Put this zenitco rail on my Lads 105 but for the life of me I can't get the gas tubes locking pin to rotate and lock in place, it was a little tight to get the pin to move initially but going back is a solid no! Am I missing something ? I've lightly oiled both parts but nowp it won't budge! Other than beating the shit out of it with a lump ?  I am at a loss! On the up side that rail looks the dogs?

You may have to press down on the gas tube itself, I have the problem in the past, another the other point is to make sure the front part of the gas tube is fully push into the gas block port.  

Is the zenitco rail for the E&L series of AKs and not LCT/Cyma?

A slight miscommunication.  I mean is the zenitco rail you bought for the 105  specifically for E&L AKs?

As some manufactures make  them for different  brands of AKs.  E&L furniture specs are different from LCT.  So if you bought an LCT rail and put it on a your E&L that maybe a possible cause of your problem.

 
Yeh they are tight to start with but also as Sniper pointed out E&L and LCT arent really cross compatible due to receiver length differences
