  1. Hello I noticed the Saiga 7.62x39 barrell length is 16".

    I thought legal barrell length was 18".

    (For State of Michigan.)

    Does anyone know for sure.

    Or is there a Flash Supressor or Muzzel brake on the market to add

    a few inches to the Saiga 7.62x39??

  2. Thanks Sheik, those are great suggestions.

    I did field strip my Saiga today, so now I can

    see what you mean in all you said.

    That hammer spring looks complicated, I'll

    leave that part for the gunsmith. but the firing

    pin should be easy to replace. Sounds like a good

    way to test loading by hand, to see about the misfire.

    So that firing pin from Tapco for a regular AK47 will

    probably be an exact fit for my Saiga 7.62 right?

    Thanks again

  3. Hey Thanks for the reply,

     

    Did I mention the rifle is new, I talked to a gun smith

    yesterday. He said it doesn't matter if it is new.

    may need new firing pin.

    But your options make more sense, cause you don't want

    my business.

    I haven't taken anything apart yet. maybe factory used too much oil, etc

    I'll clean it up and have another go at it.

    By the way is the hammer spring the firing pin spring?

  4. Hello,

     

    This is B. Lee Handy, I finally took my new Saiga 7.62 x 39 to the

    outdoor rifle range today.

     

    It fires great. Fairly tight groups at 50 yards without a scope.

     

    BUT, I'm getting some misfires.

     

    When I compare the fired round shells with the misfired rounds

    I notice the firing pin is not indenting the misfired rounds

    as much as the fired rounds.

     

    Is anyone familiar with this problem??

     

    Firing Pin Spring?

  5. Ok can anyone update me on the gun-rifle laws in michigan.

    I haven't checked in awhile, or know where to check.

    I remember a few years ago they stupid restrictions on

    flash suppressors, or large magazines or certain combinations.

    So are 10 round magazines legal?

    I suppose if hunting you can only use 5 round magazine, right?

    If anyone has a list of current gun laws in michigan would you

    let me know how to find them.

    Thanks
