Shandlanos 1,470 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Mark sells front sight blocks with bayo lugs for the AK-74, would probably work for a 7.62 rifle with the correct muzzle device. If you're looking for a gas block with bayo lug to refang a ban-style rifle, you might have to buy an AKM kit, or find a company or individual who buys them and parts them out. Apex Gun Parts might be a good place to look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if they'd work for 7.62. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 87 Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Thanks, I have found a couple. Now on to my next big question. If I purchase a new one am I going to run into fitment issues? Because of different manufacturing will I have trouble aligning port hole and pins or is this something that can just "install"?? Info is greatly appreciated as always! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KC913 324 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Pick up a Bulgarian 90 degree gas block like MARKW1 sells. And stay away from 45 degree gas blocks. It needs to be 90 degree. Here is the difference between45 degree and 90 degree gas blocks: 45 degree on top, 90 degree on bottom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 87 Posted August 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Awesome I would have never paid attention,thanks. Other than that shouldnt be any major fitment issues (not like an S-12)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lone Eagle 839 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) No fitment issues, but be warned, the FSB and gas block are pressed on uber tight. I helped a friend replace his FSB on his Saiga last night, and we ended up having to use the neighbor's hydraulic press to get it loose. He now has a standard FSB and threads.

I have no idea, but if I were to guess I would say the 90 has a shorter port length and more direct to the gas tube. Maybe flows better? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
