I have purchased many boxes of Remington Express Long Range 3" shells. Never a problem until recently. Failed to feed almost every time recently caused me to think there was something wrong with the gun. Finally I happen to have an older round of the same ammo (Same exact box from the same retailer) The four new boxes contained shells 1/8 inch shorter than the older ammo. These 3 inch shells are 2-5/8 unfired. They hang up on the barrel hood. Now are we supposed to shop for three inch shells with a tape measure?

There was a pretty set on Ebay not too long ago. I bought a 223 set from Saigastock. The grip required very little modification to fit like a glove. Both pieces are rock solid. I really like the carved cheek. I can close my eyes, raise the gun to my face, and the sights are aligned.

Ditch the synthetic stock and grip and put a wood sporter set on it. Changed mine out last week. l really like it.

Perhaps he was referring to reloading Golden Bear shells.

Did it fire the first round of each mag sucessfully? When you manually cleared/charged the action (after ftf the second round), would it fire the third? If so,it might not be the bear ammo.

There is no shortage of internet pics of the 410 missing that rivet. Most I found are old posts so I suppose this pin was added somewhere along the way. It has got to be a tension pin. Likely to reduce mag rattle. Seems silly to add it on one side as it causes the mag to twist slightly. All my mags are worn much more on the rear right side from this slight cocking off center. I noticed that the sgl41 has a pressed dimple near the rear of the mag well. I assume it is added for tension. It is on both sides of the receiver (a good thing) I also noticed that the front rivet/post is still there on

I am considering removing it. Look at this one owned by Cobra 76 two.

Update: modified one of my mags at the point of contact with this post. 100% better mag insertion. Makes absolutely no sense to me why this rivet post is here....

Thanks for the replies. After watching bigdaddyhatty's video (and the ease of insertion), I took a close look at the wear pattern of my magazines and I think I found a problem. I started a new thread about a riveted post that seems be the source of my aggrevation. If you get a chance please look at the pic in that thread. Thanks again for your help

I cant find a purpose for this rivet/post. On my gun, it protrudes slightly further than the front flat that houses an installed magazine. It catches and hangs up inserting the magazine most of the time, It holds nothing that I can see. To clarify, if you look into the mag well, on the back side of this rivet head is a post about 5/16 in diameter. It is slightly beveled around the end. I am wondering if this was added to put tension on the magazine. I did see a picture of a 410 without this rivet somewhere on the forum. Seems odd that it is only on the right side if it was meant to provi

I have owned this .410 several years now. It is the only AK style weapon I have handled. I cannot for the life of me swap a mag on this gun without fumbling. I can change a mag in my mini 14 without a hitch and in total darkness. (it is rock n lock as well) The saiga seems to have little to no margin of error in positioning a magazine.I wish there was a mag well for the .410 like the 12 guage.
