Gun History After reading the following historical facts, read the part about Switzerland, twice. In 1929, the Soviet Uunion established gun control. From 1929 to1953, about 20,000,000 dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. ------------------------------ In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. ------------------------------ Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945

there is a reason for this. It's so you can press the tape up against something or hook it to achive the same messurement. If you notice on any proper tape the "slop" will equal the thickness of the metal end piece. I myself prefer to burn 10".

Agreed!

BEFORE YOU MAKE ONE STEP TOWARDS CONVERTING: shoot it first! Make sure it's running right, don't waste money on something that could (albiet slim chance) need service/warranty. Better safe than sorry.But yea use google to search the forum ( the site's internal search is less than desired) do the reading before you do the leg work. Really, if you can change your breaks you can convert a siaga. GO FOR IT. Everybody here will help. ENJOY. and expect to buy more, they're addictive.

You can always use the search function to look up "Vodka Special" which there are several threads that include really good pics. But what your looking for is when you remove the gas plug, and the puck there should be several small holes in a recessed portion of the gas block meeting the barrel. Use a pen light to look for the holes. There should be 3-4 of them. If you can't see them try using a paper clip to feel around for them ( you can look inside the barrel(be sure it's unloaded first) and see the paper clip potruding. If you've got those 3-4 holes completely unobstructed you don't have a

Saigachusa! Where did you get that cool ass muzzle break?!

Hey, let's get this straight. I put it against the tree because I'm a big puss. No, I put it against the tree to reduce the forces on the front mag catch. All of those videos of me firing off of a tree was with prototype mags of greatly reduced strength compared to production mags. I did it to keep them from coming apart and breaking, even then it didn't prevent it all the time. The rest of this isn't pointed at you either but just some answers on the question. Weight does matter. First, how a gun is held will affect the function of the gun regardless if it is gas operated. In theory

I find this to be far more likely senario. Though the odds are astronomicaly slim, it's still the closest thing to the end of since the dino's clock ran out. http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/apophis/ 2009-Apr-29: This animation illustrates how the unmeasured physical parameters of Apophis bias the entire statistical uncertainty region. If Apophis is a RETROGRADE rotator on the small, less-massive end of what is possible, the measurement uncertainty region will get pushed back such that the center of the distribution encounters the Earth's orbit. This would result in an impact probability much hig

Mine seems to run best when its a little dirty. So every few 100 rnds I run a20gave bore brush through the gas chamber and check the ports for obstructions, and call it good.

Well I got the 556R back from sig yesterday, and got her out to the range today, and WHAT A DIFFRENCE! The report from the gunsmith was vauge to say the least read " Corrected problems, fired 20 rnds preformed normaly". Upon receiving I broke it down, inpsected parts to see what had been done. I could see that the entire lower was diffrent first off. ( Honestly I would have though the issues had more to do with the upper assembly) And some work had been done on the rails, as i could see some of the pin welds were more pronounced than before. The new folding stock has a metal clasp and no longe

I had the card protection work in reverse on me. Before a trip to Brazil I activated my card for international use at a local branch of my bank. Well after about two weeks of using it somehow corperate got involved and saw the forgein charges and deactivated my card WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME! At a little road side resturant outside of Macae, after dinning big and fat on steak and beer, my card doesn't just get declined, but shows as STOLEN. Well the owner of the resturant wasn't too happy, but luckily I got through on the 800# and got my card reactived and meal paid for (with a fat tip) just as the

Pick up a recoil buffer.

How heat resistant is it?

Saiga's love high brass, put a few dozen down range before you try any light loads. I would use the 200-300 round guide line for break in.

It's nice to see somebody talking sense without emotion. Good advice, sounds like the words of a sucessful businessman. I know most people don't want to simply take customers money and offer nothing in return, but it offend ends up that way. Whats worse is companies that just don't give a shit, once they get your money. I've not had any dealings with any of the individuals mentioned in this thread, but reading it has definately ruled out the possiblity of me ever doing it with a few.

I don't know how people just assume shit's going to sort it's self out. Personally, I'm always worried my orders won't get processed because of some clerical error, or missing info. But then again, maybe I'm not cautious, just impatient. When I get a new toy, I want that bastard in my hands ASAP. Like hell I'm gonna just leave my money in sombody else's hands waiting for me to ask for my purchase.

Just the screw, man. All you need to do is use a screwdriver and pry on it a bit( work a little on both sides keep the gap between the forgrip and the receiver even), or you can use a little piece of wood or plastic as a cushion to tap on it with a hammer, so you don't scratch it all up. But first just try wiggling it back and forth, sometimes that works. Also Carolina Shooter Supply sales pucks, ranging from somwhere around 30 to 10 I think for the basic tapco verison. Besides, the puck is one of the easiest things to replace counting toward 922r, making you compatiable to use high capacity U

Wish in one hand shit in the other, see which fills up first. Seriously, this should be in the WANT TO BUY( you have to be a contributor to post in that section) because you'll be lucky to find a used one at that price. May I suggest you look for something on gunbroker or read the Want To Sale section, maybe you'll get lucky. Oh and welcome to the forum!

I have absolutely, no practical use for this. But for some reason I want a set for every one of my family memebers, why must you temp me?!

Interesting isn't it. I machined one for my s12 and it's actualy .042" longer than the orginal russian puck, bu the groves are the same dimesions apart as well as depth and width. And seems to have no change in performance. ( Only made the puck to replace on russian part) The gun always worked fine. My question to you, is does your gun suffer from this diffrence? If not who cares.
