AK Gas Block
Question:  I'm working over a Norinco Hunter and need to remove the gas block to install a rear sight block and lower handguard retainer. Without a press, can I safely heat the gas block and drive it off?

Thanks
JJ

Answer:  no, it's been done without fancy tools.. but it is very hard to do

I would not even give it a try, you'll ruin a perfectly good rifle IMO

The rear sight block is not just a part you switch out.. it's part of the trunion / barrel / receiver

sounds like a gunsmith job to me

Ted Marshall's reputation as the premier AK builder and AK gunsmith proceeds him in collectors circles.

Some of us go beyond the mere pleasure of shooting the AK47 and delve into the never ending quest to collect the accurate parts to eventually build the ultimate historical recreation of our favorite version of the AK47. When you get to that point you are paying more for an upper handguard than most people pay for entire rifles. You're traveling 2 days out of your way to visit a shop in a town that you heard might have the magazine pouch you need to hold the mags for that rifle.

    When you reach this point you look to just one person to build your AK, Ted Marshall
