SOLD OUT: TYPE 81 LMG Shipment 3.

[GTNgo]

E-mail them and let them know. The bolt has a stake in it, making removal extremely difficult. They will send you a new grip and new bolt with no stake, just have to cut the old grip and bolt off with a dremel or sawzall. Took me 2 minutes to get it off and install the new one.

Damn! Cutting off a pistol grip on a brand new gun... hot damn..... yeah I emailed them. Are there instructions on how to do it? Like do I literally have to cut off the grip to remove the stake bolt? Any videos?

No instructions or video...just take the dust cover off, take the guts out etc. Then literally cut the grip and bolt in half, pull the bolt out from the top and throw it all away. Install new grip and bolt as usual. Take note of the orientation of the threaded nut so you don't get it backwards when you put the new one on. It's easier than it sounds, any problems just PM me.

^from the place you mention. but internal upper wheel cut-out for 5 rounds, rest of internal wheel is flat and not cut-out.

So it’s the same as the drums offered here?

Sweet! Thanks man! Just waiting on tactical imports to reply.

Are you guys sure you can’t just crank the nut tighter? That’s how I fixed a lose pistol grip on a type 81 folder.

Very surprised tactical imports still has some in stock. But also everyone seems to have bought them just to sell them right away haha

[armilaria]

Can someone explain the pistol grip issue. I can’t budge mine. What is stake in the bolt mean?

Thanks.
