    direct conversions: gas trap to gas port

    Scott, you have a nice looking rifle but I would change the gas cylinder, but thats your choice and your rifle.

    Here are some photos of a rifle that I worked on as to represent a direct conversion, I had a good start already, just had to finish it.
