kolya 0 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Almost finished with my 5.45x39 conversion and had some questions before continuing. Today I replaced my GB and FSB but haven't drilled the holes and put the pins in yet. I received an order of parts for this conversion today and the pins I ordered were left out, so I'm wondering if there's anything else I could use as suitable replacements for the pins. Also, since this is my first time working on a rifle to this extent, I'm not fully confident I have the GB aligned. Light and air both appear to be passing through the gas port, but for all I know the hole could be half covered by the GB. Just wondering if it's alright to take it out and fire off a couple rounds to test functionality before drilling and putting the pins in. Other than that, all I should have left is to put in the bullet guide and k-var handguard (arriving tomorrow from Dinzag) and cut the HG retainer notch on the barrel. Poor quality pic attached...

saigafreake 27 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 you can get similar pins at the hardware store and it will be just fine shooting it with out the pins. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
