gregomega 929 Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Dinzag for the conversion http://www.dinzagarms.com/saiga_12/aks12.html or Legion for an already converted RSB mod S12 https://legionusainc.com/iz-412-saiga-12.html 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pimpmastak76 21 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Superhawk138, is that the Dinzag short front sight block on yours? I am in the process of doing the RSB swap on mine and my Dinzag short FSB seems to line up almost perfectly with my modified AKM RSB. I am trying to make the gas tube removable as well as making the AKM RSB removable like the stock S12 RSB is, so I am modifying mine to hook in to the trunnion instead of welding it in. No idea if it will work though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No idea if it will work though. Welding to trunuin is an acceptable method. Legion has been doing it for years on dozens of models. All of the new legion models with AK RSB's, including the Iz433 / 030 for example use this method also. I'm not sure on Superhawk138's I had to build my own for my own projects.

pimpmastak76 21 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Oh, I know it's acceptable and being done by others, I just want to be able to swap back to stock if I want, not that I can see myself actually wanting to, but who knows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's cool Mine also slips in exactly as the stock gas tube block does but to keep it from cantilevering up at the front I tiged a small fillet on thr trunuin just as legion does. There are several popular legion modls that they just set the modified AK RSB on top of the barrel and weld on thr existing gas block Factory Mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pimpmastak76 21 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Damn, that's a really good idea, thanks letting me know about that. I will have to try that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
