I am trying to install a muzzle brake on my MAK90, it is the pin on kind. But I can get the pin to budge out of the front sight post. What is the best way to get that pin out without damaging my rifle; i.e., barrel? Thanks |

You need a hammer and a punch. It was a pain in the butt when I did it to mine. Make sure the rifle is very secure and doesn't move when you are pounding on the front sight pin. This link might help you www.frankbachman.com/MAK90/mak-90_muzzle_brake.htm |

I had a heck of a time getting the two front sight block pins out of the last Romanian that I did! I tried the punch and hammer method. No go. I tried to drill them partially out, then re used the punch and hammer method. No go. (After I got permission from the owner of the rifle), I sectioned the front sight where the pins go through then I press the front sight block off as usual. Needless to say, the old front sight was trashed. Good Luck! One Rusty Nut. |
