R and R Saiga 12 Bolt Carriers - First batch is ready to test!
The_Caged_Bird replied to Doug Hartley's topic in Saiga-12
I subscribe to the same mantra as Montec. I've seen an AR barrel turn white from heat, and I've loaded down my S-12 with so much west texas clay mud that it ceased to function. My father always said that if you want to find the weak point in something, just hand it to me. I break things in a most spectacular manner... Exhibit A: The engine that this piston was in STILL runs... See? So send it to me, if it can be broken (through "normal" use), I'll do it... -
It's threads like these... smh...

To answer the OP, hopefully you're lucky. You will more-than-likely have problems running Winchester bulk, so I'd stick to Federal bulk pack at a bare minimum if I were you. If you notice any problems running that, remove the quad-rail and see if it runs better. Some quads have been known to hinder performance since they "clamp" onto the gas system. Eventually, you're going to give in to peer pressure and do a full conversion. It's really easy and makes the weapon a lot easier to handle. Basically, the phrase I've coined fits here nicely: All Saigas are different, like snowflak

Gunfixer is the guy's name, the plug WILL NOT "fix" an undergassed gun!
-
Ah, well, that would work too, albeit I'm not very fond of them...
-
Well, fire only one shot per COMPLETE trigger pull and the ATF won't come and butt-rape you...
-
Nice job!

FREE SAIGA 12 CONVERSION HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY.

I wouldn't mind that rail... -
I just modified the factory wire as far as axis pin retention goes. I think it works a lot better than any shepherd's crook or plate and it's super easy to assemble and disassemble...
-
I run the Krebs safety lever as well, not really sure what Fourbux is talking about, but I have been happy with it since day one. I'll never run a Kalash without one...

The ports aren't supposed to be 90 degrees to the bore...

Cool, I'm down, we're both going to wear thick leather coats 21 feet away facing each other. Aim center mass, as will I, with your birdshot and me with my buckshot. We both fire on the count of three, deal? I can handle the pain if you can handle the whole dying thing...

The only way I've PERSONALLY found for an AR stock to work well on an AK is with an optics mount on the side rail with some kind of optic. It's not built for proper cheek weld on an AK.
-
Wow!

Which hinge and folding stock are the strongest/most durable?
The_Caged_Bird replied to beachman's topic in Saiga-12
Says the guy on an AK website... Think about it for a bit, my analogy was based on the skillset and equipment required to do both. But, if you prefer: That would be like watching someone remove the fuel injection system to replace it with a carb without modifying the fuel lines or changing the fuel pump. There, now do you wanna stop now pumpkin? My point is, it will still work but not like the original... -
Quite the opposite, Bob. Just answering your abrasive personality with mine.

Wow, you're comparing someone converting a weapon with first flight? Nice analogy... It would be more fitting if you said that this guy was drilling out the jets on his carburetor whilst others were "yodeling" about a 12.5:1 air/fuel ratio... Nah, I couldn't POSSIBLY know from experience, that's preposterous!!! -
You say Rem Express eh? I guess I'll price a Lot of those...
-
Yeah, and they suck almost as bad as birdshot. Keep it simple folks! It's literally worked for centuries. A white tail is the same basic weight of a man, I highly doubt that an emu would get taken down by birdshot much less a man and it's been PROVEN in this very thread!
-
I agree, when it's running right, it functions no matter who is holding it or how...

The suspense is killing me!!!! -

The_Caged_Bird replied to beachman's topic in Saiga-12
No, I'm saying you'll have problems like that when you put a diesel engine in a corvette. Will it work? Yeah, will it be the same as designed? NO! Don't be so sensitive, Sally... -
THIS is DEFINITELY illegal, one shot per trigger pull folks! Is it? The idea is basically a trigger that is pulled in such a way that your finger then pulls a second trigger, in that way its one pull motion but two triggers being pulled. Yes, it would have to be two seperate triggers, otherwise the weapon fired twice during the full pull range of the first trigger.
