Danner but have to be stitch downs so you can have them resoled. If the soles to stitch on, they're imported and nowhere near as good.

That'd be great for shotgun Jousting!

OMG someone mistakenly called a receiver a lower!!! OMG OMG OMG

I've been on the net since 1994 and that was the most polite, yet hardest smack down I've ever witnessed!!! Well played

holy shit that's a big snake! Any idea how old it was?

That's just a new slug, but the brass was from the shot that took the hog. My uncle said he may go over the area with a metal detector to look for the slug. That'd be way cool to have but we had too much other stuff going on to find it this time.

You got that right, espescially knowing I can't get another vacation day until well into 2014, I need to hang onto this one for a while!! I went to things remembered today and had a plaque made for my mount, I'll edit this post with a pic soon. eta finished mount. I'm glad you guys enjoyed the thread, cause I 1st thought nobody would care. (negative thinker)

The bottom cutters (top ones are tusks, the cutters are consistently being sharpened by rubbing on the tusks (believe me, this things are sharp too!!are about 5 inches long, but they're like icebergs, most of it runs into the jawbone which is what makes them so tough. Measuring outside the gum line they're prolly only 2" We had some corn out and a brake light (red light doesn't spook game) mounted to a tree with a wire running into the stand where we could turn it on and off (about 30yds out and elevated about 8ft, There was biblical rain the day before, so we think most of the animals wen

I've posted pics of this shottie before and the groups it's held with the RS mount and Aimpoint. It always did well on paper, this week I got the chance to take it out hog hunting in NE Tx. The only thing I'm sad to report is that we had no scale and no way to weigh the boar I took. It looked big to me and my family who's land I was on and the 1st thing the guy at the processor said when we lifted the tarp was "damn, that's a big boar"! I know there's bigger ones out there, this is just my 1st time out in the field with my S12 and the biggest game I've ever taken. I wish I'd had everything in

That's good, I was hoping that was the case, but having never seen one, ya never know. congrats on your acquisition

I hope that this was a mistake in your understandable excitement and in actuality the rear sight block is welded to the front trunnion. Please post a pic if you would. Thanks

I think you could sell the receiver....it would just have to go through an FFL like a firearm....am I wrong??? That is correct

I thought I remembered reading those were 4rd mags, I was hoping it was a misprint

sorry for saying what I would do didn't mean to offend you, I was more thinking aloud than trying to make decisions for you. Sorry again if you were so offended.

Worst case scenario, a good TIG welder could fix that. Don't part it out over that.

There still isn't much of a market out there to judge from (sellers market) because the main way they come up for sale is if someone FUBAR's their gun and parts it out. If it were me, I'd post it up for what I got it for and pass it on to an enthusiast.

would you mind posting a pic of the underside of it (both the outside and inside of the mag well and the locking section of a modified mag? If you would, it'd be greatly appreciated

I know what you're saying is true, but it just seems like there's such a big gap in a wide open market for an 8rd 12ga mag, only speaking for myself, I can't bring myself to use one of the surefire mags, they're just too hokey looking. The factory 8rd mags, even ready and willing to pay $180-$200 for a MAGAZINE, it's hard to find someone to hand my money to! The looks you get when you tell someone a magazine costs that much.... From a business perspective I can see why you'd make the 8rd 20ga mags 1st, but from a gun enthusiast perspective I can't. Like the Vepr .308's they're cool guns,

After reading that, I sound like a new AK owner talking about how when he cycles the action by hand it can stick open on the hammer, but when he lets it loose it slams home fine.... Be that as it may, that wasn't supposed to be the case! I do think that the extractor could open and close or go up and down that ramp a little smoother, but I wouldn't wanna compromise it's grip. So the question is, is it possible to do so?

My Saigas action has been massaged to be smooth like butter and it runs 99% of the time even on the lowest of loads. Although my intention isn't really to make it run 100% on light loads, it's just how it's going by getting everything else right being as it was a 4 port from the factory. As a point of interest the rear trunnion barely has the finish discolored from the bolt kissing it. Anyway the action is really really smooth with the exception of when the extractor moves in and out of place. I polished the ramps on both the extractor and the bbl and I also lightly filed the slot in

Do the vepr .308's have a following as big as the Saiga 12? I did a quick search but got this >>Server not found Firefox can't find the server at www.vepr308.com. * Check the address for typing errors such as ww.example.com instead of www.example.com * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.<< I also did a google search for a vepr .308 forum, but didn't come

DaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuMMMMM!!!!! That is one hot S12! Def in my top 5 favorites. If that isn't an awesome advertisement for TAC47, I don't know what it is. It's making me rethink everything I've done/am doing! I'm not 100% sold on the trigger guard only because it looks less traditional, all the billet on any type of AK reminds me of the "lipstick on a pig" statement. I love Saigas, this piece almost looks too nice for a Saiga. I'm looking forward into seeing these in action and learning more about them. With any luck, I'll be putting some lipstick on my pigs! lol

Oh MAN you don't know what you're missing!! lol (walmarts being horrible people magnets)

I got rifle like accuracy (to me anyway) at 100yds with an aimpoint in horses mount. I thought I posted it in a build thread, but I can't find it, might as well share it here. This was with regular run of the mill Remington sluggers, I believe it has more to do with the sights than anything. I believe the Russian equivalent would do just as well. wtf the last image I posted was upside down, this one is sideways..... (both fine on my macbook and phone) btw, how cool is that that one round went through the eye socket, and the target has the eyeball laying on the ground! haha

AMEN!!! Most Saiga owners have alot of cash wrapped up in thier guns.....They cant just take them from you can they? No they won't. I went through this with my Street Sweeper. The original import study was done in 1989. The reclassification became official on Feb 28th, 1994. They gave until May 2001 to register your shotgun, tax exempt - over 7 years. If the Saiga goes down the same way, you will get a letter in the mail something to this effect: No CLEO is needed, just the photo and the fingerprint cards. Pay attention to this box: This is
