238shooter

All I can say is WOW! Started tonight looking for contact info on Mr. Pauly and didn't expect to find all of this. I love shooting my R and R Saiga for multigun competitions and I couldn't imagine what I would do if I were in you guy's shoes. Looks like I just need to polish my bolt myself and treat it like it is irreplaceable... Wait a minute, they are! Hope things work out for everyone and sorry you are all going through this.... Brian

I may need to clarify my quest for Saiga/Molot info. I have shot the Rem 1100's/Benelli's along with many 3-gunners for years with speed loaders. When the Saiga's first came out, they were not mag change friendly nor were they feed reliable. As with anything, they were not perfect the first time out, but it sure had potential if parts and machining could produce a winner. That time has come and this is the reason for my switch. Everyone has parts for the 1100. If you break the Saiga in a match today.... well we all know. Until these parts are there, which they are now, I was not wanting to swi

Saiga's are readily available in US which I am planning on getting one next week. If I could only get my hands on a Molot, I would have both to compare. I shoot 10+ major 3 gun matches a year that have prize tables of $100k-$250K and usually place in the top 5. If I do not switch to a mag fed shotgun, I see in the future going down a few places in finish. I am very jealous of those who can buy the Molot's and can only hope to own one myself some day. Can anyone confirm which Saiga is best to start with? I plan on getting it tricked out with parts being made here in US to help mag changes

Thanks for the quick feed back everyone. This is making my decision a little easier.

Hello All, I am new today to the Saiga Forum and from reading many postings, I am very impressed! I am an open shooter and compete at many of the larger 3-gun competitons around the US. Since I have so much time and money in my Remington 1100, I have been reluctant to give it up. Well, my News Years resolution is to try someting new. My issue is which one..... Saiga or Molot. I have started the search and wanted to see what others had to offer. Are there certain models that are better versus another? I have read that one brands does not require the rocking action for mag changes but either
