cino 3 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 So I picked up a "Factory" converted 7.62 today. I noticed it has a tapco trigger and few other American made parts. this leads me to a few questions. I am a little confused on what they did and who did it. was this really converted at the factory I assume a us saiga factory? is the trigger group a g2 modified? I have not taken it apart but it looks like the spring I left out during my pg conversion is still intact? i guess really my question is what is the difference in getting the Factory conversion over getting dinzag or css parts. The one+ is a welded bullet guide over tap and drill but the rest i am unsure about. just learning as I go. Tia Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djt1991 1 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Does it still have the factory handguard or an ak handguard . I just picked one up too. They are converted by the importer rwa. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BigChongus 765 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Some of these were converted by Century as well. What spring are you talking about? The BHO Spring? Edited October 16, 2015 by W8lifter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cino 3 Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) it has the factory hand guard and has a stamp RWC group I think I did not need the Shepard Hook (spring) because of the retaining plate I installed but now I have a strong urge to go back over what I have done since I had been reading a lot about converting a 12 and a 7.62 at the same time Edited October 16, 2015 by cino Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cino 3 Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 my question is what is the difference in getting the Factory conversion ( receiver stamped RWC group) over getting dinzag or css parts. The one+ is a welded bullet guide over tap and drill but unsure about the rest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imarangemaster 315 Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Factory conversion casts more! Bullet guide and tap is $18 from CSS. Tapco FCG is $30, modify your own trigger guard, and stock $50 from Kvar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Machinist 150 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 If you have the RWC conversion, they use the Tapco G2 trigger and trigger guard. RWC uses CAA butt stock and forearm with a vertical grip attached to forearm. Does this describe your gun? Not sure what Century work done on their guns... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not sure what Century work done on their guns... I think the least they can get away with: rivet on a trigger guard, touch up paint the bottom. shove on a tapco stock. Drop in a G2 with the front hump ground off the hammer axle but not a corrected profile. A little shave on the right to clear the BHO. install bullet guide. Done. They wouldn't get more money for more work, unless they did a lot more work. So they don't do more refinement or finer finish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have this... with mag latch filed down to far when I got it but I opted to fix instead of sending it back to factory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
