misternt 3 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 What is the hole on the right of that picture for? Looks like it vents out gas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gothmog 24 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 It is the over-gas relief port. After the cycle any left over ejection gas will vent through this port. HUZZUH!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobra 76 two 2,677 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 What is the hole on the right of that picture for? Looks like it vents out gas? Correct, it's there to vent excess pressure when needed...keeping the puck working efficiently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I shouldnt have been able to put the pins back in if it werent where it was from the start i would think???? Most saiga pins are a loose fit at best. Many are bend to fit tight. I afix receiver in a mill vise, then use adjustable wrench to align gas block. use a square to check, then install pins.
