baraban7.62

you have two options (in my opinion, since its an AK) slant break, or 74 style break

if u want to keep ur grips from heating up, invest in wood furniture for ur SGL, trust me it helps, plus makes it look very authentic

Most shooters cannot out shoot a good AR. You never realized how accurate it was until what, getting trigger time behind an AK? i guess thats what it took for me, but my saiga is not finished yet, so i gotta change out the FSB and sight leaf on it, so its not zeroed yet till that's done

oh my god! i shot my old AR today, the one that i sold, i was teaching the guy how to use it, i never realized how accurate it was, but i still am so happy that i do not have it anymore, please dont take this the wrong way

A lot of the questions you have right now will be answered when you have the weapon in hand. The cuts are already in the receiver and when you take the bottom plate off you will uncover this. If you try to put a standard AK mag in the receiver, you will see what part of the mag catch doesn't fit that needs to be filed. The first conversion won't take more than 2 hours (even if you are as cautious as I am) as long as you have the right tools (a decent drill/drill press, dremel or files, and bench grinder - oh and don't forget the zip tie for the hammer & spring). After you do yo

it is not complete yet, but half way there

please tell me thats a Saiga on the left, (fully converted to a AKM) PLEASE!

i want to find a ribbed cover for my 7.62, but i tried my friend cover from a Romanian Draco pistol, it fits, but not snug, and when you cycle the action, something hits on the inside, plus its serialized, any advice?

does not a cover become loose (or move at all) with time, so doesn't that make the optic kinda useless?

You've taken your first step into a much larger world, young Skywalker Which Saiga are you going to get first? I have already posted a few posts about my Saiga 7.62 that i'm converting to AKM, did the pistol grip, now changing out the FSB, Gas block and putting on the lower hand guard retainer, waiting to get it back from gun smith, as soon as i get it back, imma put a 14x1 LH thread on and put a slant break on, than maybe i'll get a ribbed cover for it to give it the last authentic looking piece

Yes, of course, i loved my M16 in the military, and i loved my AR-15 as a civilian, but i think its time to move on to the Rock solid AK now

I have had the AR for a year or so, and ever since i bought a saiga 7.62 and my friend bought an SGL21 i wanted to compare the AR vs AK, and to me there is no comparison, night and day. And i finally got rid of it

i got a PM (makarov), Saiga 7.62, soon will get a Tigr, and a Saiga 12, i sold my kimber and AR, and I'm so happy with the decision now

Thank god i sold my AR-15 last night, from now on I'm doing only Russian weapons.

Thx, actually i found mine, i thought i left it at the range, but i guess i took it out, left it in the garage, but thx for the input guys

does it fit the original cleaning kit that the saiga comes with?

I need to find a saiga 7.62 cleaning rod

Lost mine, I'm looking for: Buffer retainer Buffer retainer spring

thank you

The little spring and a metal button that hold the recoil spring in place, anyone know what that little spring is called? and where i can get it? I lose mine, it shot out when i was taking my rifle apart

What state you from?

WTS?

Anyone want to sale his Saiga 12? for how much?

to the OP:> I would personally have your rifle parkerized before applying paint how do i parkerize? sorry never done anything like that so i dont even know what it is

if i paint the gas block and the FSB will it withstand the heat?
