Steel 30 RD Bulgarian mags from aimsurplus
bigsal replied to opto_isolator's topic in Saiga 7.62 X 39
That's not true. They're the exact same thickness; both are 0.028". IMO, the only advantage the surplus mags have over the Bulgarians is the design of the feed lip. Otherwise, the two are almost identical. Just going off the info here: http://www.theakforu...hp?f=9&t=147546 and here: http://www.theakforu...hp?f=9&t=135787 Ill buy one and test the thickness myself while posting pictures, that way we can avoid confusion. I just measured both with a set of digital calipers. Also, the Bulgarians also seem to have stronger feed pressure (probably because the spring -

The FN SCAR 17 7.62x51mm baby
bigsal replied to GREYLUPO's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
have you thought about dropping $469 and buying the 22lr trainer clone that ISSC puts out? Supposedly its built really close to the real thing unlike the GSG crap that was floating around out there. Someone just pointed to this video on another forum where the trainer gets run over by an SUV and lives to shoot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lsiiz_STTAM Anyway it may be worth the purchase. -
.308 ver 21 thumbhole. Good deal?
bigsal replied to storm6490's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
That is a good deal, just make sure the v21's wood is not all beat to hell. Typically used items tend to be well worn, and you may want to make sure its free of rust before buying..... that being said $500 is a good deal! -

I cut the tang and now want a regular stock. Options?

^This is the best advice. Just drill out the rear trunnion that you butchered and put in a new one. Remember: Friends dont let friends install ACE stocks. -
Is a dragunov stock on a 16 inch AK retarded?
bigsal replied to rocinante's topic in Saiga 7.62 X 39
Exactly what function is being compromised with the PSL-style stock? It has the following characteristics which compromise function: -Weight -Lack of ability for thumb to create a full seal -Lack of compartment for cleaning kit -Awkward placement of second finger (the one under the trigger finger sits to far away from the trigger on Romanian thumbhole stocks) There are probably a lot of other reasons, but I can think of them off the top of my head. -

You are welcome, they look minty! You know, I have about 4 magazines that I use for the range and the rest I keep in storage. I would keep those beauties in storage! shoot the ugly ones....

And some people need to learn the difference between Auctioning and Haggling... Here, I'll make it easy for you: Auction: An auction is a process of buying and selling goods or services by offering them up for bid, taking bids, and then selling the item to the highest bidder. Haggle: Bargaining or haggling is a type of negotiation in which the buyer and seller of a good or service dispute the price which will be paid and the exact nature of the transaction that will take place, and eventually come to an agreement ^This is correct. There is nothing in the rules against m

I will yield to your real world experience bro, but a 16" barrel would be much more consistent in reaching out beyond 100m as I originally stated. That is unless the laws of physics are temporaraly suspended around Krinkovs..... (but seriously, no disrespect intended, I dont doubt you are getting those results)

...there are two sides to that coin SOPMOD. The Palestinians would argue that there is a foreign occupation force sitting on their land preventing them from returning... Not saying ether side is closer to the mark than the other, just putting it out there that there are two sides to the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. Lets hope these guys don't get slaughtered.

Form follows function. DO not add retardasity at the expense of function.... -
Sorry, I think you misunderstood my post. The welds are the only selling point, I dont want it to sound like I was shitting on the weld, only differentiating between two commercial magazines. obviously a weld trumps glue!!!! let me know if you have any other questions!
