Contact a guy by the name of wjm. He is on here and several other gun boards. He rents the tool that you need for around $15-$20. I used his threading kit to thread my first SAR and it worked great.

Thanks Dale, I'll give this guy another try, I've PM'd him in the past and never got a reply :( Oh well, just notched the selector on mine so now I can hold the bolt back :)

So next time we shoot together I won't have to wonder what in the hell that piece of yellow plastic that went flying past me was?

Lol, That was pretty funny!

And how does this notching the selector work? Notching the selector "arm" itself to catch the bolt handle from traveling forward?

HA HA Yeah I didn't know what that was either, yeah I used my dremel and a cutting disk to cut a notch into the selector like this AK BOLT HOLD OPEN
