Here's what OathKeepers founder has to say;
http://oathkeepers.o...wn-connecticut/
On a side note, this thread needs a mood lightener...

The most controversial legislation tends to happen during these "breaks" because the opposition's not present."We've had to many of these events in the past few years"
Yep, gun ban coming.. The only hope for the rights of the rest of us, is that its coming up on their break. And they will have time to temper their thoughts.
Call me a "Chicken Little" if you must, but my mindset's;
Ginny Burdick here, is already trying to pass legislation banning the transfer of mags over 10 rounds so I got a head start already. It's emergency legislation that takes effect as soon as it's passed, so I opted for expedited shipping & processing.
Needless to say, I'm feeling pretty good about having kept my medical licences current to serve as a backup career should legislation kill my business, and therefore livelihood.
I'm sure you're in the same boat.

yes, but the irony of that statement, is the vast majority of these shooters are on, or coming off of psych drugs.Pauly:
Is depression not classified as a mental illness?
If so any Doctor could tag a patient as mentally ill with the attendant consequences = slippery slope.
(pay attention to the side effects statements on the psych-drug commercials)
That being said, the publicity of these events spurs additional events, so in essence, we, along with the national medias are currently perpetuating the next one.

@ 315 eastern time, Obama will be making a press briefing in the Brady Press Briefing Room.
It'll be live here; http://www.kgw.com/live-stream in just under 25 minuets.

Yep. No semi-autos or pistols period, like the UK.
So....one more shooting is all it took and now you're all the way over in the gun control camp? What kind of gun control would you propose that hasn't already been tried and failed? Prohibition? Mag capacity? no gun zones? No guns for criminals? No guns for the mentally ill? Am I missing something?
22 *wounded* in China. Not dead. Big fucking difference, especially to the parents of those kids.I never thought I'd say this, but there needs to be some sort of change to gun laws in the US. We shouldn't have to turn fucking elementary schools - ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS! - into armed fortresses because we can't, as a nation, get our collective shit together with regard to gun violence.
In China its pretty common for psychos to go into grade schools with machetes and wreak similar havoc. We need to get our shit together with regards to mental health... as, no doubt, you have to have more than a couple of screws loose to go down that road.
just happened today, 20 dead in knife attack at school in china.
Ya' know that's what they're eventually gonna go for.
As for mental illness.... What if they say the desire for firearms for self defense or one's interpretation of the 2-A means they're paranoid, therefore mentally ill?
As a former mental health professional, I'd strongly advise people think about that last one.
Doctors have more power than judges, and the government is about to take over healthcare....

Just wait.... it'll be interesting to see what's passed by the 5-10 people who show up to vote on "whatever" during the upcoming surprise sessions held while the vast majority of the house and senate are home on vacation over Christmas & new years...

Yet one more reason not to send your kids into the public indoctrination system.
To those saying "their faith has been tested"... That's Man, Not God.
God was kicked out of the building, states, politics and conversation years ago.

what exactly is the special feature that keeps it from working loose?Thanks for the info. I have two surefire mags and 1 APG. No interest in buying a drum mag, so maybe I'll wait until the new model comes out to buy an old one.
Is the Vepr 12 another manufacturer of 12 gauge AK's, or a new model of Saiga?
Anyone else want to weigh in on the bolt on vertical charge handle?
I talked to Scott at DPH for a good while at a recent gunshow here in NC. I got to see and discuss most of their new stuff and other things new on the scene. Among these things was the vert CH he has that just bolts on and resembles the Galil design. I was impressed with it actually. Looks very well made and it's designed so it can't work loose. It has a special feature to the set screw keeping this from happening. Does not even require a thread locker. I plan to get one on my next DPH order to try out.
As far as the LRBHO goes...well I will just say it is not dead in the water....

You don't have the ammo because you're preparing for WROL. That would make you a "crazy delusional right wing gun nut that's planning for the end of the world"...
So unless you want a nice relaxing vacation at your local acute behavioral health sciences unit as they take your guns for mental issues, you have it because after Obama got elected the first time, you couldn't find ammo to go target shooting due to the panic buy, and you wanted to ensure that never happened again because target shooting is a hobby of yours.
As for the rest, Good luck and back up the video before your system recycles the space.
Oh, and stay away from tweekers from now on.

When the hell did the first reports ever say that it was a white guy? They all said he was wearing a white mask.
When it first was happening.
My folks were in the area and heard about it and called me to say avoid the area so I turned on the news's live stream and watched the reports from 15 minuets into it. First reports said White Male with white ski mask.
Here's the douchebag who shot up the mall.
3 notes;
1- NOT a white dude
2- NOT exactly looking like a conservative, run of the mill gun guy.
3- Stole the rifle.
How much you wanna bet he was on prescription antidepressants like Kip Kinkle, the Columbine kids, Colorado guy, Virginia tech guy, etc... etc...?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand here comes the first legislation...
First up, Mags;
Lol! Looks like most of the guys I shoot with. Piercings, gauges, probably some ink, messy hair. Hell that's me but I'm white. There was a guy in my last NRA instructor course giving me shit over the half inch gauges in my ears. He stopped after actually talking to me and seeing that I could shoot and handle a rifle.
This guy's just another idiot they will use as an example.
Great, but at least he doesn't fit the stereotype that all the radical progressives around here try to put fourth of every gun owner being an evil white male christian or crazy murderous veteran, both of whom only want firearms so they can run around killing brown people, case in point the media lightening Zimmerman's skin, calling him white, then posting pictures of Trayvon Martin when he was 12.
It's all part of this shit where they're trying to say it's all the fault of the "white male power structure" or "Male Patriarchal" system, ie; all the "Stop the war on women" shit, and all the other bullshit like saying that "rights should be doled out as the situation requires" shit that the far left has been relentlessly pushing.
Truth be told, we'd be better off if any time some shit like this happened, it was committed by a minority raced transvestite wearing assless chaps & pink pumps, running around with chained together piercings at all 5 points and a rubber chicken hanging half out his/her ass while screaming in Spanish, because at least it would fuck up the ultra left's attempt at stereotyping these incidences.
Seen "Red State"?
The culture is shifting and the left has been relentlessly trying to demonize and stereotype all gun owners and 2A supporters and anybody connected to firearms in any way.
Have you seen the emergency legislation that Ginny Burdick just resubmitted on the very next day after the incident?

First reports said he was a white guy, just like the first reports of Zimmerman did.Here's the douchebag who shot up the mall.

2- NOT exactly looking like a conservative, run of the mill gun guy.
3- Stole the rifle.
so tell us, how is a "conservative, run of the mill gun guy" suppose to look like?
because of the pictures I have seen on this thread: http://forum.saiga-1...o-we-look-like/
there are quite of few scruffy looking dudes that look worse then him. oh BTW, not all of those guys are white either.
about the only thing you got right, is he stole the rifle.
The left tries to stereotype "mass shooters" as white, right wing gun nuts. This kid was a SE Portland Hipster. I can about guarantee you he voted for Obama.
That area of Portland's called "Fellony Flats" by the locals, myself included.
Most of my friends live in the area, and half of everybody's kids work at the mall there at one point in their lives. This kid's no ghost, shit-tons of his family's friends are all over my friends's facebook pages telling the kid's story.
It was attempted suicide by cop. He killed 1 guy then just randomly racked several shots off & ran around screaming "I'm the shooter" from what people are saying.
Come over and get close up to the Portland scene, and tell me how many young people with lip piercings and stretched out ears voted for Romney There's a reason Occupy Portland was the 2nd largest in the country. Hell, 3 hipster punks here called me racist just for voting republican last month. They drank the fuckin' koolaid and then some for the most part here dude.
It's not too far fetched of an assumption to say the kid's not a conservative being as many adults never reach the level of maturity to take responsibility for themselves, let alone young people, and especially not in a community that rewards those with their hands out
So kindly take your tone, and gently shove it up your ass thank you very much.
Best regards.

Tite.
If you want to blast for good adhesion, try 70 grit aluminum Oxide, then heat the gun and wipe it down with MEK, then the paint will hold like there's no tomorrow.

Read the title. It pretty much sums it up.
My netbook took a crap but was under a best-buy warranty. They gave me an in-store credit and I picked up this new POS that has windows 8.
The fuckin' thing wants a ton of personal info just to set it up (now I have a PC named "Get Fucked") and if I want to customize stuff, I get to waste a shitload of time re-learning how to run the fuckin' thing.
Sure, if I had no life, or nothing better to do, like the mountain of work I need to get done... That might be a fun new adventure, learning new things and challanging myself, but unfortunately, I DO have better shit to do, so this sucks ass.
I pray Gates comes to Portland someday & I run into him. Multi-billionare or no, I plan to smack the everloving shit out of the guy should I ever get the opportunity.
That being said, if anybody has the personal info of the cocksucker who runs apple, I'd about be willing to drive a thousand miles to stomp that fucker down after I-tunes recently jacked another couple hundred dollars worth of music from my MP-3 library.
Why the hell do these fuckers have to screw everything up as soon as we finally get proficient with shit? I just don't get it.

Yeah... It sure does work without the spring. Works real well, even without engaging it. Works great to jam up in the action while firing.
WTF?
Let me guess... Next there's gonna be a thread talking about no need for mag springs so long as we hold the guns upside down? :/
Sorry for the snarky tone, but this type of half assery (especially when I see it from people posing as "professionals") just annoys the hell out of me.
Just use a small screwdriver to lift the spring leg up (press the blade against the side of the receiver as you lift) then when the leg's high enough, press the BHO against the receiver and release the spring so it falls on the BHO's dog ear.Eventually, I will get around to removing the FCG and reinstalling the spring.
Tilting it up first and notching the BHO will prevent the failure in the future.

If you can't reach around a corner and fire your "combat shotgun" one handed to clear the way, there's something wrong there IMHO and one should get to tuning.
Between the S-12 & V-12 it can go either way. If you just want to be able to put a shit-ton of lead down range, you're mechanically inclined, and a good craftsman, you can have a drummed up converted S-12 running like a raped ape for a ballpark of $800.00 if you do everything yourself. I'm talkin' hella on the cheap, like using a takeoff buttstock, search out a $20.00 G-2, reuse the TG etc...
Before anybody thinks it'd be ghetto, this gun (w/o mags) would be just over $700.00 to build one's self if someone really tried to keep costs down;
The V-12's gas system doesn't really strike me as all that special. It has 5 ports at the S-12 4 port size and the puc/op-rod combo are better engineered to eliminate the running start and slam from the gas puc on the op-rod that happens with the S-12, and the V-12's puc keeps the op-rod centered.
Nearly the same results can be obtained by bottoming out a Tom Cole HD-op rod in an S-12's carrier to ensure better energy transfer directly to the carrier's shaft for durability, and a CSS Performance Puc to eliminate the puc's running start before hitting said op-rod.
The above said, it's all about what one's looking for IMO. Both can be spectacular weapons.
At first I was loving the novelty of the V-12, and yes, it does seem to be higher build quality from the factory, but if a person doesn't have a touch over a grand to plop down on a V-12 and they're good at research on this forum, have some simple tools and a touch of ambition, going with the S-12's a VERY good choice still the way I see it.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I do love my V-12, but the S-12's no slouch by any stretch of the imagination, and speaking from experience, there's a whole lot more to getting drums to run reliably on the V-12 than anybody's mentioned yet.
Prototype's in the 3rd stage and lookin' real good.

Absofuckinglutely NOT.The original question was what mods would you do FIRST... And I would think you would agree that replacement of the gas plug gives you more control to tune the system to the loads you are using - regardless of the FCG and BCG being re-profiled and polished or not.
The factory plug is the most efficient in my experience until the weapon's properly tuned.
From my testing, NO gas plug increases reliability on low recoil loads over the factory plug. Pucs on the other hand, I swear by the CSS performance puc.
-
I personally don't see the need for it IF YOUR GAS SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING AS IT SHOULD. If you are trying to cure a problem by reducing friction, to allow it to get by with deficient gas flow, then have you really cured the problem? I have no problems with ANY loads I put through my S12 or my Vepr 12 because the gas systems are properly functioning.
Less resistance means less gas needed to cycle the weakest loads.
Take two properly gassed guns side by side, one with GlassBolt and the other without, and the GlassBolt gun will run lighter loads more reliably, regardless of added weight of vertical chargers or the HD op-rod. I got hundreds of people posting on this very forum that'll attest to that.
Less gas needed to run the same loads means less wear on the parts, and that equals a overall more durable weapon with longer service life because less energy is being violently transmitted through the parts.
The slower the gas enters the system, and the less gas that must enter the system to cycle the same loads, the better for long term durability.
Wear, stress etc, has a cumulative effect over time.
That being sadi, to answer the OP's question of;
If you had a brand new Saiga 12 and $100 what would you change first.I'd find another ten bucks & buy a cheap buttstock, MD arms Molot Pistol Grip, and single hook Tapco G-2 FCG, and I'd convert the weapon back to the AK configuration.
That's what I'd change FIRST if I only had a hundred bones & a brand new S-12.

Like dude said, it's not just polishing, it's profiling.We ARE talking an AK based weapon here... aren't we???
I think polishing is over rated. There are some instances (trigger) were it is worth while, but I am not sold on polishing bolts and carriers. If the gas system is working properly, parts tend to mate over time - making polishing unnecessary. I did have some "issues" with my S12, that went away after replacing the gas plug (MD Arms), and running a hundred or so rounds through it with lubrication. My Molot Vepr 12 on the other hand, ran great out of the box (again with proper lubrication), and performed flawlessly durring last weekend's deer hunting, in which it accounted for three deer.
Look in the magwell as you pull the charger & you'll notice the bolt rotating & extracting. From the factory it's hexigonal and has a huge hump to drag over the shells which press very hard against the bolt, especially with drum mags.
The bolt profile as well as matching the hammer to the carrier really do reduce resistance to keep power in the cycle for better reliability with low recoil loads.
Here's some close-ups of a "decent" reprofile and an "okay" polish.
It can be done by a skilled hobbyist or sent out.
Either way, there's always going to be a slight break in period, because the 30XPA steel is made to self workharden as the gun's used. That's when people say "loosened up". This cannot be avoided because certain areas such as angle where the barrel hood starts bolt rotation, the embutments, and a few other areas do need to self work-harden. It's just how the weapon's designed. If they made all the steel super hard, it'd be brittle, so they went the route they did.
Good luck O.P. & welcome to the addiction.

+1 for Thinking in stereotypes.lol, I'm sure you do.
It's likely best you don't read the post.... Or at least pretend not to have.
Ad hominem.
Since you seem so receptive to opposing viewpoints, I wont bother to correct your assumption about whom every single one voted for.

Please. There is a huge push at the teacher level for stricter standards and better teaching. The push for higher grades regardless of ability comes from admin, mainly because of No Child Left Behind. If the kids dont get grades, the admin doesnt get federal money. So they develop a system where the ONLY thing that matters is the grades. Whole classrooms are going nowhere while teacher tries to get Donny Dumbshit to the point where he will score what the school needs to get funding.
The push-in system driven by bleeding-hearts isnt working, some kids (due to genetics, or diet, or bad parenting) are gonna be Walmart greeters and burger flippers. Holding back future scientists and engineers to make them feel better is ridiculous, and the teachers realize this. First step is repeal NCLB, then break the teacher union that, like many unions nowadays, no longer represents its members and is only deticated to its survival.
A related problem is the teachers who disagree with the far-left tenents are usually targeted by the admin. Its not hard to get rid of a bad teacher, when the admin truly wants to.
[#coughcoughbullshit]
No child left behind alone isn't to blame. Our entire public educational system as a whole is FUBAR and should be abolished as far as I'm concerned. We have douchebags with no moral compass teaching children to conform, and pressing political ideologies.
The public educational system is nothing more than a system of indoctrination. If you're a tool of this system and this offends... Sorry. Truth hurts sometimes.
I'm 34 and it was fucked even back when I was in school.
When I as a naive child asked my teacher why jews didn't just say they weren't Jews during the Holicaust, my "teacher" just looked with saddness, because she would have been fired if she'd explained the definition of faith, yet they can teach little girls that they can kill children who can otherwise be supported and live, but it's not murder.
They can teach that sexual deviancy is the normal human way, and they tout theories as if they're proven fact. "Scientific Consensus", a laughable oxymoronic concept is taught to the masses as being substanative.
They teach that man made global warming is a huge issue, but never touch on the fact that we manipulate weather routinely with cloud seeding operations & chemical injections into the atmosphere to the point that there's laws on every state's books pertaining to such practices, let alone the HAARP system which can push the ionosphere 30 miles into outer space creating a vacuum and changing the course of the jet stream.
No... Instead, they say that "man made global warming is bad, and you should get your parents to support high taxation because it exists". Forget about open diallouge and giving the kiddos the full story. Hell, most adults don't even know their asses from holes in the wall, and if they ask the right questions, you can be damn sure they'll never be public school teachers.
IF, the public education system was anything other than a system to check who will conform to state mandates and attempt to control future dissent, the children would be given the complete story.
The proof's in the pudding, you just apparently drank the Koolaid.
As a child, they tried to drug me into silence so I'd quit asking questions that the "teachers" couldn't answer, but thankfully my parents saw through it and put a stop to it. Now when parents intervene, the state attempts to persecute parents. They wish to force these psychostimulants which over time permanently alter the person's serotonin levels on all children who don't buy the bullshit hook line and sinker.
Fuck that. YOU don't have MY family's best interests at heart, I do.
Therefore, I will decide how to educate my own children when I have them, thank you very much.

I love the two main girls in my life with all my heart & I'm down for the housemate thing, but I just don't see either as the type to have several kids, be hands on at raising them & homeschool, etc... They're both successful in their fields and value career advancement too much for that.They're already gonna pick me up regardless.
Facebook gets me laid.
Sorry... Keepin' it.
What happened to your Jewish lady friend?
As fucked up as our educational system has gotten as it's gone the indoctrination route of Carl Marx's dreams, I'll be damned if I have children only to have them be drugged & raised by strangers as robots for the state with no allegiance to God or Country, let alone family.
