How do you install a tension spring on a gas tube? I ordered a few of these from kvar:

A real AK-74 gas tube is notched for it. Installing on a AK-47/AKM gas tube can require some "persuasion" but will fit.

took one off today to paint the rifle with alumahyde(looks prety good at the moment hanging in the gun room) and was worried about getting it back on so I had to try before painting :smile:
I just hooked it on the bottom and pushed firmly on the curved sides with my thumbs and it popped right back on,easier than removing it .
