I think everyone gets a mini 14 at some point in their life. Not that there are bad but definately leave you wanting more.
I am sportserizing a 1911 swed 6.5 bolt action for those really long shots.
What about the accuracy comparison saiga and ak .223?
Anyone get any feed back on the ar15 gas piston operated ar's.
-
here is what i am looking for: I want a good realiable cheap (realtive-willing to pay more for realiable and accurate), able to handle cheap ammo, accurate out to 500mm.
Basically a fun easy on the pocket weekly shooter and great SHTF gun.
i have been looking at the .223 carbine again and still remain confused.
1. i know the AR has great accuracy but the in the field realiablity suffers due to not being able to clean that often.
2, The ak has great reliablity but accuracy suffers past 100yds. I dont' know about the ak .223
3. Then add in the saiga and the cost of the conversion. would it be cheaper to buy an already built ak .223? What are the accuracy differences and mag realiability.
3. the new gas piston ar's are out but man 1500 or more is steep.
any help getting my options down to a couple of good battle worthy rifles would be appreciated.
thanks in advance

pnguyen678 sounds great. i have been too busy to get to do any shooting. i am going to try toget to gaylans and get some heavy loads and do a test myself.
-
believe it or not the best price i have run across here in maryland has been a Gaylans, a big sports store chain.
I agree about a gun being good to go right out of the box. Having said that most guns do need some sort of breaking in period.
The last time I talked with the gun smith at EAA he said the main reason is that the bolt for the 20 is pretty heavy and the fact that the gun needs to be shot well to broken in.
I thought the dove loads would do the breaking in but not the case. I am hoping 100 rounds of winchester heavy loads will do the trick.
-
macrophage,
what was the verdict?
-
pnguyen678, yeah i have had no problem hand cycling but some jamming and FTE 2 3/4 still. The gun smith at EAA said I should break it in with heavy loads. I thought the heavy dove loads would be enough. I am going to get winchester AAA heavy loads 3 inch and shoot the piss out of this thing and then go back to medium to light 2 3/4 to see if there is a difference.
Mr. Fubar,
Kind of wish i would have never sold my east german Mak. great little gun I couldn't help but sell it to help me buy my detonics compat 45acp.
-
OH sorry! Mags are sold. I must have to much on my mind.
I am glad someone finally noticed I was begining to think that eveyone lost their sense of humor.
-
great!!
I am glad to hear that there are others out there. i am having fun with mine and the pg conversion stuff waiting for sept.
Still looking for good rounds to work without probs.

some decent rails and mounts at blackjack buffer's sight that should work well. www.blackjackbuffers.com
-
no problem. he is great to do business with. I usually got a response with in the same day.
-
I am beging to wander if i am the only one left who owns and shoots a 20.
I would be interested in hearing range reports, opinions, upgrades etc.
Come on you 20 owners don't be intimidated by the 12 gauge guys. look at the 410 board it has alot of activity.
-
i used pay pal. I am sure that he will be happy with pretty much any form of payment.
-
I don't know. the ones i got from them were 5 round multiuse mags.
They have a "K" one the upper left corner of the mag. The single use have an
"H".
-
you won't be disapointed.
-
her is their email Tantal@sbcglobal.net
and their web site http://tantal.kalashnikov.guns.ru/bst.html
send them and email for prices of items that you are interested in. I think he will email you a full price list.
still has the saiga 20 gauge 5 pack of multi use (2 3/4 and 3 inch) mags for 40.00 bucks.
-
I don't want to sound like an advertisement for Tantal but the deal is good. 5 brand new in the manufacture wrapper for $40.00 bucks. can't beat it. Great service and quick email response. I will be doing business with him again.
-
OOPS!!!!!
I meant Tantal's sight.
-
Tapco ahs a good package deal for new mags that work with both. they are labeled with a "K" instead of an "H" on the upper mag.
Also heavier loads (2 3/4) or loads that have smaller metal work more reliably. the Federal field and target loads don't work well.
-
I don't know about the hogue pad as i just installed my hiviz recoil pad. I fabbed an adaptor plate from an old trowel blade using my trusty dremel. goundr the pad mounted the adaptor to the stock and the recoil pad to the adaptor. Mine has holes to mount from top of pad. check it out on the hiviz web site.

I have one new 20 gauge 3 inch magazine unused for sale.
Make me a decent offer.
Please email me
thanks

Just gpt the 5 in today. haven't had a chance to shoot but they cycle the 2 3/4 fine. The packaging says they are for the 3 and 2 3/4 inch and I believe that is true.
Macrophage I have onw 2 3/4 and one 3 inch I will trade for two of your new 5 round mags from tantal, Just as long there is letter "K" on the sides of the mags.
The ones that come with our guns that don't interchange rounds come with an "H" on the side.
Don't ask me what the diffence is, as I can't see any, all I know is that they work.
Sweet!
So Macrophage are you up for the trade?
Thank God for Tantal and BlackJack Buffers Two of the best!!!!!
Fun new 10/22!
