  1. I have a converted .308 that is unfired if your interested. It also comes with several of the factory magazines and bipod.

     

    I just lost interest after my AR10 purchase but would also be interested in trading for a Saiga 12 or .410........................................

     

    Been sitting in the safe for about a year, never been fired, has all accessories (case, holster, speed loader), 2 factory 16rd mags, 2 MecGar 18rd mags (mecgar makes the OEM mags, or so I understand). Would like to trade for a Mossberg SPX or similar shotgun, or a Cetme rifle. Thanks
  2. leo@VKA mentioned the .50 Beowolf and the .450- and it turns out Cabelas has assembled uppers free floated barrels and magazines for about $750.00 as well as the .204 which is my personal favorite. The .50 Beowolf kit is from Alexander arms and the .450 is from Bushmaster. The .204 is from DPMS and I am using the same basic configuration with a high rise upper. It consisantly shoots .5" groups and I hate to say it but I was in the middle of a Saiga .308 conversion when I first shot this and never touched the .308 again- it's still in the closet ready for the trigger to be installed.

  3. I have an unconverted unfired .308 22" barrel with a tapco folding stock and a rockmount bipod. This gun has the original FCG removed and the receiver worked for a dual hook fcg. I have a brand new tapco g-2 FCG with the pins and springs. I will sell for $350 (not including shipping) or trade for ?????- I like ar-15 stuff/ammo .223/ .204/ 12 guage buck, shotguns, kayaks and canoes. This is in new "UNFIRED" condition from EEA arms purchased years ago and in storage. Let's deal!!!!!!!!!

  4. Much like Tokageko stated- I have found the average .308 tends to shoot between 1.5"-2.0" high under 50 yards and about dead on @ around 200 yards. I have a Saiga .308 that I have totally lost interest in after my last AR build. I picked this up partially converted w/o a fcg and have since gathered a Crapco g2 for a conversion just pretty much to sell it. It has a fal grip on it and a bipod. I also have a psop6x scope that has never been mounted as well. The thing that really pushed me over the edge is the fact I bought some bulk .308 Indian ammo that I am afraid to shoot. just for reference a meter is 39" as opposed to the 36" in a yard. Have fun with dialing in your new Saiga and post your next range report.

  5. Anyone notice the crap ammo is coming from countries that the weather is hot and humidity is high?? coincidence?? Anyway I just bought some super incindiary Raufus ammo and supposed to burn at 5000 degrees on impact. Don't know why I bought it but sounds like some bad ass rounds.

  6. Has anyone shot this "crap"? I have heard of this ammo literally blowing up but noone at the local rod and gun club knows much about his. I am sitting on several hundred rounds and not sure what to do with it. I have been really tempted to shoot this stuff. Anyone know the real story or is it an urban legand?

  7. That Brownells sounds like the way to go. What's the temp range of the BBQ paint? I have been using the engine enamel from any autoparts store for all types automotive products and the receiver of my .308 conversion. These are cheap spray cans but the paint is fuel/ oil resistant, looks good and rated for up to 500 degrees. The max temp may be too low for for a gas tube application. Just a thought.

  8. Wolverine- I would hate to see you go as you offer a lot of insight and experience to the forum and with being a contributor the site would be looser of that deal. I feel there are a few people who make this forum work as well as it does in the areas I haunt. I look forward to their posts and input. Wolverine is included in my list of a few good people who honestly help other members in this forum and also includes cobra 76 two as well as BattleRifle3G, smithmonsters, and IndyArms. Your input does not go unnoticed. :smoke:

  9. I would like to say I'm glad someone else has experienced this problem but the whole situation really sucks. There are too many mods to get the Tapco to work. Ya know with the spring hole and grinding the hammer. I have lost interest lately and haven't ordered the RedStar FCG yet. I feel that the adjustable RS will cure the problem as there really isn't much to the FCG as far as function. When I get back to this I will post the results or even e-mail you directly. I hope you will do the same. Good luck.

  10. Well the problem is definately in the FCG from Tapco. :ded: I am going to buy one of the Redstar adjustable FCG's and go from there. jtoddellis- I do appreciate the spring offer but I feel the problem is behind the whole FCG. I hope to be able to return the favor in the future. :super: Will let everyone know what happans just as soon as I figure it out myself.
