No one has mentioned Weiger 223 mags yet? excellent steel construction, Lock up tighter than a seals butt hole, and function 100%. You will need a bullet guide and also trim a little from the top of the mag. I've tried all the mags mentioned and weigers are the best. they might be hard to find though.

sounds about right got mine last month for 65

found the grip from a private seller on another forum. I've never seen one before EVER

looks good I would find an ak 74 gas tube they seem to have a better fit. Keep in mind also there is a tension spring that should go on the gas tube. Its what I use on my 223

Or you can use the proper sized wrench I think a 14 or 15 mm fits perfect

The first method is very easy and only requires one standard handguard retainer and a nut and bolt with lock washers. 1st I used a saws all to carfully cut down the middle of the HG retainer starting at the top and stopping just before you cut all the way through the bottum. Next you grind or file the two steps on the inside of the hand guard retainer so its completely rounded inside. You then bend the HG retainer around the barrel and use the bolt and nut with lock washers in place of the retaining level. This pic shows the cut retainer cut completely through but the bottum edge should

Wouldnt have been possible without this site.

My sh*t creek paddle. Complete with all the tapco goodies. Converting was a breeze for the most part. Really enjoyed this one. Its my first time owning a saiga. Shoots and handles like a dream. Didn't care for the feel of the handguard so I roughed her up a little and it came out good.

Watch these videos. you should be able to complete and answer all of your question from the video. I converted mine with this video alone.

Dinzag LOVE YOU GUYS! my pistol grip nut came quick and got a set of plastic hole covers, just what i needed. thanks guys !

Same thing happened to me on my s12, try pushing forward on your trigger after you shoot and see if that fixes it, if it does do the above Thanks guys, I eventually found another post here about this same problem Hopefully this is the cuase thanks again

I think this is the same problem I am having. I converted my 223 and first trip the the range I can only get one shot off at a time and after every shot it feels like its on safe. I found when I pull charge the charging handle a little it will fire the next round.

I have already checked and everything seems correct. When I perform a function test it works perfect. My pistol grip bolt sticks up a little into the receiver maybe this could be the cuase for it hanging up on something.

I recently converted my saiga 223 and everything seem to function fine after the conversion. My first time out to the range however, The rifle would fire, eject and load the next round but would not fire the next round. I noticed that if I pulled the charging handle a couple inches back and return forward that it would then allow me to fire. And the process repeats cuasing me to have to pull back a small amount on the charging handle after each shot. When no rounds are loaded the weapons seems to cycle and function correctly. Any suggestions or ideas on what this could be?
