I had thought about selling my single stack 101, but have decided to go ahead with the conversion. I have access to about any piece of equipment needed, so thats not a problem. Now, after talking with another member, this is what all I'll need to do the conversion correct? Grip and stock Tang Grip screw Receiver cover to replace POS one Also, I know I'll need to order a US made FCG to stay legal. I should NOT have to install a bullet guide correct? Does anyone have a template I could use when I mill out the mag opening? Right now about the only thing I could go on is my Mak-90. The muzzle break is pinned on, as it has two small pins on the underside, what are my options with replacing it(and how do I get it off once I punch out the two pins?)? I would also like to put a side mount on it, anyone have a template to help me along? Right now, here is my 101:

As a toolmaker, I would say you might need more than just a template. I'll have a look at my SA M-7 when I get home, but I think there might be more than just a straight square-to-the-bottom-of-the-reciever opening there. Could be wrong, though. I think there might be some angle cuts involved. You'll need 5 parts for a milled rifle, 4 if you keep the permanent muzzle device. A new furn. set is 3, so just one more part if you don't take the existing break off, or 2 more if you do. On a second note, don't Arsenal milled rifles have receivers made in the states? If so, the new furn. set would be all you would need if you don't remove the break. If you want to go all out and bring it up to no-ban military config, you'll need a new FSB and gas block, cleaning rod, and maybe handgaurd retainer. Those are a lot more work and most people simply don't bother. |
If it's perm, it's not a seperate part and does not count. |
