JonTheSavage 0 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) This has been asked before, I know. I have a T6 Tapco stock. What are the advantages to conversion? Does it make the gun more reliable to restore it? I won't attempt it myself, since I already have maybe $700+ in the gun, I'll have a gunsmith do it.

Phoenix Maximus 1 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 the balance is better, the trigger is far better, FAR better feel to the whole thing. It just totally changes it the feel of the gun. gives you at least 3 compliance parts just with the new FCG, which is nice if you want to use MilSurp mags. it's easy as hell, hardest part honestly is just the patience to take your time and to grind off the triggerguard. dropping in the new FCG is so simplistic it hurts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only have $650 into mine with full conversion inuding Kvar furniture, 24mm FSB, brake and Bulgarian bayonet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only have $650 into mine with full conversion inuding Kvar furniture, 24mm FSB, brake and Bulgarian bayonet! I can see how he can get to that figure and beyond easily. I'm looking at a side-mounted rail for mine, an Aimpoint, a Krebs peep sight, Krebs safety, a handguard rail, a front grip, a good sling, and probably some other stuff, in addition to conversion parts.

fxhart 14 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 ... Krebs safety,... Don't waste your money! I have one and I'm not impressed. If you want it the notch cut it yourself and if you want the finger tab send to Dinzag or a local smith. The notch is curved and it is not at all comfortable or easy to manipulate.
