You tease!

Pics??? Pics???

I would love quality 54r mags. Even just 10 rounders. I really dont want to invest in sgm mags if these are being made...

Thank you!!! I was lookin for aditional pin or something holding in the extracter. Lol Cant wait to get home and try this!

Fun little guns! But the o.p. took it to another level. That thing must turn heads and start conversations all the time.

What im trying to do is remove the extractor for a cleaning. Last thing i want to do is monkey with it and mess something up as it runs pretty decent. Hopefully some one can walk me through it! Thanks all!

Thanks for the response. Im really surprised there isint much info out there on these good or bad.

I did a search. Cant find much info. Just want to know if these thing run well and hold up. I like the sgm mags, wondering if its the same quality.

Thanks guys. To be honest I may not have noticed it when it was brand new. It is mice to know there is metal in there though!

So I picked up a sgm mag and after the first range trip I noticed some of the plastic is already worn away on the follower. Only a small spot but I can see some metal. Sorry I don't have a good camera but it's on the bump that the first round sits next to. It works fine and I had no problems. Just wondering if this wear is typical and what I can expect over time.

I have four 1st gen ones. I love them. The weight has never been an issue for me. They have always functioned flawlessly. My only wish is that I picked up at least 2 more 1st gens when they were available. I trust the seconds are just as good but would like to keep them all the same.

DUDE !!!! THATS AWESOME!!! You did a great job. I imagine you would have to really look for it to notice it. I agree. My thinking has always been if it can be fixed then why not?

Hey thanks again guys! Took my sweet time with a dremel and it fit fine. Have to wait for the next range day for a function test. I'm sure it will be fine though. The look is growing on me too. Still kind think CSS could have handled it different. But as long as it works I'm cool with it.

Sometimes californians buy mag kits and add these permanently. "glued or rivited floor plate is common" http://www.magazineblocks.com/magento/products/magblock-kits/saiga-223-10-30-magblock.html They create 10 round mags with 30 round body's "for looks". I'm not sayin that's what the guy is doin but could be.

To be honest that's how I felt at first. Then they tell me that they will be out for "months". Basically they left me in a position where I either waste my money and buy somewhere else or deal with it. Looks like I can't at least make it work. Thanks guys as always!!!

Exactly...

I recently ordered a non vented gas tube from CSS as I've read there the easiest to fit. Sadly I received the vented tube. After emailing them i was told that the reason they sent me the wrong one was they were out of stock of the one I ordered for a couple of months and that this one would work fine. So before I open the package and start filling away will this tube even work or should I send it back and wait months?

Move we can always use another gun in the SE Why move, we're winning the fight here. Up to a few years ago EBR's of all types were forbidden, now there's millions of them bought and sold everyday. We have build partys all over the state. The Saiga 12 is illegal......uh nope, we have thousands of those too. Hellraiser called me about this, dude you haven't even seen that damn gun yet and your stressing about it. Everything I told you over the phone was echoed in this thread. Chill out and don't worry about it. Well I seen it now and it's an eyesore! Lol. All I'm sayin is if it

I understand everyone's concern. However I'm not intending to cover up serial numbers or the current importer. The way i see it you'd be just cleaning up what the new importer already did. The new importer is the one that obliterated the old importers name. That being said I'm gonna just hold off till i got more info since I do live in a commie state.

That sounds like a winner for sure. When I refinish my receiver I want to get rid of the: READ OWNERS MANUAL BEFORE USE and the EAA CORP COCOA, FL It makes my gun less evil, and thats not cool. Kinda reminds me of a ruger! Lol! Have you done it or seen it? That's what I was thinking at first. I don't actually have mine in hand yet. However I was just talking to a buddy who said his was more raised then engraved. I'm not sure how that happens. That would explain how you guys ground it down. I was thinking if it was "engraved" it's ju

Thanks guys! Any pics would be appreciated! For some reason I was thinking it needed to be filled in first. But it's more raised then any thing?

100% percent correct sir. But in my neck of the woods they have been gone for quite sometime. Wouldn't welding effect the heat treating on the reciver?

I've seen alot of thread talking about methods but yet to find a success story.

Just out of curiosity any one have a good method for covering the old importer mark? I know I shouldn't worry about looks but it's a bit of an eyesore. I'm afraid of trying bondo as it may fall out with recoil.

Hey thanks again!
