  1. Read the rules and become a contributor before you go fishing for a price plz. :haha:

     

     

    did i break a rule? im just a private individual. Im going to post it on this forum in the appropriate place forsale. I just dont want to ask too much. Im not trying to make a profit. Ive just got to get rid of some of my guns...need some cash. Wife got laid off.

  2. Hmm what trigger guard are you using? I guess the only solution is to move the grip back. It seems to be really far forward. Perhaps get a different grip?

     

    Tromix Do-It-Yourself Saiga 12 Trigger Guard is what i used. the pistol grip screws into the trigger guard. I guess i may have to change grips.

  3. Who did your conversion, the pistol grip seems to be WAY too close to the trigger.

     

    Do you have a pistol grip nut hole cut in the receiver?

     

    I did the conversion. I think i just "LOOKS" too close to the trigger in the pic. The grip is notched to form around the back of the trigger guard. I basically bolted the grip where the old trigger stuck through the receiver. should i have made a hole? If i could move the grip back 1/4 of an inch it would solve the problem

  4. I hope Im calling it the right name, forgive me if I am not.

     

    I have a converted s12. next to the pistol grip is a button that you push that holds the bolt open. THe problem is that it is rubbing my pistol grip to the point that if I push it in, the only way I can get it to release the bolt is grab it was plyers, pull the bolt all way back, and pull the button out with the plyers. any ideas on how to fix this?

  5. Here are a few observations that may help those who want to convert.

     

    1. If know nothing about guns and you are not a handy type person, it will take you longer than you think.

    2. It is doable

    3. you will cuss

    4. This forum, Youtube, and google are your friends

    5. The springs will make you cuss some more.

    6. Gun vises are nice...i dont have one, but i wish i did.

    7. Mississippi Auto Arms is a good place to shop

     

    that is all

     

    oh yeah, and get a dremel

  6. I converted my saiga today (and lastnight). I shot it this evening to test it. It looked like this

     

    -fire

    -old cartridge ejected

    -new cartridge fed

    -the trigger is not reset

     

    So i pulled the bolt back and ejected the unfired cartridge and fed a new cartridge.

     

    -the trigger reset

    -fire

    -old cartridge ejected

    -new cartridge fed

    -the trigger is not reset

     

    and then repeat the whole process. So the trigger only resets when i manually pull the bolt back. any ideas?

  7. I got the bolt stop and spring in. now im trying to put the safty in, but it seems like the bolt stop is in the way. I have it pushed foward as far as it will go, but still in the way. do you have to grind something here?

     

     

    NEVER MIND.. GOT IT..THANKS

  8. Use dental floss. I've done this 3 times with great success.

     

    Another trick (applies to the S12 but apparently is not an issue with the .223) is to cut a notch in the BHO so the safety can be installed with the BHO in place.

     

     

    got it in...thanks guys

  9. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/LIGHT149-1.html

     

    It's UTG but it has a LED lamp so I don't think any amount of recoil can break it. I've got one... batteries don't last too long but its crazy-bright and has a pressure pad.

     

    I've got one on my Mossberg pump shotgun while I'm waiting for my new saiga 12 to get to my FFL in the mail. It's also kind of big... Takes 3 CR123s...

     

    I have had very bad luck w/ pressure pad switches, cheap brand ones. I have would avoid them unless they are by surefire or something like that.

     

    Get a G2l & the V Tac Mount, if you have rails.

     

    thanks for the advice

  10. Ive been on this board a few days now. It used to work nomally, but now When i click on a thread it shows the original thread starter and below that are links to the replys instead of the whole replys being stacked below the original thread starter. I hope that make sense.

     

    now. If i delete my cookies, all is fixed. for a few minutes anyway. Then it reverts back to the messed up way. can anybody help? I HATE having to click on every reply just to see it.

  11. Not sure about pressure pads and strobes but I like my TLR-1. So much so that I bought two. They can take a serious beating. However, They will run you about $80. In your price range look into the M-3 or maybe rigging up a handheld? The TLR-1 is the best bang for your buck IMHO.

     

    Yeah, ive looked at that. I havnt found it for under 100.
