I just started work on a pistol grip trigger conversion for my Saiga .308, and so far have a few questions:
1- As you see, the rivet holes weren't drilled out "perfectly," is this an issue for when I mount the new triggerguard?
2- What holes need to be filled in and what do you suggest I use to do that?
3- I did not drill out the "middle rivet" because I'm not reusing the factory triggerguard, but also, I can't seem to get the triggerguard and plate to separate from the receiver. It looks like there are two more rivets or welds of some sort (you see where I tried to drill them out, but failed because my bit got too worn), thing is, I didn't hear anything about these two welds/rivets anywhere in conversion tutorials/instructions, how do I separate this plate and triggerguard?
4- I have a Tapco stock and pistol grip that were on the rifle in its standard configuration, will both of these still work even with the forward triggerguard?
BTW, the kit I bought is the Deluxe Conversion kit from Dinzag Arms...
Thanks a lot for the help!
