HELP: where to drill for mag release cross pin???

cpileri · September 17, 2004, 14:15

I have a trigger guard that I want to install but it has no hold for the magazine release lever cross pin!
Anyone know exactly how to measure the correct place to drill it out so that it functions properly?

Or, anyone jnow where to get one with the hold already drilled?
With the mag release assembly already installed???

Here's mine:http://www.k-var.com/product.asp?0=216&1=254&3=350

Thanks!

Uhhhh....... whatcha talkin' about????

The trigger guard is on the lower receiver... and the magazine release is in the upper receiver. The two have NOTHING to do with each other.

A-HA... I just clicked on your picture. YOU'RE IN THE WRONG FORUM, DUDE, THIS IS FOR FAL's NOT AK's.

P.S. Are you taking about an AK triggerguard?

Really?

A few weeks before I went AWOL Jen cooked up a brand-new forum called [The AK Files. Did it become the bastard step-child or something?? Get locked down along with DB?? Taken over by the evil forum-swiping powers that tried to hijack this site??? Nobody cares to click their mouse over??

The AKFiles is doing fine. Because of the shortage of FAL kits, a lot of people have turned to building an AK or two. It's kind of like methadone for a heroin addict. I'm sure that if more FAL kits turn up, there will be more FAL action and less talk about AKs but for now it's all we have. No sense in fighting it.

It could be worse, we could be talking about ARs.
