SKS Tapco gastube/handguard combo

Afraid Fab's sold out. I know because I went looking after just about buggering up the gas tube on my Siminov trying to pound out the pin attaching the wooden upper to fit the new Tapco upper . The wodden upper did not survive.
Well after several drill bits and punches, hours of tweaking the tube so the piston would not bind and several ounces of JB Weld I have a very solid, tight gas tube to fit a red dot. Moral of the story, purchase the completed tube OR very carefully drill out the pin to attach the new upper on the gas new tube.

This guy has one left if you're interested in converting back to original configuration. I bought one as a spare.
