Ordered my conversion kit, now what?

[Kelster1574]

I just ordered a Saiga conversion kit from CSS. Now what? Is there any tips or tricks I need to know? On a scale from 1 to 10 what am I looking at as far as difficulty? (been searching the forums and you tube, some good stuff....and a bunch of crap)

Just follow the videos CSS has on their site. Should take you about an hour to do a basic conversion.

As mentioned watch the CSS videos. I would also suggest preparing a nice uncluttered bench/workspace, gathering all tools you will need and a block of time ( 2-3 hours) to get it done without feeling hurried. Have the videos accessible from your bench so you can reference back while doing the work.

If you do above and have good mechanical skills it will be a fun time, so fun you may take it apart and do it again .

They ship fast too... I ordered my kit last Thursday and received it Monday morning.

Not sure when I'm going to do it though.

CSS has video on YouTube also watch thoses and buy tools you'll need (like drill bits, dermal, etc.)

Get a good 3/16" drill bit. Take your time. You can dooit!

Oh yeah, read the MUKAK thread on paint two posts down.

In the middle of my conversion....it's midnight and I am at the point of grinding down the tang to fit the mounting block so my ACE stock will fit.......guess I better wait until tomorrow......just wish I would have realized it before I beat the plastic covers into the empty holes.....guess I need those for the mounting block....
