VZ-58s and more...FAQs are Post 1

[suprathepeg]

Cranky or what?

No its just that there's so much good info here but its damn near impossible to find any of it. It should be turned into a FAQ and the pics moved to a 58 thread in the picture section. Its not in insult just calling it as I see it.

OK. I try to put the most common asked stuff in the FAQs. I think I did a decent job. The picture stuff is to promote the 58 culture. The Libs want us to "go away" and so I consider it as advertising. We've got new 58 owners as a result of this thread, or so I assume.

If I missed something, please let me know what...

I have asked for semi 59s.

And what did they say? sooooooooo how do we go about bribing/begging Marstar to bring these in

 

[Deckard]

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Ok, here's a new one. Does anyone know the dimensions of the 58's barrel in its entirety? Any pictures/specs out there?

Great Hairy Ned On The Mountaintop. Were these pics taken in Canada? Yummy.

 

[Norseman]

I've been asked for closeup photos of the side mount scope set up. Please people write something up detailing how it is done and provide some photos. I'll FAQ it.

Anyone ever have a problem with the pin that holds a muzzle brake in? I took off my muzzle brake to wash it, and when I pushed the pin in to take the brake out the pin stayed pushed in. Anyone have a tip to pull it out somehow?

 

[Deckard]

Bang on it? It should be spring loaded.

No luck with that, it doesnt move and it's recessed in.

 

[Deckard]

It may be held by grease. I'm guessing, but heat it up to expand? I'm not sure.

Drive the cross pin out and flood the hole with some WD40. Then take a piece of stiff wire and try to push it out through the cross pin hole.
