...am I missing something?

Order a new gas tube and pop it on. There's a lever on the front trunnion that lets you just remove it when you flip it. Make sure the piston's out first.

I have a feeling he’s talking about a FSB and gas block (i.e. debanning).

..oh.

Just hit it with a hammer, OP. It's an AK.

ETA: I'm only partly kidding. A hammer and a punch set are probably all you need to remove whatever ails ya. It's the same thing a gunsmith would do.

I’d also rather have a gunsmith mess with anything barrel or gas block related. But since OP quietly edited his post without further comment or elaboration, I’ve lost interest in this thread

Call MacPherson in Brentwood NH. They specialize in AKs and it’s drivable from central MA.
