I bought my S-308 back in 2006 and it came with a threaded barrel w/ flash hider equipped. I bought a muzzle brake for it but it didnt fit the threads. Im no millwright so i know jack about thread sizes/pitches. I do know it is reveresed threads. Im not sure if this thread job was after market or factory. How do i find my thread size numbers?

Hell yes!!!!!!! I would buy this in a heart beat. You got a money making idea right here my friend. Pursue it.

So after removing my JT mag release and filing it down to the size of the original mag release, assisted by sunnybean, i re-installed it and test fit my factory mag and SGM mag which both seem to fit fine. Then off to the range for a test fire. Upon shooting my factory Russian 5 round mag continued to drop out after the first initial shot. But the SGM mag never fell out after firing but sometimes never pushed the shells all the way to the top which resulted in a stove pipe or the LBHO engaging which in return I just pressed up on the slide release and loaded it. So I guess i have a few situati

Since I threw away my stock mag release that came with my Vepr-12 I dont have anything to compare my new JT mag release too when it comes to how much I need to file it down. I could guess and and file it then install it then remove it, then file it again all untill it find the right fit. But would really help me you guys could give me a messurement of your JT mag release length. I had such a hard time intalling the first time I smashed my damn stool.

Yes it is a JTE extended mag release I purchased from CSS. I had a bitch of a time installing it with the magwell in the way and then having to remove it again in order to file it down so it would seat properly on the rear end of the mag. So what could i do to the spring to help this situation? I was just going to file the top of the release some more untill I get that nice 'click' from the mag like i get on my S-12 JTE mag release.

I recently installed a extended magazine release on my Vepr-12 and since the mag has been dropping out after i shoot a round. I think to fix this i either have to file a little off the rear tang of the mag a or file a little off the top of the my new extended mag release. Right?

So I like the idea of using RPK wood(if i can find it) but I don't care for the buttstock style. Why is it that RPK wood furniture is preferred to customized to fit my Vepr-12 and not any other AK type of wood furniture?

I really do enjoy the look and feel of wood furniture on my Mak-90 and would love to apply that same look and feel to my Vepr-12. Is there a vendor who sells wood furniture for Veper-12s or can i buy a regular wood 7.62x39mm forearm, buttstock, and pistol grip then modify and apply to my Vepr-12? Thank you for your input.

So I've been wanting to put a muzzle brake on my S-.308 for some time now. I bought it used back in 2006 and it came with the pistol grip converted and a flash hider. Ive recently discovered that the threads are reversed for the muzzle attachments. Is this normal for all stock Russian Siagas or was this something some one did before I bought it?

But do you think the MKA sight would 'fit' the barrel of the Saiga? Being that there both 12 Gauge. I cant imagine the Mka sight being so too much taller.

I was just wondering this after noticing you can buy an aftermarket front sight for an MKA 1919 on CSS for aboot $30. But for a front site for a Saiga 12 is aboot $100. You would think the 1919 site would fit on the Saiga eh? I already Emailed CSS and they said they didn't know.

Will the stock threads on my Saiga .308 fit JP Enterprises Bennie Cooley Tactical muzzle brake?

My barrel is already threaded. Thank you both for the excellent info.

Any one own a Muzzel Brake? If so is it worth it? SMG sells one for about $150 and Dinzag sells one for about $35.

Thanks Jess

I was wondering if they ever made a Polly Choke for the S-20? Im having trouble finding any sort of Muzzle attachments for my S-20 in order to make it look/feel more bad to the bone. Suggestions, Ideas??

Where'd you get the Muzzle Brake for your S-20??

Tromix AR10 Rifle Shark= $85 SMG bolt on= $170 Dinzag Arms= $35 I must say Dinzags sounds the most enticing but he sells two types depending on muzzle threads: 5/8-24 RH barrels - common for .308 Saiga with 0.631" barrel under FSB. Threaded 1" deep internally 17x1 RH barrels - common for .308 Saiga with 0.671" barrel under FSB or cut back barrels. Threaded 1" deep internally. And If I did opt for Dinzag then Im not sure which of the two muzzle brakes would apply to my beloved Saiga .308. Any info and insight is appreciated. Thank you.

Ive had my S .308 for a while now and love it. The only problem is that when loading the magazine i have to make sure to have the last round loaded be on the right (versus the left in the double stack style). This is because if i have the last round loaded to be on the left it creates a problem. The problem being is when the mag is loaded and i pull back on the bolt carrier it stops on the shell. When inspecting the shell is is burred and scratched. This problem dosnt occur when the shell i loaded on the right. So i looked deeper into this and realized every time i shot the shell that was load

Whats 'EEA' mean? Were can i get a KA puck? And this all will help me shoot my S20 using Wally World bulk ammo and not jam. That would be nice because i just paid to get two of the four gas holes ported and it still jams ever other round. Oh yeah, its been polished and has the gunfixer plug. Please help me on not giving up on this beautiful thing.

I want my 10 round mag and I want my 10 round mag now!

Thanks guys. And now I know. And knowing is half the battle!

By removing the finishing coat via polishing, will that exposed part be more prone to rust? And if not, why not polish all metal parts that rub against each other?

Thier should be at least three gas ports in the front of the gas block right?

My frind recently purchesed a brand spanken new S12 and he's been telling me it stove pipes/jams on every round on both setting one and two. I told him that Saigas need to be broken in and to keep shooting about 50 rounds and call me back. Hes firing 7 1/2 shot 2 3/4 velocity 1290. I also said to check his gas ports and count how may and how big. I even talked with him about polishing and the gunfixer plug. What do you guys think?
