Thanks for your answer Cobra...you seem to be right for the sight mounting on the dust cover...but anyway what you guys think about placing the ring on the place of the original rear sight ? Isn't it too far from the eye ? Or no problem ? Can somebody tell how big the hole must be ? I think about .200"....

I'm gonna use an AK style custom front sight for my Saiga-12...here nothing interesting...looks like all other sights you know. But i'm not sure what to do about the rear sight. I was thinking about putting a ghost ring sight, because of the faster target aquisition than the ordinary U-notch sight. And cause i'm kinda short on money I'm going to try to make one myself, we'll see what will happen I read somewhere that these rear sights must be close to the eye. So if I place the rear sight on the place where was the original one of the gun - will that be a problem ? Because then the ring wil

The thread i can turn using a CPU lathe. Hmm.. i'm not sure i can make the front sight only by using pictures, it needs to be made very sharply...it needs to be measured not just by a ruler, but using instruments like micrometers. I'll try to make one flash hider for you, and i will send it to you there (btw where do you live?) Then when you have a reson to believe me - maybe you can send me one ordinary elevated front sight to use it like a model, you will tell me what dimension you want me to change and then i'll make one sight for you. I'll send it to you and if you like it - i'll keep th

Yes, i live in Bulgaria and i can't find the flash hider here (even when we have the big Arsenal weapons plant - they do not produce it). And i can't buy it over the internet cause i have no credit card to pay. I decided to try makeing the most common hider cause i thought i can find easily the dimensions... And... yes i got it! I realised what means id and od in some time thinkin...it was cause my english is kinda bad. In my country the law prodibit selling weapon parts. Anyway i'll think about makeing one for Cobra 76 two...maybe i'll send you one. Maybe it will be cool if you send me th

Man, you are great, you even made a schematic for me. Thanks alot! But i just can't understand something - what means OD and ID ? For example - on the upper side you have written - 48 mm and than for the same dimension it is written below - 23 mm OD ? Please explain it to me ? Well, produceing weapon's parts and selling them without a license i illegal

Good to have more than one hider measured - so i can compare, this will help me make it more correct. Go people - measure your hiders, i'll highly appreciate your help. I can try makeing the elevated sight too, but i need to have one for example. Hmm to produce them i think i'll need a license, but anyways no prob to make one for myself.

Thank you very much McUZI. I'll be waiting for your assistance I'm going to make the hider which you can see here: http://www.saiga-12.com/images/Sight_bbl02.gif Hope you have the same one...or if it is different i'll need the pic too.

Hello people, I'm Saiga-12 owner from Bulgaria. I work in a machine factory where i have equipment i can use to make a flash hider. But i need the dimensions - the diameter of the holes - both the eleptical and the round ones, the height and the width (diameter) of the flash hider. Please measure your hiders and help me make my own one. Thank you in advance for your help!

Thank you guys for your answers

JesusCow, What is the exact model of the Cobra on the pics you've attached ? I'm from Bulgaria, maybe it's hard for you to believe(cause here is placed the "Arsenal" plant where they make AK wepons), but these kind of sights are hard to be found here. All i found is one EKP-1 Cobra, i don't know if this model is new or old, good or bad, maybe you can tell me... It is very expensive thing to buy - it cost at about $200 - it is not much money in USA, but this is my whole month salary here, thats why i'm in doubt weather to buy This Cobra or not... Thank for your openions

I'm going to buy one Cobra Red dot sight, but what do you ppl thing about them ? Is it good thing to have ? Thank you in advance for your answers

I have seen once drum magazine for 20 cartridges somewhere on the net.

I have used it in Big game hunting. I like this riffle

Welcome, I'm from Bulgaria, here we had 45 years of komunism, but at least we can buy automatik shotguns...i thought that the law here sucks, but now i see that in France it is worse I wish i could help you with blueprints, but i can't, hope Makc can do it.

I think(i'm almost sure) that not copression/decompression the spring causes wear, long time compressed will result the same - but it will take LONG time keeping the mag loaded.

yup i forgot

I wish i could buy it, even i can pay more for it, but i have no credit card(it is not very common here) :(

These guys really have no clue what do they write, they even don't know how to assemble an AK weapon correctly

Thanks for your answer Makc, you are really right, how cani pay you for this buffer, cause i have no credit card ? Tell me please what we can work out about getting me a recoil buffer. Take care

Makc, there is written that i have to use position "1" when fireing slugs ? Even when i use non magnum slugs i have to use "1" ? I have fired slugs only once, thats why i have no experience, but i used position "2" withno probs...is this wrong anyway ? Is it possible the gun not to reload the next shell cause the pressure is too low ? (using "1" for non magnum shells, but slugs) ?

I'll try the bronze brush. I think all the Siaga's have chrome covered bores, at least mine is, and hope that neither the bronze brush nor some kinda chemical will cause chrome fading...

People tell me please how to clear the thin lead layer which rests on the bore after shooting lots of shells (well not so many). Do you use some chemicals ? Or brass brush ?What is better ? Maybe both the chemicals and the brass brush can be harmfull for the bore...tell me about your experience.

Yup, jokes are cool, but hope next time i'll undertand it BTW mine russian isn't good also

Hahaha...it is really funny bro, i see what is the prob now I went a little angry on SaltPeter, but now - all is clear. Thanks for the pic, yup i know those jeeps.

Hey Makc, the delay isn't any prob buddy, i just began to think that nobody goona answer, that's why i was so impatient SaltPeter - as i've said above my english ain't very good, so i just dunno other verb describing the use of hummer on something, even if "to hummer" sounds maybe like "to smash" this was the only word i know. Of coarse i meant a very LIGHT "use of one LITTLE hummer" - you tell me the right verb. Anyway Makc understood what i mean, and i'm satisfied.
