is it heavier than an SKS? wonder if the 16" is front heavy also

that's a serious accident just waiting to happen

now I got too many options, shoulda just bought the 5.45 when I had my mind set on it I'm thinking 308 now, saw it for a good price online and I do shoot way out there sometimes with my buddies they call coyotes near our place, the treeline where they emerge stretches out to a thousand yards or so

thanks for the replies! you guys got some great stuff I got a couple thousand 12 gauge shells in the garage, everything from bird shot to double ought to slugs, and I aint had a shotgun around here in over ten years maybe it's time thanks!

I mean your not dove hunting with them, right? How would the shorter version do with some heavy shot for plinking, and shooting jack rabbits and coyotes in the open desert I see coyotes usually 75 to 100 yards out Too far for the saiga 12? I seen the pictures, you guys have some nice weapons! Thanks Sorry for the mispelled title, I'm typing on my phone... Big thumbs... Little buttons

Thanks guys if I'm going to shoot x39 I'll just use the SKS, unless you have a good reason or think the saiga in x39 is just so much better I wanted a lighter, flatter shooting gun for what I do... I'm thinking of building up an AR, but for now I want something cheap and ready to go that's why I'm thinking the 5.45, it won't be redundant when I build up the AR and it is the current round in that platform I don't envision cleaning my gun with water anytime soon so I just won't shoot corrosive stuff hey what does a saiga 12 go for? BVamp... could you let me know a price on the 5.

that's what I was thinking I was ready to buy a 5.45 from one Atlantic if they have them in stock, but I thought I should check with you saiga guys first is the accuracy anywhere near an AR15 with your 5.45's?

I like .308 also but the saiga in .308 is getting pricey. and I'm already getting a permanent sling groove in my shoulders from the SKS, how heavy is the saiga 308?

thanks I've really been considering that one since I don't have anything in .22x right now but I've been reading here and the guys are saying they're getting rust from the surplus stuff I clean my rifle about once every couple years I guess I could shoot the silver bear or something instead of the bulk tins

Howdy and sorry if this question has been beat to death I'm looking to buy a saiga but I'm not sure what caliber I got an SKS in 7.62x39 with Tapco furniture with a red dot that I like... it's a real good shooter so I'm not sure if I should get the saiga in 7.62x39 or choose a different caliber like .223, .308, or 5.45 I live in Kalifornia and my shooting is all humping through the desert plinking, shooting jack rabbits and an occasional coyote shots are anywhere from 25 feet to infinity what say you? thanks!
