  1. I've got a wood stock S-.308, and I love the wood stock so much that I'm not about to swap out for a synthetic and/or convert it. But wood isn't exactly waterproof (it swells and stuff). Its not one of my guns that I would throw in the mud like I would my SAR-1, but I still want the option to fire it under adverse weather conditions, rain, sleet, whatever. I didn't want to go with a shiny laquer finish, cause I like the finish its got now. So, I was thinking, what do you guys think of Thomson's Water Seal? You think that would do the trick to waterproof it while still keeping its current finish? Thanks.

  2. Well, I'm using Australian .308 surplus, and last I heard, it was non-corrosive. I chalk it up to the high humiduty in my house. By the way, what kind of lube you say is good for metal? Moly is it? What brand do I buy and where do I buy it? Thanks.

  3. Its been pretty humid where I live for the past couple weeks, and after taking my guns out for a routine cleaning, I noticed that my AK-47 magazines have some spotty surface rust, along with the gas block and gas tube on my S-.308. I scrubbed out the gas system with solvent and a shotgun brush, wiped the rest down, rescrubbed the barrel, then put a light coat of oil over the whole thing. The bore is perfectly allright, but I was just wondering how hard it is to keep rust out once its taken hold. Thanks.

  4. I don't notice any gap between the bolt carrier and the front receiver at all. It should close all the way. If you're talking about that *tiny* gap, that is normal. Even my Romanian AK (SAR-1) has a very small gap. The rotating bolt locks into the receiver anyway. AKs are cool like that. No worries.

  5. My mount does have rings built in, I will be shooting at deer and elk. I'd like to get a scope with a reticle that has notches in the Y axis of it, just so that I know where to aim down range. See, I can't dial in the scope so that it shoots where I put the crosshairs (it shoots a little low) on account of the mount being so high above the bore. I'm speculating, but that's what I've gathered.

  6. Hey fellas, I want to get a Russian POSP scope for my Saiga .308. The only trouble is that I don't know if I should get a 4X, 6X, or 8X, and what mm lens. My Saiga is a 22 incher with a non-converted wood stock. I know that the Ishmash scope mount I have is angled farther back than normal AK mounts to compensate for the longer sporter stock, as compared to the shorter AK buttstocks. So, I'm asking: what kind of scope do I get that will work with my unconverted S-.308, and where do I purchase said scope? Or, instead of going through all the trouble of finding a scope that works, should I just replace my current scope for one with a mill-dot reticle?

  7. WEll, hells bells. I know squat about threads and muzzle breaks. I guess either way, I would put some lock tight on the threads anyway...

     

    So rick, you still got one of those threaded adapters in stock? I get paid on Friday, so that's when I'm gonna buy one from ya. I'll PM you with details.

  8. This is totally awesome. Put me down for one. I've been looking for something for my S-.308 for a flash hider for awhile. Something that works well and that doesn't break the bank. And like Bob Barker says, the price is right.

     

     

     

    PS Have you considered making a muzzlebreak or a muzzlebreak flash hider combo?

  9. Hey Bob, I saw on your site the Saiga 22 in. with a flash hider on it. I haven't been able to find a S-.308 that has a FSB with a flash hider on it. Did it come from the factory like that and you just cut it down? Also, does anybody know how easy it is to take the FSB off a Saiga and weld a muzzle break/flash hider on it?
