Didn't know that about the shotgun shell, pretty cool. You can also bend the legs around behind the hammer, crossed over each other, and a zip tie. Once installed, snip the zip, and let the legs fly.

​@@DragunBreathOh zip ties, I would of never figured that out. How do you install them??

@@Or3guns - just grab the spring legs with some needlenose, fold them back across the hammer face, crossing over each other to hold in place, the zip tie them. Easy peasy.

I wonder if doing this on a spindle sander would be a better idea. You could use both hands to hold the hammer, and have more exacting control on pressure applied.

Yup just did this to my mak 90. Always getting caught with the first knob with the bolt going backwards.

Your welcome, glad you liked it and could assist. :)

I don't think it's really as big of a deal as everyone makes it out to be. It's more of a cosmetic issue then function. I've never heard anyone say their bolt was sticking open when they were firing it. The only time it really sticks is when you ride the bolt carrier back or forwards. People just like to tinker with their guns. I know I do lol

I just put an alg akt in mine and now the bolt sticks terribly as in hangs up and needs smacked to return home, even WITH the alg recol spring. I also suspect that those pronounced humps on the hammer are pushing up on the bolt because now the charging handle also makes contact with the dust cover and is scratching the hell out of it when racking. I think I've come to the conclusion that bill's intent was to give plenty of material for an individual to remove from the hammer to ensure a proper and smooth end result with the varying models of ak's. I can say the trigger and reset are light years better than stock. I'm pretty confident that after doing this to the hammer, it's going to be fantastic👍🏻

Good luck! Hope it smooths out. :)

My ZPAP came in and hand cycling it is rougher than my WASR 10

*reminds himself to learn how to weld*

Added bayonet lugs with my welder. Little filing, and I now have a heavy pointy stick. You know, just in case 😂

Where can you get a $30 ALG trigger?

@@andygold well, at the time they were 35ish, I got it from ar15discounts, but now they are 65 and out of stock anyhow

Tapco triggers, ALG triggers etc, are not worth it and really unnecessary. I’ve been into AKs for about 14 years now and have a decent ak collection, and the stock triggers just have never bothered me: at least to the point where I absolutely felt I “had”to change it out unless it actually has to be replaced due to issues. I find a lot of people on the internet feel and sound like changing out their stock trigger is a “must” upgrade. Almost to the point where if they don’t change out the trigger asap, their world is going to end. On top of that, tapco and alg triggers have always tended to have bad effects on the bolt carrier. Which is why you end up having to do all this unnecessary modifying to prevent damage and unnecessary wear. Idk, I just never could see the whole obsession with changing out the stock triggers, only that people just want to shoot faster

That’s one way to get a full auto 😂

@@okiewind8403 nah youll get a hammer follow and a dead trigger.

@@R.Tafolla oh ok. I assumed it just wouldn’t catch and keep firing.

@@okiewind8403 u ll not listen the reset... Dead

The bolt carrier naturally has a natural gap/give to it prior to engaging and is no worry.

I cringe when people use grinding or cutting tools on material that isn't secured in a vise.

What am I missing? What do you mean by snake bite?

@@okiewind8403 when you get bit by the hammer springs snapping on your hand,you will have 2 little bloody holes that look just like snake 🐍 bites😛

@@dougshelton69 😂 oh ok. I’ve avoided that so far lol

@@okiewind8403 your Mr lucky....changed triggers alot and it still can happen...

Nothing in 5.56 is the best of anything; especially AKs in 5.56. 5.56 AKs, ak variants etc, is just an abomination

@jakeh6980 well based off your stupid remark then nothing is good for anything. 5.56 is a great defense round. Light weight, high powered and comes in plenty of options.

brandon doesnt know how to work on AKs

noone cares

Someone sounds salty they paid more for ( Russian ) probably came with canted sights and fucked up rivets 😂

@@TylerHaskiell-fs3mx Noone cares about some windbags definition of "ak looks"

Man.. lol

Kitchen counter required lol!

Not yet at least lol

Ak is banned in my place Canada and i still watch ak vids
