  1. Looking to maybe sell or trade my Saiga 12. First the bad news. I suck at painting so paint job isn't perfect but it isn't that bad either. I used KG gun kote and it matched up pretty well with the rest of the shotgun. I only painted the receiver nothing else was touched. Second The holes from the imported trigger group isn't plugged, I bought the plugs from Carolina shooters supply but they wouldn't fit so I never bothered drilling the holes out bigger to fit. Along with holes there are two rivet size hold on the bottom of the receiver than I'd planned on filling but never did. And last pr
  2. thanks guys, I just ordered the Vplug so hopefully will fix the over gassed issue.
  3. thats what I was thinking but wasn't sure, thanks hammer!
  4. I'm curious what this puc would do in my over gassed saiga 12, I wonder if it would smooth the action out any or possible make it shoot even harder. I'd planned to get one when I do my conversion but since I've found my gun runs alittle hot I'm kinda thinking it'd make it even hotter. Have you had any experience with the puc's in over gassed saigas?
  5. seems this has happened to me, I honestly have no clue why I have a -2 rep. So the rating systems completely gone? I'm wondering if I'll be stuck with -2 rating forever? Other than that I don't mind the new layout too bad, although I can't figure out how to change my avatar that's kinda weird. There now your a -1 yay! thanks bud! now I'm not totally bad haha. heck I didn't even noticed I'd been hit til was looking trying to change my avatar last night. So I think the new layout is kinda growing on me, of course I'm still pretty new here so the change wasn't as drastic for me as
  6. I have one, be sure to lock tite the screws holding the rails on or atleast inspect them, was either the recoil or a drunk machinist stripped out the holes on my side rail on the mount. I'm 100% certain it wasn't me because I never removed the rail, and after about 200 rounds I noticed the flashlight I had attached was angled down so I took it off and one of the screws holding the rail fell off, turned out both screw holes where stripped and the threads on the screws where shot. So just be sure to inspect it really good if you choose to get one. outside of that I really liked the mount, I
  7. someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the borders are built into the design to accommodate different screen resolutions and for different devices like ipads and smartphones, long story short I don't think we can change it. heh I didn't even notice them til I read your post, guess my eyes adjusted well or I'm going blind haha

  9. thanks for all the advice guys! I'll be getting a vplug this week for sure, I thought it was weird it kicked so hard on low brass but it's been alittle over a year since I've shot a saiga and I didn't shoot it much then due to the guy being low on shells and I didn't want to shoot all his rounds up so I didn't even think about it being over gassed especially since I was completely expecting it to be under gassed. I was planning on slapping a vplug in anyways just wasn't expecting it to be so soon haha. Can't wait to get this baby converted either, don't think I've been this happy with a
  10. here you go; http://www.dinzagarm...12/bor1220.html Dinzag's been making them for some time now. oh cool! thanks for the link
  11. what did you use for handguard retainers? I have an extra set of AK wood furniture that I wouldn't mind boring out and saving a few bucks when doing my conversion, just hadn't figured out what I'd do about the retainers.
  12. So after reading your post I inspected the rear trunnion alittle closer and sure enough there is a perfect imprint of the rear of the bolt on the trunnion, is that normal with these? I also noticed yesterday that the dust cover is kind of a pain to get back on, I just figured where it was new and it has the little button that it made it alittle tougher, all I had to compare was my beat to death WASR 10. Anyways I figured I'd throw a buffer on the recoil spring, the buffer I had was thick and black it didn't look like my blackjack buffer I have, anyways I figured for sure once I put it on
  13. Finally got my very own saiga 12, ordered from CSS and got a very nice shotgun I do believe. haven't had the chance to really put some rounds through her yet but so far she's shooting low brass right out of the box! I had a box of winchester xpert target and game load thats 1300fps, their not the value pack so can't confirm if it shoots that yet but will give them a try here soon. I shot 6 rounds of the winchester stuff last night and it cycled all 6 without any problems and the gas setting was threaded all the way in and set 1 which if I understand the manual correctly limits the gas for
  14. Got my Saiga 12 yesterday, great deal and great customer support. Shipping was super fast I honestly didn't expect to have it so soon. Thanks!!!
  15. I guess that means all my x54R surplus is illegal for sale by all the surplus outlets I bought it from. 95% of the Russian/Hungarian/Romanian/Polish is steel cored. The AP designation was given to it by the Libtard Media and Libtards in general. It's no more armor piercing than any other steel cored ammo out there. AP rounds have a special hardened tip to them, and are designated with a black tip( I know....I have some AP rounds). The Chicom steel core lacks this tip. Yes, it was banned from import by Clinton, just like other Chinese weapons. It is still 100% legal for sale, as my
