Anyone know if the top area on a Yugo 59/66 gas block can be safely welded closed? Not the gas port inside, but the opening on top for the shut-off valve
I'm tinkering with a build and would like to remove the shut off valve completely, but curious what options id have closing up the hole left behind.
Does the gas valve need to remain to keep the block functioning? If so, maybe instead leave valve in there & in the open/semi position, then just cut off the button and weld it front top side instead
Of course I'd file dwn the weld to the contours of the block and reblue to make it look decent
