Cut off the lower tang with a dremel or drill out the rivets and take it off in one piece so it can be replaced later. It just bolts in the receiver and the upper tang is screwed into the block. It's a simple thing, no need to go and pay someone to do it ...
P.S. The one in your picture is for a "cut-the-tang" type for a stamped receiver, the milled will have a 1 1/2 inch block sticking out ... |

Thanks man!
I can all ways get good help here on the dark side. |

Hey Apache659 , what about the Milled / internal version? On this website it shows milled / universal or Milled / internal .
www.blackjackbuffers.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=67&products_id=395 Would the Milled / internal version not have the block sticking out? Thanks. |

I just installed an Ace stock on my Arsenal SM-7 Carbine and it was very easy. For the milled Arsenal there are two tangs, and both need to be cut. Ace has a new internal receiver block that was not shown on their website (at least as of last week). It is a very slick little block that is perfectly contoured to fit the inside of the receiver once the tangs are removed. In fact it fits so snugly that I thought I might have to remove some material from it until I jiggled it a little more and then it slipped right in. With the Arsenal carbine there is a trapezoidal projection at the base of the top tang which has a corresponding shape in the internal receiver block. When cutting this tang with a hacksaw or Dremel just dont cut too close to the projection- line it up and then hand file it a little at a time until it fits.
I was hesitant to take a hacksaw to my new rifle but like I said, it was very easy and the result is very satisfying. Jim |

I have a SA M5 that I would like to install that in but I don't see how it installs. Do you have to drill a hole on each side of the reciever so the screws on each side of the ACE block can secure the block? Sounds a little scarry!
|
|
It bolts through the center, the screw holes on the sides are for sling swivels ...

Hey Apache659 I put an order in for the stock kit with the Milled / internal block , from that website
www.blackjackbuffers.com/ . I'll update when it gets here and post some pics of befor and after when I get the time. |
|
Cool, my brother MontanaVet has an order in for another SA M-5S and all the goodies so I'll be doing his unless I get mine first. This is cool because I was about to chop down one of the full size blocks to see if I could make one of these. I was going to do it this weekend, LOL. I'm glad we all got into this discussion, it saved me from some unnecessary trial and error ...
Now if I could just sell my Kobra to fund a real Galil stock to mate to the block I'd be happy ... |

Opps! it posted two times. website going crazy. |
|
Nice job, "Basket!" Wow, that turned out nice. I should hire you to do mine! I think I want to get a side-folder for my Arsenal Carbine. The ACE stock looks great! Bud |
|
|
So all you had to do was remove both the upper and lower tangs? What else was involved?
Bud |
|
Ok, I don't understand completly what you need to do to install the folder. I own an SLR-101 so I'm pretty interested on it!
First you cut both tangs, I get that much. But afterwards what do you need to do to install the folder? How does the "receiver block" attach to the receiver? And is the ACE folder rigid, in other words, can you bash something with it and it will not break? I just want something durable. Thx! |
|
I don't have a milled AK receiver here....Are you guys hacking off parts of you receiver to install a stock or just a trunnion?
|
|
Sweet ...
I have to wait a week or so to do mine ...
|

|
Thanks Apache, looks like installing the side folding stock is not all that hard, just cutting the tangs and thats it!
|
|
Want to move this back up. Good information here that I think others would want to know about.
Regards, Bud |
|
Hey basketcase , what is the length of your ACE folder (they offer three lengths)?
|
|
Hi sorry for not seeing this , the stock is S (8.5). |
