  3. What brands of ammo?

    in Saiga-12

    Posted

    Just wanted to ask what brands of high brass ammo will work in a MD 20 mag? I bought some Royal with cheese buck shot (2 3/4) and it was to long it was my own fault for not popping it out of the box and looking to see if it was rolled on the end :/ but where I live there is no deals on shotty ammo so if I want to get bulk I have to run to Mr internet. I'm looking for some brands I can buy in bulk that wont bust the bank.

    Thank you for your help and time guys, oh and i've been trying to use the Search function but I keep getting error messages..

  8. AUTO PLUG TAC 47 T.A.R.G.E.T

    Can I still get one of these plugs??

     

    Yup. but it's now $45.95. its a damn good product IMHO.

    Epic win! can some body pleeease gimmie a link? I tried going to their web site but it seems to have gown down. Tac hasn't gone out O business have they? :(

    Also any one have any idea how many rounds these plugs are good for? is it some thing that needs to be replaced after X amount of rounds? Just wondering if I should buy more then one :)

     

     

     

     

    You won't need another one. I've had mine for thousands of rounds, and the screw won't back out if you loctite it down (a dab of blue loctite goes a looooong way). Only ever readjusted it twice, and that was to see if there were any changes in the plug's performance, and there were none. The plug really does pay for itself. I usually shoot cheap birdshot for 'drum-dumps' and throw in some buckshot loads and slugs to blow up water jugs/fruits/old laptops - having that convenience of "set and forget" is really, really nice. Tac47 advises against it, but I've thrown some 3" shells in there - did a few mag dumps. In fact, when I got the Autoplug, the very first shells I put through the Saiga were 3" 000's. I'd probably shoot more magnum loads if I weren't spending $ on other ammo, too, so I almost never shoot 3". Oh well :)

     

     

     

    Now, YMMV, but this is something to consider. I set my Autoplug up around the Winchester Universal trash and Federal bulkpacks at Walmart. Those are 3 Dram loads to my knowledge. I tried to set mine up around the even shittier Winchester "Super Target" 2 3/4 Dram shells, but I had to set the screw so far into the plug It wasn't worth it. The stock plug on setting '2' will cycle the 2 3/4 Dram stuff no problem. I say hands down the lightest loads you should put through it are the Winchester and Federal bulkpacks from Walmart. Again, ymmv.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Bottom Line: You won't need to replace the Autoplug or its guts. The plug is as tough as the gun itself. :up:

    Awesome thanks for the reply Bullensmash I can't wait to get it.

    How long did it take for y'alls orders to get filled?

  12. Modification to repair FTE issues on Saigas with blocked gas ports

    in Saiga-12

    Posted

    i have blocked ports on my S12 but I can not get the first retaining pin out the one that holds the gas regulator locking pin I can clearly see it can only go in or out one way so I'm doing that right but no matter much much I hammer on the little sucker it will not move just refuses to budge all most like its been welded in.

    Can any one please give me any hints on how i can get this little bugger out?

  13. ATF Shotgun Study - Here it is!

    Why would someone sell their gun for 400. Seems rediculous. I'll offer anyone $401 for theirs. The price is rite.

    Hate to say this but I bought mine new for 480 + tax, got to shoot it for the first time last week, been locked in the safe for all most a year.

    But really what do you guys think, how long do we have before they ban these shoties?

    After the killings in Tuscon and the left running full speed with this, i hear allot of buzz of large mag bans which would be basically be a gun ban seeing most guns out their hold more then 10rds, i have a bad feeling these guns might be on their way out.
