to doing the bullet guide, I am a pipefitter and have seen first hand what happens when a tap breaks off in the bolt hole on a flange of a fitting. I don't have any good advice to help you in your situation, it doesn't look good, imo. We would usually burn it out with a torch and then re-tap it, this is definitely not going to help you in your case! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
