Hello,
I am trying to install a bullet guide in my Saiga x39. I drilled a hole though the trunion eaisly enough but had less luck with the tap.
I need to run a 6-32 tap though the trunion. The problem I am having is getting the tap to start tapping.
If I just turn the tap nothing happens. If I turn the tap and push down a little nothing happens. If I turn the tap and push down a little harder nothing happens. If I turn the tap and push down a little harder nothing happens......and then the tap breaks.
I used oil and turned clockwise. I have a new tap on order from Snap-On.
Any tips, hints or ideas? The Saiga 12 fourm seems to have come up dry.
