Minor fitting may be required depending on your model.
1. If the tube is slighlyt too long to fit all the way down and drop into the slot on the receiver end, remove a small amount of metal from the front of the tube to shorten it slighlty, until it will drop into place.

If the latch will NOT rotate freely into the locked down position, remove a small amount of metal at a time from the top of the bracket on the tube where the latch should rotate freely.

2 of 5 Does not fit SAM7SF August 31, 2024
Reviewer: Gilbert Tanap from Carson, CA United States  
This gas tube is nicely made, but it's too big for the SAM7SF.  Also it is slightly wider in diameter and quite different in configuration than the SAM7SF gas tube.  You are better off just buying from the original manufacturer to replace your gas tube.  The CAROLINA AK Gas Tube will require skilled gunsmithing to correctly fit your AK.  Again better to buy from the original manufacturer to get a Gas Tube that better fits your AK.

5 of 5 Needs fitting April 19, 2024
Reviewer: Ruben Trujillo from Brighton, CO United States  
I was able to get it to work nicely with my saiga 308.  Used the same file for all the fitting.   It was too wide at the rear (had to thin it out), too long (shortened the front a bit),  the real pain was matching the angle for the lever.  All in all it really wasn't that hard and when it comes to fitting things together being a bit too big to start with is a good thing.

5 of 5 AK GAS TUBE March 19, 2024
Reviewer: Christopher H from United States  
As always, CSS has fast and quality shipping, I've gotten quite a few different products and I've always been happy with their service. The gas tube fits a little snug on my rifle but other than that it's great.
