I have 3 different formats of race guns, two with C-mores and 1 with a Doctor (most recent). By far the lightest and easiest sight picture is the Doctor. I have never had an issue with any of these, and consider them the only thing I would put on a heavy shooting load gun (volume and recoil). I think my C-Mores have a combined 17000 rounds on the pistols, and I liked it so much I dropped it as low the frame on my Saiga as I could get it with a cheapo front mount. It is just the railway std picatinny rail mount, which the doctor also offers. I'd love to see a doctor mounted to one of these

On mine with the Izzy sight the post is all the way up to the top of the wings. I would rather have the taller sight tower and have the pin in the center of the circle. Dinzag's sights rock too! The set screws that secure it are down through the top of the sleeve so you don't have those fugly lugs hanging down to look like shit and get in the way of a bayo. Try back tomorrow on the web site for a decent pic. After about 170 views a day, my BW useage on this is maxed and they turn over my clock at midnight so the site takes a day to recover. You get what you pay for I guess (nothin

I have a steady amount of PMs regarding my easy factory iron site setup with pictures. It originated from an old Cobra mod that I followed. I purchased a Glock 17 rear factor sight blade from CDNN (or Midwest) for about 4.00. I trimmed it a bit with sand paper on the edges until it fit tightly into my factory rear sight blade. I added the cheap clamp on AK front sight post, spun up the center pin about 4 turns to zero at 50 yards, and lightly drifted the rear blade (OK bent) a click to the left with a light hammer tap. It is one of the clearest iron sight pictures of about 4 of the S

I'm in Redington Beach, prolly 45 minutes drive from him. Willing to help out if you want, PM me. I would also recommend Cole's gun shop in Clearwater if he can't do it - they can. Best of best local shop in all of south FL. Might get a quote from them in parallel. Fast guys, and experts in nearly everything other than class-3.

They are crap if you plan to shoot a lot. I had 3 of them (stupid me for continuing to buy them). They eventually all fell apart and/or wouldn't tighten properly after frequent removal. Didn't hold zero very well. I loved the quick removal, but have much very happy and not having to screw around re-zeroing after doing away with them. They seem to work on my AKM 7.62s, but not good for much on a 12 gauge.

The first time I "home drilled out" my 22inch to 18inch 3pattern gas holes with a cheapo drill bit I had this same problem. After about 30 rounds or so, an accumulation of plastic wad matter, lead shavings, solid unburnded powder, and other crap would accumulate like mad within that gas area between the plug and piston. I tried different shells and didn't find that much difference. I finally borescoped the crap from the chamber down in with a magnifier and noticed the burrs on my home brew drill job that were not clear or chamferred upward such as not to catch every damn thing that pushed d

Research of course, but I still can't believe there isnt' a fielded high end shotty in the sand. http://shock.military.com/Shock/videos.do?...amp;ESRC=dod.nl

has anyone receive their MD drums and how do they work? also, anyone else have any issues with the other place that had them out for a while now (can't remember thier name)? finally saved enough to burn some bucks on drums for my S-12 and AR.

I have shot a few boxex of it in my Sagia and it shoots good, even with a 8 inch barrel. Ditto on my 7 and 3/4" I wish it was easier to find. Great stuff in my S-12. Clean, consistent, nice groupings and I don't even think it has one of the fancy Federal patent wads in the 00. Works good.

My pics don't post well sometimes, but here is a couple: http://www.twinhairdryers.0catch.com/SAIGA-12-3.JPG http://www.twinhairdryers.0catch.com/SAIGA-12-1.JPG

+1 Never too many guns! pain in the ass to load shells into my WM drum .... and even bigger pain in the ass to attach the drum ... but i like it and it looks pretty lol why would this WM drum not be able to feed buck or slugs?? "It seems reliable enough, takes standard shots (not buck or slug)" please explain

Topmaul - did your mount stay solid under fast fire? I put a dab of red threadlocker on mine once it was near zero and it seems to be holding my C-More solid. Only have a couple hundred down the pipe so far though. My side rails were good for a few hundred until they started cracking and sliding off or the optic went south on them. So far, so good with this setup.

The warnings on 1oz apply to light shot only. More pressure in a slug going down regardless of the weight than small birdshot particles. I look more at velocity, and stick to 1200fps or higher if you want no issues. High 1100's usually work ok also, but become patchy depending on the powders and wad designs.

Rocinante - the Glock 19 sight required some sanding only and a small punch to slide it tightly into the rear sight on my ribbed version. It was not a dremel job, just a 2 side sanding. It really works well with the elevated AK rear sight. Two turns of adjustment and it zeroed in at 50 yards. I put a small dab of glow paint on the front sight post top, and it has a sight picture like a Glock, with a little bit more snort when you pull the trigger . Hit the enlarge and magnify a couple times on this pic.

Welcome to the addiction...........er I mean Saiga club! Very nice start at the short range and long range blasting components. What I have found is that general questions about Saiga functions add up to a collection of personal experience with their particular cut, modified, stroked, magnified, re-tuned, and do-dad oriented version of what these come from stock. Even in stock form, they can differ in form fit and function. My suggestion is, try every load you have on 1 setting and see if you can find anything that doesn't run on 1. You will find that most everything does except low brass

oldandslow. nice work on that extension tube on th 153. I have been considering ordering a spare cap to try a similar home garage approach. what spring did you end up using? also - what was the cost of the benelli tube you used, and would you try another option if you did it all over again?

It is actually just two single nub picatinny rails on round barrel mounts sort of like scope rings. You just space them out to match the rail requirements of your optic. It is the same idea as that one that someone on this forum is selling for 100 bucks, only this one is about 50 bucks. I am trying to find the sight I ordered it from, but the dang thing is evading me. Others on this forum have used this same barrel ring setup. I can't recall the names now, but I used some red locktight to the screws to secure them so they don't loosen. The C-More is just on a standard railway and easily m

Thanks guys. So, here is a summary of my Baikal MP 153 test run. Drove a couple miles off shore in the gulf of mexico with the 153 and 2 boxes of #8 light dove loads, 2 boxes of #4 magnum steel shot, three 5 round boxes of 3" magnum slugs, and 5 boxes of Wolf low brass slugs. I screwed the bare ass cap over the spring about 4 turns. I fired every single round of that mis match crap pile of ammo I had without mucking with the spring or cap or anything. Most rapid fire followups. Very little recoil, very fast action. One very happy Baikal newbie!!! My first passion is a Saiga 12, but

oldandslow - I got off of gunbroker on an auction. new in the box. 320 bucks shipped. it beats the snot out of my 1100 and my other auto 12 bird guns. came with 4 screw in chokes and a wrench also. can't beat this price. 28 inch barrel. all it needs is some light pipes on the rib and it will shoot skeet and neighborhood cats just fine.

So I get my first Baikal MP 153 home, and start to clean it and put it together to hand cycle it. I'm in my garage and I put the barrel on, and then try to fit the plastic handgard on, and the little black plastic cap that held the mag spring goes off into neverland. I never did find it. I did get the gun cleaned and just the gas cap back on. Can I shoot it, or do I need another cap part????? worried and stupid.. :roll: http://www.twinhairdryers.0catch.com/

I did a Cobra original rear sight in Glock format. I ordered a spare G-19 rear sight to go into the S12 rear and trimmed the glock dovetail I had to sand about 3mils off each side of mine and tapped into my factory rear sight on the Saiga. You can see it in the 2nd pic down from this site of some of my long arms. http://www.twinhairdryers.0catch.com/ That glock rear sight is awesome. I look at it and line up a long pistol with the elevated AK front post. I can shoot 4" circles at 50 yards with those iron sights all day with wolf slugs. You would not believe the clarity of t

Finally got my front Barrel mounting bracket and got my C-More zeroed on my Saiga. So far it is working well and holding zero. I have disinategrated a Kobra and 3 chinese red dots on this so far on the side rail mount, so i'll keep updates on the durability of this one. C-more is used by a lot of race gun types and seems to have a good reputation. That front mount clamp was about 50 bucks if I recall. So far so good. Actually got my ace folder on shortly after this pic last weekend. I ended up going with the uncut tang block. I have some ape hangers that are long and the other block pu

Wow - parting with a CETME must have been tough. I put those on a fair pedestal in 308 as I do a Saiga 12 for a shotgun. Please let us know if the Saiga 308 shoots as well as the CETME. I'd be interested. I'd also only trade either of those for a SOCOM. There is nothing quite as sensory inspiring as firing a high test 308 round out of a 16inch barrel. Sorta like shooting Lake City out of my PLR-16.
