Hi I bought a Chinese SKS lately and just got my Tapco stock. I'm trying to remove the wooden stock and the gas tube cover but I just cant. In the process I am scratching and breaking the wood and swearing more and more.
I read that to remove the receiver you have to remove all components and then just pull out the receiver. Mine wont move at all. Do I have to remove the big black screw?
Also Im trying to remove the gas tube cover. The small pin that retains everything wont budge. I tried to hammer it out on both sides, Im actually damaging the pin instead of pushing it.
I really need some help, the SKS stripping thread did not help much.
