FP Retaining Pin Removal Tool.......With Video!
« on: June 21, 2010, 08:23:35 PM »
Stop pounding on your bolt with a hammer!  :lol:

By popular demand I have created an easier method to remove the SKS FP retaining pin.

All it requires is the front sight tool that most of you are familiar with, and a new 10mm X 1.00 pitch bolt that needs to be turned down at the tip approximately .35 back and .135 to .140 around. This will enable the retaining pin to stay in the bolt, but the FP & extractor can come off.

The 10mm X 1.00 pitch bolt was not easy at all to find as its a real odd-ball.

I will probably post them for sale, minus the sight tool.

Please click on the picture to start the video...

Make one that will take the ferrule pin out too, and charge $5 plus shipping!

I'd buy it, and I have a Lathe!

Your idea? Please provide a link as I don't remember  :? .....I do remember you mentioning making a tool for this....just don't remember you saying I should use a front sight tool.
Nothing was modified on the sight tool.

This was done by hand because I dont have access to a lathe any more  :evil:......and the bolt was $2.00 for just one of them.

Well whoever thought of the idea nice work.
MR CR, if you did that without a lathe, I tip my hat to you sir. (If I was wearing a hat anyway.)

I can get the screws for you in bulk, but I'm sure you can too. You can get them for about $.25 each in bags of 100.

You might even be able to get them in black oxide, so they would be black, then heat and dip the end after to harden and turn it black too.

Great job.
