  1. Wish these were BHO mags like the veprs. I'd grab a few of they were.
  2. Is that because of the different mag catch length or something?
  3. Nope.The Fury mags are a little longer front to back. There is just not enough material to remove to make them function properly IMO. If you modded the actual magwell it might work.To me its just not worth it.The V12 mags and the SGM Vepr 12 mags work in my 433a.No mod necessary with the SGM mags. What about the length of the followers? Visual inspection looks like they should ride inside the mags just fine.
  4. Anything vepr12 doesn't seem as plentiful as before, and the legion magwell versions are almost impossible to find. With that being said, it seems even less likely you'll find them on sale. Sidenote: The vepr mags are in stock here at he e-shop as well as the legion 5rd mags. Correction to my last post. The part number if you wanna do your own looking is Sgmt12XXL with the xx being the round count.
  5. The one I found had a model number SGM-1212L and i think said for saiga magwell versions. Assuming they did the same for the other capacities it the middle two numbers will indicate the round count.
  6. Oh I meant the SGM mags that say legion.
  7. Yep, or the legion model if you can find One.
  8. you need to sand down the front of the back where that shelf is, and then possibly a bit from the rear of the mag about halfway down where that little band is. That of course depends on the gun. well see here's what i'm getting at, the Fury II uses a magwell and those mags are equipped with a bho. That means a cheap 5rd mag with that ability to add to my inventory. Also, if they are clones of the 030 mag, that means the followers should behave similarly and would give me a source of cheap followers to use in other mags. There are of course a lot of ifs and possibles here so anything is likel
  9. So I couldn't help but notice that the catamount fury II mags look just like the 030 factory 4 rounder. Is there a snowballs chance in hell they would mate in a 030? the bho and $10 price tag seems enticing enough. I came across the article below Which further entices me to try, especially for $10 mags. http://www.theakforum.net/forums/88-apex-gun-parts/172458-catamount-fury-mags-vepr-12-compatibility.html
  10. The gun from the test video was a century C39 and had a double hook fcg, was there any other difference? I am trying to understand what it is that makes the guns themselves do this. I have the "full auto/original" style safety lever and used a tapco single hook fcg from CSS. When it engages the disconnect the hammer doesn't move. I wonder if the C39s have a single peice disconnector/trigger assembly or have some sort of strange linkage in their guns. For the sake of testing I even tried to do this in my Cugir made PSL with no effect.
  11. Just saw this yesterday on youtube and my converted 030 will not do this. I can take the safety clear out of the gun and it will not drop/release the hammer. One has to question though, why would you have something like that happen in the first place? Dis-assembly of a loaded gun or awkward manipulation of the safety while loaded seems unlikely. I did note that the dust cover extension catches safety lever as it us pushed up to safe and ceases to have the dimple on the reverse side of the safety lever leaves top of its ) patch on the receiver.
  12. So to recap there are no brakes made to take chokes? I seem to recall while browsing that there are threaded choke adapters that give you the option of using standard shotgun chokes with the added ability of screwing a brake on afterwards. Has anyone played with these or seen a similar concept? I have also seen dummy birdcage flash hiders that are threaded (silly imo). Since we are somewhat on the subject, I have found rifled barrel extensions for the S12 (seemingly absurd) and I will have to go looking again since I found it on my phone. Anyone see or have any experience with those as well?
  13. I thought the manually adjusted system had more problems and that the vepr/030s just ran.
  14. Agreed, I am glad I got it when I did. it certainly wasnt in the budget at the time (with me moving and all), but it was a great way to the close the military chapter of my life. It really pleases me to still see them at pre panic(or damn close) prices on some websites. It makes me halfway tempted to get another,maybe in .410.
  15. Im still up in the air about whether either was a better way to go, since I had been drooling over s12s for a long time, it seems like each has their benefits but I wasnt convinced the universal gas system was worth the difference especially when the top rail was plastic and the folder portion spooked me because of it being, for the most part, permanent. Converting isn't as painful as I thought itd be as long as you have the correct tools (a dremel and a nail or punch, a twist tie and maybe needle nose pliers). Did I mention how much I love my dremel? It's definitely one of those thi
  16. Yeah, I know the vepr or legion suggested sgm12 rounders do, but the only ones that were on sale were the regular rock n lock ones, which I got 4 of. I really wish I had the foresight to grab some before the "supreme commander" decided to make more "freedom" for us.
  17. I was hoping you were talking about the keepshooting mags. The factory Vepr 12 mags aren't really at a price point that warrants salvaging for BHO functions on my SGM 12 rounders. Do the stock Saiga 12 mags have BHO? I seem to remember the later versions did have that feature but i dont remember if its automatic or requires you to press the bho button to keep the bolt back.
  18. if they do.... that'll be very exciting. My Bastard file and dremel hunger for plastic.
  19. I was curious to see how your conversion went. I took the dive and did mine myself and it came out quite nicely after a few minor issues. What/where are you getting parts from. On a semi related note, do not use the triangular trigger guard, it will not mate up since the IZ-433s have the BHO button down there in front of where the trigger will set. I had to cut and grind a section of my trigger guard away to be able to use the guard. I will be getting the squared off one in the future as its very difficult to use.
  20. The difficult thing is that if you were to send the mags to someone else, they'd be matching the mags to their gun and they may end up fitting differently with your gun. I agree and was a little spooked myself, but at the price point I got, the potential success was worth the chance of wasting $15. I am thinking about grabbing some of those Taiwanese mags for $15 and seeing if I can replicate the luck I had with the SGM12 rounders. If I get one and the conversion goes well, I'll help you figure it out of you're interested.
  21. Do those mags have a bho and does it work with the 030s? I saw that sale and was interested, but mainly for harvesting the followers for the SGM mags.
  22. I picked up some SGM 12 rounders for $15 a pop last year and decided to try and mod one to work in a magwell. The countours compared to my stock mag were close but needed dremeling and removal of the front lug. Those 12 rounders fit and cycle just fine now and mainly need a little massaging to get to the point where the slide in and click without much work. As of right now you insert and pull back with a little pressure till it clicks. The main gripe is no bho but oh well can't complain at that price. I plan on getting a vepr12 sgm mag to compare the little differences.
  23. Hmm, might be a worthy $35 experiment. it would make it look like a seletonized rpk stock.
