my follower does a nose dive on empty when the bcg comes forward after the last shot...

anyone know of a fix?

That is common problem, I descussed how to fix that issue, welding to follower required

You'll eventually just learn to ignore Hack as he is very etiquette challenged.

turbothis on AKFORUM is currently working on a US made follower for the M76 to resolve the tilt issue. Maybe a cure in the works,.

thanks!... since, I have learned...

someone said they eliminated the bho portion by perhaps camfering the bolt?...or maybe grinding the follower away. not sure...but it was a "fix"

Hacker says he tig welded....

my gunny says adding to the follower so it cant tilt forward....

another guy says he just fixes the follower after the bolt jams it into the bottom of the mag... "jeez, no thanks"

my thought is; is the follower strong enough to take the bolt, long term, if the tilting action is resolved?

if so, perhaps an anglle adjustment where the follwer meets the magazine and begins it's downward plunge after the bolt hits it....fix attempt should be tried...

what the hell were the yugo nauts thinking when they designed this....?



and why....ahh fck it.....mom says its bed time

Some very well used Yugo M70 mags (follower holds the bolt) will nosedive as a result of what I suspect is a weakened mag spring that won't stand up to the force of the bolt face hitting the back of the follower.

I'm not familiar with the innards of the M76 mag but is there a way to put a spacer in the bottom of the mag thick enough to compress the spring a bit (and thereby "strengthen" it) but not so thich as to cut the capacity down to 9 rounds?

Just a thought.

So what are you trying to say? That today's education in america is so much better? What are they teaching kids in school here these days? How to praise Obama? The "barack husain obama hm hm hm hm" song.

The commissioner of New Jersey's Department of Education ordered a review on Friday following the posting of a YouTube video depicting school children singing the praises of President Obama.

There's a general discussion board. Keep that crap there, please. This is a technical forum.

Don't be a douche.

For all of you people who get high and do drugs all day long that your brain is fried by now and can't even use a little comon sense to fix that issue with magz. Here it is:

I don’t have any personal beef with you – but do you have any realization of how arrogant and insulting you come off in your comments, fixes, advice, or whatever?

Well of course you do, and that’s probably a motivating factor for you.

I’m going to refrain from making any negative reference to you in this post out of a sincere effort to appeal to your sense of etiquette and logic.

No matter “what you know or may have learned”, you devalue all that you say by being insulting in your posts and nature.

Why would anyone listen to or consider such comments? The attitude you display suggests that you are an adversary and any information you post (factual or otherwise) should be ignored.

I’ll just leave it at that – because who you are or choose to be is up to you. If you come here and preface all of your posts with suggestions that somehow “everyone is inferior to you” – then you’re going to get a lot of verbal “kicks in the teeth”.

I’m kind of an asshole myself – but I’ve always tried to assist others here, even when a question may have been redundant.

Ya know, if you’re *REALLY* that good – then let the value and content of your posts speak for you, and you will become recognized for the generosity of your knowledge. Acting the “jerk” will gain you nothing…
