masterduckmaster Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 hi, recently bought the techstar side saddle, but stuck at the snap ring part Anyone has any experience ? tried just about everything short of cuting it in trying to remove it ( twisting, rotating).... Thanks for the help! Quote
Sukhoi_fan Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 You will need some snap ring pliers, with those it will be a piece of cake. I bought a pair at bLowe's, made by Channelock, they have different size tips and do both inside and outside snap rings by changing a lever position. Quote

StrangerDanger Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Be very careful when installing the tacstar. It will squeeze the receiver if you tighten it too much and will cause the bolt carrier to bind when cycling to the rear. So your goal is to find a medium where it won't squeeze but won't shake loose. Good luck. I scrapped mine and went with the SideArmor unit. Quote
