I have the Zhukov hand guards on both of my Saigas. They fit without any modifications. Very easy install.

Finally got a buck this weekend.

We've been shooting more pigs than deer.

Disregard. I replied to another thread and somehow it ended up in here.

I also have the Stormwerkz rail on my M85 and I'm very pleased with it. If you can operate a drill you can easily install it. No, it doesn't co-witness but if you use a quality optic you won't have to worry about it. I have a Primary Arms advanced micro dot on mine right now. I like it. PS. I hope to get an M92 to go with my M85 in the near future.

I changed the red dot and flash light mount since I last posted. I put the reflex red dot on a shotgun and put a PA advanced red dot on the M85. I also switched out the light mount to one that I can remove quickly. I moved the Magpul light mount over to a rifle.

Get some contact cement and black leather from a furniture store, and you have something worth leaving on. Great idea.

I put some pipe insulation on my Bonesteel stock until I find something else. May have to try one of those SKS cheek rests.

Blood near hind leg is exit wound.

I ended up with two .223 Saigas. One has an AR mag adapter (which works great) and the other is stock. The stock one Is NIB. I'm Hoping to get the stock one converted in 2015. I'm not an AR guy so my Saigas are my .223 rifles. Being able to use AR mags makes things a whole lot easier. This summer I picked up one of the Yugo M85 pistols and it also uses AR mags.

Which adapter did you order?

I know regular AK's have notches in the receiver and that's where the bump on this safety lever would click into. I really don't want to grind notches into my receiver just to use this safety lever. Some of the other Krebs safeties have the bump positioned for Saigas. This safety was advertised that it was for Saigas on the site I purchased it from so I assumed the bump was in the correct position for Saigas. I would rather screw up the safety lever trying to modify it than screw up my receiver.

Looks great. Have you taken it to the range and tested that muzzle brake yet? How well does it work?

Thanks for the tip. It's on the back burner right now but when I get around to it I'll give it a shot.
