goldenpony 61 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Can anybody direct me to a link for a DIY video showing disassembly and rework of gas port system? I read somewhere the recommended size of the ports for a 3 hole gun is 3/32". Correct? I also read something about unshrouding the gas ports to make gun run better. Thanks.

The_Caged_Bird 474 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'm not sure that exists, I've never seen one anyway... I just removed the gas block and pretended I was air and tried to smooth out the hole in the gas block with a rat tail file. As for checking or enlarging the ports, it's pretty easy, the ports guide your bit to the right angle... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet Man 2,114 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) http://forum.saiga-1...cked-gas-ports/ its not a video but if you cant pick up what JeffD is throwing down, it might be best to pay to have the work done. Why that thread is not a sticky and some of the other horseshit threads are, is mind boggeling! Edited March 16, 2012 by Mullet Man 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lbsrdi 1,078 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 This is the only video I know of and it shows the incorrect way to do it. Skip to 7:00 to see how not to do it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1JLON0xkSY Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FunkedOut 91 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 damn. i can't think of a single thing i like about that video. at least it's all "included in the price of the conversion." and what does he toss and go looking for at 4:58? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guns Are Great 140 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 this guy has several videos on the saiga conversion process. After seeing this one I would suggest forum members and forum vendor advice for saiga conversions. I know it can be done many ways. But there are few RIGHT ways. In this case Removal of the gas block is the only right way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bcrider 68 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Has anyone seen the movie 8mm with Nicholas Cage? I seriously felt like I was watching a video of someone being murdered. Edited March 18, 2012 by Person Dog 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
