  1. thanks for the vid, wonder how this will translate for non converted saigas
  2. ive called classicarms 2 times and have gotten different answers. The first time i called on a friday, they said he was sold out and just sold his last one last night and will have back in stock by thursday. Then i call tuesday and they say they just sold their last one an hour ago and wont have them back in stock for 3 weeks?!?! Maybe they dont like the sound of my voice or something but their website never said out of stock and it still doesnt. I then called DDsRanch and talked to dean for a good 10 minutes trying to find a FFl near me. Ive placed my order and am just waiting to get it from
  3. sorry didn't ask. But it went so smooth that either they have crazy good awesome cs or know its a problem. Maybe poncho can ask when he calls.
  4. simply give them a call. ProMag Industries (800)438-2547 and let them know that it holds more than 10 rounds. They will get your info down and send you the envelope. Glad to help!
  5. hey guys great news, i just got off the phone with promag. They were very nice and all they needed was my name and adress. They said i will be getting a prepaid envelope in the mail to send the mag to them to either fix or replace. So im very happy with CS and feel at ease.
  6. hows the scope working for ya? any links to where you got it for that price?
  7. I also think you should get a bullet guide in there. The surefire mags can be used for saiga but you could have gotten 3 ak mags for the price
  8. What area do you live in? The cheapest people willing to transfer to CA are DDsRanch and Classic arms. Both are very nice and easy going.
  9. lol yes it holds 11 we unloaded then loaded it 3 times to make sure! also how does he disassemble it? and im not really 100% sure but from what ive seen handguns cannot hold more than 10 rounds also here.
  10. ohhh i see. that folding idea was one of the reasons i originally wanted a keltec.
  11. i like it. matches your other stuff. What do you hold in your bob? also if your bugging out how will you carry your rifle? Unless your going straight into a forest or something id say try to hide the rifle. Also for a update! I finally found a dealer willing to transfer. They are Fort courage Armory located in simi valley. I extremely recommend them. Tim(owner) is super nice and polite. He charges 50 for transfer + 25 Dros for the first three guns! That is the cheapest ive seen in my area, alot of the dealers listed on gunbroker are not updated so the seem to charge more than advertise.
  12. classic arms is out of stock, i called them yesterday and they gave me the bad news. Told me they would have them again on thursday-ish but probably not for the same price. Im guessing they will add 10$ or so. That would still be cheaper than any other place ive seen.
  13. hey guys thanks for all the advice, he emailed promag and is waiting for a reply. Also, he has not tried shooting it yet, he just loaded it up because he likes to have his mags fully ready to go. He did not "cram" it in either, he loaded it as usual until full, the last round did not feel tighter than normal and like i said we only noticed because of the 9 that were left.
  14. hey vinny did you ever get one of these?
  15. exactly im torn between what both of you are saying. The mag is a 10 rounder and sold as such but it does not actually say 10 rounds anywhere on them. To someone that does not know "those are the 10 rounders" and might check for maximum space and then fits in 11.... The only reason we found out is he was filling it with out counting from a 20 rnd box and when done only had 9 left. Has anyone else seen this with promag? he only bought one mag so we cant see if its common. I will try emailing them and see what options i have. thx
  16. hey guys my friend picked up a promag 10 rnd mag at a local gun show. when he filled it up it holds 11! now some of you might be thinking who cares its just 1 extra but we live in CA and anything over 10 is illegal unless you bought it preban. I know its meant to hold 10, but that 1 extra scares him and me. What should he do? trash it and forget about it? call promag? anyone else seen this before?
  17. thanks for for asking something i was gonna ask too
  18. ive emailed both of them and many others but no replies... they must be busy. Tomorrow ima sit here and call all of them one after another and get some real answers. dont worry guys when i find good stuff ill let you know my findings
  19. hey sound wave thank you very much for the info i just emailed everyone you told me to. Now my list of emailed people is 11 and called 4. hopefully ill get lucky. Im getting very frustrated but i know that it will pay off. Also on a side note, once i do get it what kind of documents should i carry with me? just in case? i KNOW i WILL get my hands on one so just planning ahead. Again thank you for all the replies.
  20. thanks but i went through that list and got down the numbers specifically by price and location. The ones that were cheap (50) aren't willing to do it. others that were in my area with higher fees still wouldn't do it. Yea that 100$ place was the only one willing to do it!... i guess ima end up driving 2 hours to the cold war shooters store. I just checked the site and the price online is less than what i saw at the show. Hopefully since i would be picking it up the out the door price would be cheaper. thanks again for the replies.
  21. ok update, So i went to the gun show on sat. i visited the cold war shooters table and finally got to hold on in my hands. they felt great and not as heavy as i expected. But then i saw the price...350 for the 20 and 370 for the 16. I asked for out the door and they said around 450+. i walked away very sad... also in my quest to finda fll willing to do transfer i found that people that can special order are charging upwards of 450 or charging 100$ for the transfer. one dealer conversation went like this: 1. hello, im calling to see if you have any saigas in stock? 2. no we dont they are ill
  22. hey guys thanks for the replies. im located in burbank, CA. I WILL be at the costa mesa show tomorrow! thanx for telling me what vendors to look for. i know ddsranch is having a sale right now, go to calguns, register, and look at the vendors forum. ill shoot them an email to get that list and make some calls. hopefully i find some good people at the show. www.calguns.net http://www.crossroadsgunshows.com/gunsched.htm hey duke if you plan on going ill be there on sat!
  23. oh no no i wasnt thinking of doing that for high cap mags. its just that saiga specific mags seem expensive compared to regular ak mags.
  24. i thought id add to give you some info on what i want to do with this rifle. I plan on leaving it in stock configuration, i dont want the extra hassles of having it look even more illegal. the only thing i would do is make it take regular ak mags. If i do this with out changing anythink else its still 100% legal right? no need to get some usa points? This will be my home defense/shtf gun.
