  1. I have yet to fire my Saiga because there isn't a local rifle range to go to. What exactly do the numbers on the sight refer to? Yards??
  2. Check out the SKS rifles with scout scopes here: http://scoutscopes.com/index.html The Photo Gallery on the site has some nice pictures. This may give you a affordable scout rifle.
  3. I was picking up some ammo yesterday at my local gun store and checked out the Taurus PT24/7. Anyone here have one?? I have a Taurus PT-99 currently. It seems like I really need to grip it tight to steady it when firing. I like the ergonomic feel of the PT and was curious if anyone here had one.
  4. I picked up my Saiga, used from a store for $230.00. It looks brand new. I've yet to shoot it though.
  5. I'm in the Charlotte, NC area. I picked it up at a local gun shop. He was selling 20 round boxes for $3.00. He had a case of 750 rounds lying there. Since I've purchased some other stuff from him before I was able to get it for $100.00 out the door. I don't know if he has anymore cases left.
  6. Also try here: http://scoutscopes.com/index.html I haven't tried these yet but I'm interested in this type for my Saiga and future SKS.
  7. Thanks for the reply. It would appear then that I have the Ulyanovsk in the blue and white box marked MIL-SPEC. I was hoping to get some Wolf ammo to before a trip to the range next weekend. Most online places are out of it so when I saw that this local guy had some picked up a case of it. Has anyone here fired any of this?
  8. I was going to order some ammo online but alot of the sites were out, so I ran down to the local gun shop and picked up some that's labeled as Mil-Spec made at the Ulyanovsk Machine Plant. I think it's Bear Mil spec but I'm not sure. Can anyone here ID this for me and is it any good??
  9. Hi everyone. I picked up a Saiga 7.62x39 the other day. It's my first rifle and I'm looking forward to taking it to the range and checling it out. I've been going back through this forum to read up on it. I don't plan on doing any modifiications other than adding a scope which leads me to my question. Can someone confirm to me that the rifle comes with a side optical mounting rail? It appears that mine does but the manual that I recieved doesn't mention it. Also I would appreciate suggestions on must read forums or web sites. Like I said above this is my first rifle. I have a 9mm handgun
  10. Totally left eye dominant. I can barely close it. I think due to a backyard football game accident as a kid. Not to be gross but I had to get my right eyelid stiched back together and I had to wear an eye patch for a few months. So my left eye took over.
  11. Hi. newbie to this forum. My local gun shop can get Saiga's so I'm going to be getting a 7.62x39. I'm right handed but have to shoot like a lefty. I've never fired an AK before. Am I going to be pelted with shells if I shoot lefty???
