Do you have a pic of an unmodified mag so I can see the difference. Where on the mag did you weld the lip? I can't seem to tell from the picture. thanks

Thanks for the feedback guys. Are these converstions any good? http://ak-103.com/rifles/103.html Their conversion costs something like $585 (rifle included) As far as hunting purposes go. I heard the the 7.62 x39 is accurate out to about 200 yards. What type of MOA accuracy can I expect?

This is a big decision for me. I would like to get some other opinions on it. I can't decide if I should buy an already converted saiga 7.62 http://www.classicarms.us/ or a standard saiga 7.62 with wood furniture http://www.gilbertsguns.com/Rifles/Saiga/S...Thumbhole+Rifle This will be my first centerfire rifle purchase. I am looking to take the rifle into the woods for deer hunting season as well as keep it in my residence for self defense purposes. I live in NY State so in order to use a mag that hold greater that 10 I am going to need to go with a converted saiga. The

Thanks Sorry about the duplicate post. My browser hung and I did not think the 1st post went through. http://ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=8&f=9&t=307707 This is organizes the information really well.

I'm looking at a Saiga 7.62 and I want to have it converted to use cheaper AKM preban mags. I need advice or where to look if it is legal to use AKM Preban Mags (which I'm sure ARE legal) on a converted saiga. What I have heard is that the conversion IS legal provided a few US made parts are installed to replace foreign parts. Can some point me to some legal resources regarding this? I live outside of NY City so I am talking about New York State.

That you for the reply. I currently have a shotgun with a rifled barrel. According to Hornady the sabots I bought can reach out to 150 yards. (I haven't tested it yet) https://www.hornady.com/shop/?ps_session=ab...4e3d35d6bc0ec9e I was looking to get a saiga that can reach out further than this.

Ok, so with $$ being a factor would the 7.62 x 39 humanely kill a deer at 200-300 yards? A box of 500 rounds of .308 currently costs more than the rifle at $500. I was thinking if 7.62 works I would be able to practice more. I have very little experience shooting centerfire rifles. I've shot around 30 rounds or 30-06 out of a garand and thats about it.

I need help choosing between the Saiga in .308 and 7.62. I wanted to be able to take the Rifle deer hunting and accurately shoot further than 100 yards. Does anyone know the different in accuracy between the two rifles? Should I be looking at a different rifle other than a saiga to shoot 200-300 yards? Also I would like the ability to legally use a high capacity magazine in my saiga. I live in NY so that would limit me to magazines that are manufactured before the AWB of 1994 went into effect. I will not be taking the high-cap mag into the woods hunting as it is not legal. Al
