  1. Can you post a decent pic on here from both sides..... I have 2 308's... A 16in TROMIX conversion and a Ver. 21.... I'd like to get another that is stock to do a Kushnapup conversion..... Yours looks sweet. opps I messed up and had lines going through my post... didn't mean to do that.
  2. I have 2 Saiga 308s... a 16 in TROMIX Conversion side folder with a AK 74 break attached and Mojo-peep sites that truly rock and can hit 2 liters at 300 yrds... The Mojo sites made BIG accuracy improvement. My Second is the Ver. 21 with a Burris 2-7 compact with ballistic reticle and Harris Med. length Bi-Pods... got 2 deer at 400 plus yrds past couple years with it... Question is, would you trade either for a Norinco M14...which would you trade and why? A Buddy has a Norinco M14 and has offered for either but I'm kinda stuck on the offer and not sure since I have soo many accessories and extr
  3. I have a TROMIX converted S-308 16 inch with TROMIX Folder. In the conversion he permanetly attached a 74 style brake with NO PROBLEMS, IT CAN BE DONE SUCCESSFULLY.....can't even tell it's welded on. It looks as if factory, never had any problems and works VERY well, especially rapid fire... Much more pronounced effect over my 7.62x39 AKs with a 74 stlye brake. I put a MOJO peep sight on it....(I HIGHLY RECOMMEND for the 308)....and can put them on a pie plate @ 300yrds all day long....with roughly hand size goups or smaller. I also have a Ver. 21 308 with a Burris 2-7 compact w/a balisti
  4. Where did you get your metal grill?? Or any ideas where one could find some with different patterns?? You did a good job!!
  5. Soon after getting out of the Military back in late 03....I ran into a CDNN inventory flier about sales and seen the S-12...FOR ONLY 229.00!!! At that time there were no accessories but I seen/could see the potential of the weapon being an AK platform...and ordered it that day. And then soon found the TROMIX site and have had that black russian sexy bitch by my side ever since...and even picked up 2 more, only 2 are TROMIX conversions though. I got my conversions done when the turn around was less than a month....and the conversion cost was a steal. I even ended up with a S-308 16 TROMIX c
  6. Thier dream would be a 2 Amemdement here in America that mirrored the gun-rights in Great Britan, Australia, Germany...... And The're slowly trying to get us there! That's why I'm selling ALL my guns, even all those eveil saigas... Jane Wayne once told Johnny Carson after a question from Carson, knowing Wayne was pro-gun.... Carson: "What are you gonna do John, when they come for you guns?" Wayne, thought for just a split second and firmly said: Wayne: "When they come for my guns, they'll be cold and loaded...When they get my guns, they'll be hot and empty.." John Wayne
  7. I have 3 Russian 8s (only ones trust my life to) and 1 MD drum and would trade that drum (even as AWESOME as it is, 0 problems) for another 8 or just buy the 8 straight out in a flash.... A drum can be replaced on a whim at ANY time right now..... A good source or even a line on a single Russian 8 will come few and far between. If you have a chance right now to get one and have waited even this long is crazy.... The price is high, but you get what you pay for and look how hard it is for these to make it into the US......uggghhhhh.
  8. I'll trade you back one of my wife's kidney's for that whole set-up.... I Likey!!
  9. I take offence to your term, reckless "Redneck". Do a search on the "Battle of Blair Mountain" to know what you are refering to. That is the white version of nigger. And untill "ANY of you uneducated PC knowitall's" understand what a "Redneck" is? Stop insulting people you dont have a clue what they stand for/Did for my people And you! Here is an example.........To quote "YOU"? "Today I was on a hike and a cougar jumped out of some bushes about 10 yards in front of me, it ran sideways in front of me trying to get away, I fired out of instinct because I am aware of these cats bec
  10. "and I doubt given the really marginal marksmanship instruction these last years that it is more than that unless dealing with the designated sharpshooter" I respectfully disaggree and can speak about my experience in the USMC as a Range Coach, Block NCO, and Marksmanship Instuctor (MOS 8531) That Marines don't have "marginal marksmanship instruction" by any means..... And would put money on it they have the best Marksmanship Program of any branch or service in all the world in Basic Training.....and likely beyond. We still Qualify annually at the KD (known distance) Range from distances
  11. Sounds like you've put WAY too much thought into this... Worrying about an intruder may not be your neighbor's only concern. As far as I'm concerned, if you're in my house uninvited you're as good as dead. And I don't care how I do it. Mossberg 500 8rnd., S-12 20rnd., Glock 26/27 15rnd or L1A1 30rnd. I'm shooting until it's empty. I can't even see my closest neighbor...... BUT they all know me VERY WELL and aren't concerned with how I stack shotgun mags. Meth/Pill/Crack heads are my and their biggest concern since we're in an isolated area.....NOT a heavily armed former Marine.
  12. I'll be reaching for my S-12 and not give a shit; and will try to literally remove the head from any perp entering my castle without my approval..... Where I live, the look of the weapon wouldn't sway a jury much around here. They'd probably smile inside for removing trash live that from the area. My first round (chambered) is a 3in 15 pellet 00 and in my Russian 8rd mag (what I trust my life to) are two 3in Steel BB shot (freakin' nasty damage to a few small critters I had to put down up close) followed my four more 3in 00 and finally two 1oz slugs.....just in case I need to penetrate a v
  13. I live in Fayette County (Fayetteville...about 1 hr away or less) and use Precesion Weapons Corp located here..... (Bradley WV to be exact) the Owner, Kent, is a good buddy and can do anything you'd want..... He's built me 2 AKs (AMD-65 and a Romy G)from Kits on Arsenal USA Receivers and has shot and looked over my 3 S-12s.... He has a web page too. I think it's: precesionweaponscorp dot com. Or just call him up and he'll tell you what he can do... 304-877-6596. Tell Him you spoke to Chris Pino and he recomended him. and He has the skills and tools to do it all.... Suppressors, deale
  14. Thanks Fellas.... I'm going for it!!! That is a hard one to pass-up....
  15. A NIB IZ 109 even trade for 1 Factory OEM Mag and $300..... I'd normaly jump right on this but I only have tree left....and he wantes the one thats never even been loaded or inserted... What would yall fellas do??? I only have about 90-100 invested in the Mag and have had it about 4 yrs. I just don't think I'll EVER get a chance to get another...!!! He even said 2 Factory 8rders and $100......I wouldn't consider that though.... I have 2 Tromix S-12 and want one for each.... Thanks for any advice!!
  16. I'd love to get one!!! Maybe he could do a limited run or someone can chim-in that has one/few that wants to sale....??
  17. OOORAH! Devil Dog!! Now about the question... I do feel a slight diff in Recoil between my S-12 with the Shark Brake and the other that has an OEM Full Choke Screwed on.... It may me more about the choke but there is a differnece to me... I think I've heard others say they feel or have recorded no difference... May depend on the shooter and how it's shouldered also. I say yes...but just slightly.... Noice...Yes, noticible loude.....
  18. U can use slugs with no worry. I assure you there will be no problems.....only a little less accuracy than through a smooth bore. Only use the Foster type (rifleing grooves on the slug) slugs though, not the Sabot...
  19. OOORAH, Ronswin!! Thanks for the better image... I ordered the print and should have it soon!! Also, Spartans were the Marines of that era!!! Semper Fi!!
  20. Pistol Fixer, "Next you stated " I HATE CHAIRBORNE WARRIORS!!!!" Now you don't know me and unless you are an OLD FART like me, I have seen and done things you can't even dream about. As a prior military sniper i was killing Communist before you may have been born." Response You don't know me either, so maybe I've done things you can only dream about too... I just don't feel the need to elaborate on here and choose not to discuss some things I've done, places I've been, things I've seen, shots fired (by me and at me), other services I've trained with or what ever have you... I think
  21. "I have been watching this back and forth about WM. if you have been on this forum very long at all, you should understand what has transpired with there products and lack of customer service. what i was waiting for was someone to hit S-12in WV with a question about his Tromix which he stated was not working properly. DID YOU BUY IT FROM TROMIX? DID YOU GIVE TROMIX A CHANCE TO CORRECT THE STATED PROBLEM? or did you just send it to Junk Guns are Us and let them whack on it? If you like WM's products and services then by all means give them your buisness, but don't slam Tromix products wit
  22. Yes, the WM was ran thu my other TROMIX with no problems.. I only used the Win Super Sport (grey shell, high Velocity) though..... My newest has 4 gas ports and I think that made a diff.... And Jeaux, do you own or have you ever tested a WM Drum....? If not, I don't think your 2 cents count for much..... I see the popular guys on here slam someone and then their buddies that suck their nuts jump on the wagon with no first hand experience... Please don't comment unless you have ANY experience with their products or service. I know COBRA is WELL educated and has the right to judge, but u
  23. Why all the hating?? At least they are on our side and trying to do soemthing for the S-12 market.... I'm sure they read these posts and will adjust accordingly. And I will admit, I do own a Wraitmaker and went for the "relaibility Service" cause there were problems initially...(I think it was worth it) Yes, it was expensive, but since then I have had NO failures.... The s-12 I sent them was an old school TROMIX conversion that only had three gas ports and was not corrected... They corrected, did the extra port, and did some polishng and smoothing...no grinding, and I've been 100% relia
  24. Ask Cobra.... He'll be easier to get in touch with and knows his shit.
  25. Thanks US Praetorian AND JarHead88!!! I just ordered one but my luck they're on back order....but thanks for the leads and info fellas... I'd probably gave up and never found it if it hadn't been brought up!! Sorry to Surly also for the hijack of the thread.... Those are for sure some beuty's you got there.... I'd almost like to make a generous offer but I have 3 S-308s already and the ole lady would probably kick me in the nuts too.... Off subject-- S-12, where did you get that avatar from. I have not seen that picture in about 30-35 years. When I was a kid my parents had a set o
