  1. This is a brand new Bulgarian front sight block with 24mm threads, bayonet lug, index pin & spring, and windage drum & sight post. This is a complete FSB, ready to be pressed on. I got this from K-VAR for a project, but the project fell through.

     

     

     

    These are going for 88 bucks from K-VAR, this is a screaming deal, at 28 bucks off.

     

     

     

    Buyer pays shipping, but it won't be more than 3 dollars.

     

     

     

    If you need this part for a build, and don't want to pay the high price, then look no further.

     

     

     

    If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at: j.grandstaff@gmail.com

  3. Ok, You purists and rule followers are gonna hate me for asking this question, but I've gotta ask it. Its not a sales pitch, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't belong in the business section. I'm only tryin' to get some info. Here goes.

     

    I have two factory Saiga-12 mags that don't work with my gun anymore because I went with the magwell mod. I've got an AGP and a ProMag 10 rounder that I filed down, and both work flawlessly.

     

    The tragedy is this: I ground down the front catch on one of the mags factory mags and got it to lock in, but the feed angle is too flat. But, I believe all I need to do is simply apply some plastic epoxy on the back of it below the rear catch to get the angle right.

     

    The point is, one of these mags is past the point of no return, but I'm pretty sure I can futz around with it and get it to work. If I don't, I'm not too worried, seeing as it came with the gun and I payed nothing for it.

     

    Now, I hope I haven't given anyone mental blue-balls with all this literal foreplay, so I'll finally ask what I set out to in the first place:

     

    Is it worth it to sell my unadulterated mag, or should I cut on it like the other one? Are these factory mags not worth a dime, or will I lose sleep knowing I destroyed something that was worth some money? In short, what is one of these things worth?

  4. Got a new lower price of $900 shipped, and I'm including a 30 round mag and bayonet.

    Up for sale is a Brand New In The Box, Never Been Fired, Arsenal SLR-106F in 5.56/.223 caliber.

    As you all know, this is one of the highest quality AK-type rifle you can buy. Arsenal is like the "Colt" of the AK-47 world.

    You get the long-range effectiveness of .223/5.56 with the knock-down-drag-out reliability of an AK-47. As well, it is one of the closest replicas of an AK-100 series Russian military rifle you can get.

    Not one round has been fired through this rifle, and it hasn't been out of the box except for an inspection and photo-shoot. It's still covered in storage oil and even has the factory plastic bag they wrapped it in when it was pulled fresh off the production line!

     

    It comes with one factory Bulgarian 5 round Waffle mag, one Bulgarian 30 round clear Waffle mag, Bulgarian Bayonet, sling, cleaning kit, cleaning rod, oil bottle and factory paperwork/manual.

     

    Specs are as follows:

     

    - 16 1/4″ Steyr technology, cold hammer forged chrome-lined barrel with a 1 in 7 twist

    -Threaded muzzle (24mm x1.5) with chrome-lined factory muzzle brake

    -Bayonet lug and accessory lug (gas block & front sight block bayo lugs)

    - U.S.-made polymer lower hand guard with stainless steel heat shield

    - Hand fitted ribbed top cover with serial number

    - Newly designed two-stage trigger that eliminates trigger slap

    - New U.S.-made polymer pistol grip designed to fit the pistol grip plate with no overhang

    - Hinge block with 4.5mm pivot pin

    - U.S.-made solid polymer side folding buttstock

    - Buttstock trap door to hold the included cleaning kit tube

     

    This is a later model, serial number beginning with "BE" and doesn't suffer from a canted front sight like some of the earlier models.

    I've dropped the price to $900 shipped. Anybody interested in heckling a a little bit, just get ahold of me.

    PM me, email, or give me a call, ask for Jon. I've got an FFL holder ready to ship.

  6. Just looking for an adjustable gas plug fro the .410 as well as a Bolt Hold-Open

     

    I'm mainly after the Adjustable Gas Plug

     

    I'm not sure if anybody has any spare parts, or if there's some aftermarket stuff out there.

     

    If anybody could point me in the right direction, that'd be great.

     

    Also, I've got a Tapco side-folder for trade, as well as 3 plastic sporter butt-stocks, a great condition wood sporter butt-stock (pulled from a S-.308) and a 10/22 Bullpup plastic stock.

  7. Hey fellers,

     

    I'm old to the S-12 and and other calibers but new to the Saiga .410

     

    Here's the question:

     

    I've got an early model, imported by Kalashnikov USA, and it appears to be the same as the EAA models - except that it does not have an adjustable gas tube. Just a screw-in plug where the adjustable plug should be.

     

    Can I get an aftermarket adjustable plug that will fit?

     

    Question 2:

     

    Are all of these guns the same, in that they can run 2 1/2 and 3 inch shells as long as you get the right mag, or am I stuck using the hard to find 3 inch shells?

     

     

    I'd give y'all some pics, but the damn thing isn't working right now. The receiver says '.410 MAGNUM 3"' but I wasn't sure.

     

    I'd like to show the pic of the gas puck, as its kind of weird. Anybody got an inf, ideas, or anything?

     

    Thanks

  8. Hi fellas,

     

    Got a question of some importance. I've got a 7.62x39 Saiga that I'd like to convert. The one I've got on deck has the mag well dimples so I'd like to go for an authentic feel. I've decided to go the AK-100 route with the left side-folding stock, bayonet lug and the like. I just can't decide what thread to go with on the barrel.

     

    I've got the Bulgarian 24mm FSB on the way, but can't decide if I'd rather cut the threads off the FSB and thread the actual barrel to 14x1LH.

     

    I've been doing some research on muzzle brakes, and it seems the only options I have for 24mm threads are the AK-74 or Krinkov style. Where there are countless options when it comes to 14x1LH (birdcage, Spetznaz, Dragunov style, A2, etc.) Also, It doesn't look like you'd be able to put a muzzle nut on the 24mm threads and use the lug on the gas block for a bayonet - just bayonet-with-muzzle-brake-attached only.

     

    So, what do you think? Should I go with authentic 24mm threads and cut my muzzle brake options down, or should I break convention and go with 14mm threads & more options?

  9. Just a quick question:

     

    I'm going to be replacing the trigger guard and mag catch with one from some kind of AKM/AK-74 type rifle, and I just wanted to know, does it matter what type I replace it with? Are all the mag catches the same?

     

    I initially wanted to go with a Bulgarian trigger guard/mag catch from K-VAR, but they're all "out of stock." Anybody got any ideas/answers? Anybody want to sell me a couple trigger guards? Thanks.

  10. G O B and Jack, you guys are right on.

     

    I didn't mean to turn this into a lengthy debate. The point is that wickeddeus can put that RAA stock on his rifle. Its the same difference since RAA is shipping them that way. If there ever was an issue (which there never would be), all he'd have to say is that it came that way.

     

    Don't get me wrong wickeddeus, you should follow 922r, when its applicable. Just don't let it discourage you from tinkering on your Saiga. And by all means, don't let it drive you crazy.

  11. I'm gonna kick myself in the balls on this one.

     

    Ya know, upon further relection, the target on the right is a pretty damn good group for a life-size target and taking into account how many rounds were fired.

     

    One thing is for sure, I think he killed both of them.

  12. I'm at a loss here. The train left, and I was on the thing.

     

    What country are you in, and where'd you buy that baby, and how much did you pay?

     

    Update:

     

    Country: oh, duh, you're from Greece. How is that you can have quality toys like that in Greece and we, one of the most powerful countries in the world, can't get quality weapons unless we pay boo-koo bucks? Something is ass-backwards here...

     

    On a side note, my great-grandparents were Greek-nationals, so it doesn't surprise me that Greece friggin' rocks.

     

    Do you have to have any special permits or licenses in Greece to own one of those, or can any civilian own one?

     

    DAMN, that's cool! :up:

     

    It's smoothbore, so for Greece is just a hunting shotgun, so you can own it like a civilian.However there are directions from the European Union about smoothbore guns with military/tactical look and use.In fact we have here an AK mechanism that is DE-modified to make it semi-auto and with some other differences from the total tactical models.I don't know exactly the direction, but I think it might say that if it can be modified easily, it shouldn't be imported.Dunno.

    Now about the prices.Think about it.How much did you payed for your Saiga? I payed 500 warm Euros back in 2004 when I bought a .410.The Barnaul .410 slugs cost 8 euros for a box of 10.It cost 800 for a new S12.Do the calculations and see how much money is it in your currency.Also from the prices I saw recently, a Walther P99 goes like 600 Euros and a Beretta 92 can be found for 1200.In a country that the average salary is like 600 Euros, the thing is more than obvious.

    What do you mean "Quality guns" ?I don't know about the guns people prefer in the States, but I'm pretty sure that USDM guns like Colt, S&W, Winchester, Browning and stuff like that are much cheaper than this side of the ocean, and also I believe they pretty much are "Quality guns".

     

    Hey thanks for the info, man. You are right. I don't know what I'm bitchin' about. I totally forgot about all of the gun manufacturers here in the 'States.

     

    Well, I think you still have it a little better off. I get to live in a state where it rains constantly, and...well, you live in Greece. ^_^

  13. Yeah, well, it seems like a lot of fear and bullshit to me, nalioth.

     

    It also doesn't state that US parts have to marked as such. So there is no way for them to check which parts are US made and which aren't.

     

    If they had suspician of criminal activity, had a warrant, and wanted to allocate the resources, they take every rifle apart and to a metalurgical test on all the parts. But that's assuming they felt it was necessary to allocate those kind of resources for one little thing. ("Johnson, we've got suspician that Joe Blo is violating 922r. Scramble the SWAT team, assemble our scientists, and call the FEDs. We're gonna bust 'im.")

     

    Needless to say, you'd have to be doing some shit that was majorly wrong for them to be up your ass that far.

     

    If you were doing something bad enough to cause federal agents to break down your door and confiscate your guns, a 922r compliance charge would be the least of your worries.

  14. Excellent question wickeddeus. Allow me to extrapolate.

     

    What chaps my ass is that, whenever there is a question about conversion, everyone get up in arms, ("oh my God, 922r! The BATF! AHlalalala!")

     

    I had the good fortune of having a lengthy discussion with a guy who strictly builds AKs out of parts kits. He explained to me that 922r only applies to gun importers and gun manufacturers. He has to build them 922r compliant, but only to a point. Which means, he can build them without a mag so that they are compliant, sell them as such and still be following guidlines.

     

    What does this mean? Well the gun is 922r compliant without a mag, but if you use it foreign mag it makes in non-compliant, but it doesn't matter because:

    1.) you didn't build it

    2.) you didn't import it

    and 3.) It is already here.

     

    922r is essentially an import law and doesn't apply to the end-user. So that means, as long as you are not manufacturing or importing a firearm, you don't have to worry about 922r in the slightest.

     

    That's right, that means you can take any Saiga rifle or shotgun, right out of the box, and put a thumbhole stock on it and use a hi-cap mag in it and you, the end-user are completely legal.

     

    So, to answer your question wickeddeus, as long as it is legal by your state and local laws, then you are golden.

  15. I'm at a loss here. The train left, and I was on the thing.

     

    What country are you in, and where'd you buy that baby, and how much did you pay?

     

    Update:

     

    Country: oh, duh, you're from Greece. How is that you can have quality toys like that in Greece and we, one of the most powerful countries in the world, can't get quality weapons unless we pay boo-koo bucks? Something is ass-backwards here...

    Do you have to have any special permits or licenses in Greece to own one of those, or can any civilian own one?

     

    DAMN, that's cool! :up:

  16. Yeah man, the best way to go is like these guys are saying. If you replace the buttstock and trigger group with US made parts, it won't matter what mags you use. That's the bear minimum - replaced 4 foreign parts with 4 US parts, total foreign parts = 10, you're good. Bottom line, conversion parts will be around 100 bucks, so just expect that.

     

    But unlike a 400 dollar WASR from Romania, a 400 dollar Saiga from Russia (with love), is of much higher quality. It might take a little time, effort and patience, but you will definitely be happy with the outcome.

     

    +1 for all these guys - they got great ideas!
