It will be a pain in the ass to get the threaded barrel and bayonet lug.
I am not messing with lugs on any of my rifles. |

Explain why it will be a pain, won't they have an attachment to the barrel or soemthing to make it attach?

Most SAR-1 barrels can easily be threaded. Bayo lug requires front sight base replacement.

It may be easier just to replace the barrel with a preban barrel. Find out the diameter of your barrel where it's pressed into the trunnion. Then go hit all the websites that sell AK parts (Sarco, Inter Ordnance, Gun Parts Corp, etc. etc.) and you will probably be able to source a barrel. Send the weapon to a gunsmith and have him change the barrel for you. If you try and do it yourself, you run into headspacing issues and need a set of go / no go gauges.

I work on AK's and would vastly prefer to thread it (~$10. + flash hider) and change a front site base (~$25. +site & detent assembly) than change a barrel.
(Prices are rough estimates for discussion purposes.) |

I personaly like the stripped down racing version. No bayo & no flash hider.

I'm not messing with either of my SARs (1 & 2). But I do need to get the front sight on my SAR-2 straightened out

On both my SAR-1 and WASR-10 the holder for the cleaning rod under the barrel acts as the bayo lug. I can put my E. German bayonet on both and they work fine. But, I don't of coarse

It is the gas chamber that needs replacing not the FSB right?
The lug on the Sar 1 is on the gas chamber. I plan getting a new gas chamber, then threading the barrel for the slant brake. Now I have to get up and go lookhref=Gas block |

 I have swapped both. FSB not a big deal but gas block is double the work not to mention gas port alignment issues. |

both you need to press the FSB off then press the gas block off put the new gas block with bayonet lug on and align gas hole and press FSB with detent pin and spring for brake back on. then thread the barrel with a threading kit and put your choice of muzzle brakes/flash hiders/compentators/cans.
so both hehe I sadi gas hole
