I think he ended up getting it for 375 or so. Just got here today. He works with me as a lathe hand so he is pretty pumped about modding too..

very nice, cant wait!

Rockwell has 3 different charts. A, B, & C. C chart is the hardest and generally tops out at 65 for carbon materials. Rc 42 C chart would be uncuttable with standard carbide tooling. You can take the reciever and get it tested for hardness. It leaves a littl dent but nothing to bad. 4140 and 4340 are very heat treatable. 4340 I think can max out at Rc 60 C.

The three coatings (TiN) Titanium Nitride "electric yellow" (TiCN) Titanium Carbo Nitride "reddish pink to black" (TiAlN) Titanium Aluminum Nitride "bluish/bronze to black" In recent developments in manufacturing 2 coatings have surfaced in the past 7 years. In the past 3 years they have been working with multi layered coatings. In the field of coatings you have Macro and micro. I am only speaking of the micro or nano coatings because of the specific nature people on this forum would use it for. Properties I am listing the properties off the t

Iron has massive amounts of carbon which in most cases is magnetic "I think".

I was hoping to get some info on the gas tube before I do any modifying. Apart from the threads can the gas tube be drilled without hitting any internal obstruction? Is there a custom or alternet gas tube for the saiga-12 that is a better piece of equipment than the original tube? Is there a company or individual that can strip the coating off the weapon without damage to the base material? I would assume a chemical strip. Battle: Endmills headed your way come friday. Had to wait for the regrinds to get back. Will PM you the tracking + I am including enough funds for work and materia

Thanks bro, exactly what i needed.

Does anyone have anything better? I assume the 45 degree starts at .087 from the edge at 0 degree from the top then a flat of .034 then the other 45 degree starting at .1205 from 90 degree and go to the neck at .2295 from 90 degree. Why cant engineers ever do a print right. There is tolorance all over this thing. Thats why I ask if anyone has another drawing of this rail. Calculations at nominal are way off. I plan to make it a littl fat for calculated wear. If anyone has more info I would be glad to hear it:)

If you get hit with a shotty 12 w/ heavy loads, your going down. I dont give a shit if your wearing a tank. 10 feet away and it should shread the kevlar and put you on your ass. Not to mention stray load going into your neck and face area at 10 feet. I highly dout I would be the second bastard sticking my head down that hallway. The energy created by 000 buck I think is higher than that of the slug. So if no penetration would happen you still have to calculate the energy in force foot pounds. I believe its over 1000 foot pounds for 000 buck mag load. The armor better have some magical way up

cool bro, glad you liked them.

PM sent:D

Exactly. anything like that for the Saiga12 that anyone knows about? I have surfed the net for them & never seen any. Sounds like this would be the first attempt of such a thing (that I know of anyway) I'm afraid I don't think so. There's no real tactical advantage to it on the AK platform, certainly not on a shotgun, and "cool factor" can only drive manufacturing so far. The stabilize the back end of the rail you'd either have to stick it to the dust cover, or side mount...or SOMETHING. It depends on what material you use. If you would make it out of Inconel 718 you

If your interested I would like to get a pistol grip for a Saiga 12. Would like it out of Black Walnut root burl ill do the finish acrylic/poly. I think I know a mill that can get the material. Be glad to pay well for all your troubles!!! If you are interested I will PM you with the details. Pay by Paypal. Sincerely Equinox

Do other people know that you give sexual propositons in your PM's? the answer is YES! edit: O, and is my forearm ready yet?

Yes, that is the closest thing Ive seen. Will extend further and be a lower profile. Not so bulky. The material im using doesnt require such a large bracket as aluminum does. If US optics would do it the material would be 7075 AlTi Alloy. The ultimak is more of a target in the idea of size. Yep, your correct. Thats sweet. As a note. The only way it could be offered to peeps in this forum is if i do it thru US Optics. I worked 3902 hours last year. I would only be able to make at the max two of them "one for AlG, he sold me my saiga" and nobody would want to buy the material anyway
