  1. 1 hole MAY have about a half paperclip overhang blockage. 

    I guess it's hard to say after only shooting 120 rounds.

  2. Gun was all clean and oiled and new before shooting, but i did not check the gas ports after firing until now and a considerable amount of dust was sitting in the tube and around the edges of the puck, the material that is larger looks like pieces shaved ever so slightly from the magazine's. 

     

    Magazine shaving normal? About a penny sized amount of dust dumped out. Maybe my problem is solved haha 


    Besides all the material sitting in there the gas ports are not stuffed full of carbon 

  3. It's a new old Saiga. I guess it's been owned for 1 year with no firing, then I buy it and didn't receive stock parts, maybe I will later. 

    I thought that no doubt this gun would run flawless the way it's set up and it was the opposite. 

     

    Is the auto plug suppose to be even near to maxing out adjustment? 

     

    Maybe no more federal target load for me 

  4. It was bought like that from a forum member who claimed it was brand new and had extras installed. Some, if not all the parts on the gun were used.  He did not send factory plug or puck so I can't say how it runs with them although I hope he can locate them for me. 

     

    I didn't shoot any 3" but the slugs I did have seemed to of have cycled better. 

    The shells were getting stuck on the bottom lip of the barrel it seemed. Some needed to be pulled up or wiggled to get in 


    Everything is oiled lightly 

  5. First time taking the saiga shooting. Picked up some federal 1 1/8 oz, 1oz super x slugs and estate 00 buck which I had the most problems with.

     

    I was having more failure to feeds than fTE's. I have 4 gas ports which are aligned just okay, tax 47 auto plug, reduced recoil spring, CSS puck. The auto plug adjustment is maxed out. I'm assuming I have more problems.

     

    Is over sizing the gas ports overkill if it is not what MY saiga needs?

    What can I do tomorrow to get this thing running like a champ.

  6. in Nevada you have 30 days to return a car if there are problems or you arent satisfied for whatever the reason being.

    3500 is outrageous, but idk what kind of car and im assuming its new and thats another problem.


    get a pre 2000 vehicle(pre '97 is cheapest period/OBD1), do a jdm motor swap for a fraction of the cost of another POS american motor with improved japanese internals......

     

    just a suggestion.

    dodge dodge's?

    i will.

  7. i have several drums, still wrapped. is there anywhere to buy an adapter plate to use the drums on the VEPR12 or must i make my own?

     

    then again i just came across MD's double stack post so maybe i'll stay with saiga.

     

    are VEPR rifles better than SAIGA's just like the shotgun scenario? im thinking next purchase will be an AK rifle

  8. i have been finding vepr12's and saiga's to be about the same price right now but i have already invested into drums for the s12.

     

    would it be worth modding to accept md 20? wait for the 25 round drum? stick with a converted saiga?

     

    what are your opinions here? im buying monday or tuesday.......

     

     

  9. i had a 4way that fit my motegi wheels with the special lugs.

     

    check les schwab and see if you can get a socket to do the job and you may have to stick with a 1/2" drive ratchet or a torque wrech with that special socket.

     

    shitty thing about that is that you have to carry that tool with you in your vehicle instead of having it at home where it probably belongs.


    or any neighborhood auto zone, o'reilly, etc
