  1. Hey all, I've been nosing around here in the forum and there are LOTS of great looking shotguns for sure. I'd like to eventually get either a S12 or a VEPR 12 and then have it cut back to make an SBS. I have seen some really great looking Short Barreled SAIGA 12's and a couple VEPR's. I'd like to ask you guys that have VEPR's that have SHORT BARRELS to post them so the rest of us can enjoy them. I'd like to see more to compare how they look to the Saiga 12's that I have seen. What do you all think about the comparison? Would you rather have the S12 or the V12 in SBS configurati
  2. If I wanted to end up with something close to the one I posted, what would be the easiest and most economical to start with, the S12 or the VEPR 12 and why? Thanks Nalajr
  3. Thanks Beefcake, I was mainly wanting to know if something like that could be done at home and without the use of a PRO. Not saying I would, just gathering info right now. I would let someone else handle all the Tax Stamp stuff. I wouldn't want to make a mistake in that area that would cause me LOTS of headaches. I looked the other day on one of the gun sales sites and saw several "custom" S12's that were priced over $2,000! Many were WAY OVER. After you take away the $700 for the S12 that means that they are charging up to $1,500 for the parts and work they done to it. That's a
  4. Hey all, Seeing these really great looking S12 and S20 shotguns that have been tricked out to be as awesome as possible, it makes me want one that much more. I know there would be things that I simply could not do myself. I either wouldn't have the know-how or the gear to do things. When that time came I would send it to someone to complete. I am wondering how difficult it would be for me to get a S12 and start customizing it? For those that do these things themselves, what kind of information can you tell me about such an endeavor? Is it something you would caution against and
  5. I see a lot of questions about the 922r law on shotgun forums. I don't pretend to unerstand all the ins and outs of it and naturally I would comply with any and all firearm laws and wouldn't counsel anyone to do anything different. Wnever I read about the law and the technical aspects of it, I always wonder about the enforcement of it. Here's a story that may be interesting to some of you. Back during the height of the AWB under Klinton I had some kind of questions about getting a Suppressor or some such thing and I called the local ATF office in Kentucky. After getting my questions
  6. Hey all, I don't come here very often and when I do it's because I have the strong urge to get my very own SAIGA 12 or a S20. I've never shot one, but have handled a few and liked the way they shouldered and felt. Just about everything I've read about them is VERY positive, especially the custom Saiga's by Tromix and a host of other talented shops. What I would like to get your thoughts on is whether you all consider these shotguns to be the IDEAL Home Defense shotgun currently available today. I don't ask if they're PERFECT, because no weapon is that good. Are there any negative a
  7. Hey all, I don't own a Saiga 12, but I would like to. I know there are very popular and I can see why. They look awesome and they run and run and run. One thing that I am not clear on is the magazines in a home defense situation where a LOT of stress is on you. It seems like those LONG mags are unwieldy and cumbersome, as does the drums. It looks like a standard pump or semi auto with a standard extended mag would be much more maneuverable and less likely to hang up on railing, furniture, corners or anything that you'd likely encounter at 3AM in the dark when you very well might be
  8. Hey all, I am new to the Saiga having never shot one and only handled one a couple of times. I have admired them in the past though. I have been thinking of getting a new shotgun for home defense and maybe some fun on the range. I also would like to try the 3 gun stuff, but that would be a ways off and would not be the reason I buy a shotgun. I'd like to ask a couple of questions if you all don't mind. 1. I don't think I have ever heard any really reliable info on whether the Saiga 12 and 20 gauges can handle the low cost boxes of practice ammo available at Wally World and other p
