  1. I made some 15 round magazines years ago out of factory ones. They're not hard to make at all. You've just got to be careful if you live in a state where 15 rounds is the limit. You don't want to take too much off the follower. You could also just buy these and call it a day. http://www.tapco.com/proddesc.aspx?Id=MAG0605SINGLE

    You could also get these floor plates from K-var and you'll wind up with 2 US made parts in your magazine. https://www.k-var.com/shop/product.php?prod...=334&page=1

    Those US made floor plates were very hard to come by before this.

  2. I had trouble with my cleaning rod and kit as well. I ordered a standard length cleaning rod from K-var when I switched over to a bayonet lug style FSB and AK furniture. Problem was, it didn't thread in to my regular saiga cleaning kit tools. I ended up ordering a regular AK cleaning kit from K-var and then everything was fine.

  3. Absolutely NOTHING wrong with Tapco stocks. I have the T6 on a Saiga 12, .410, and on a Saiga 308. Also on a 12 -ga Remington. No problems whatsover. Well built and trustworthy.

    Have you had a K-var stock to compare it to? I've had both, compared the finish, felt the weight difference, knocked on both of them, etc. I already said which one I choose.

  4. I've had 2 Tapco stocks in the past and hated them both. I had the T6 stock first and got rid of it quick and then got a regular warsaw(only legth they had) stock. That stock was a hollow piece of shit too. I manned up and spent the money on K-var nato length length furniture and couldn't be happier with it. I alternate between that set and a wood set that I have.

  5. I think the first problem was buying a tapco magazine. Second problem was modding your rifle to use a tapco magazine. Only real suggestion I can give you it to go to Numrich's web site and order a new magazine latch. You don't need to change the trigger guard and all that other shit, just the magazine latch.

  6. Are you planning on reusing the FSB? If not you can take a dremmel with a cut off wheel and put a nice slice along the entire length on the bottom. Try not to cut all the way down to the barrel though. Take a hammer and chisel to that slice and it will just split open. Once it's split open it will come right off.

  7. Shit, I was hoping it would have no threads at all. I'm in NJ and the whole threaded barrel thing has been fucking me over for some time now.

     

     

    I'm in NJ also.

     

    I dont really know if this would be legal in NJ, but this attachement does not really thread the physical barrel itself, it's sort of like a clamp on brake, which there are no laws for in NJ.

     

    So since you would not be threading the barrel, would this still be non compliant in NJ?

     

     

    i called the state police and they told me this.. NO threads at all.... NO flash hider at all... i then said can i weld on a brake.. he said the rules are exactly what he said they were... no threads no flash hider... so im under the impression that it basically has to be reasonable perminent or its no good...but i actually am interested in this because i was thinking some kind of brake on it then just have a little spot weld on the brake.. this would let me not have to actually weld my barrel...

    The whole point is to not have accessible threads on the barrel, and not a have a flash hider. You can in fact thread your barrel, but then you either have to weld or blind pin a muzzle brake on. The problem is, if you thread your barrel in NJ, you've just committed a felony, for however long it takes you to blind pin or weld the brake on. This is why I was hoping this brake would go on sort of like a compression fitting, just squeezing the barrel. If you put one of those set screw thread adapters on your rifle in NJ it's illegal. Why wouldn't this brake be illegal too? You're adding threads that are accessible, which in the state polices mind means you can add a flash hider. If you really want to add a brake legally in NJ your best bet would be to buy a nice 74 style one with 24MM threads along with a new FSB with 24MM threads and send both, along with your rifle to a place like Adco to have them pinned together and installed on the rifle. Once you get it back you'll have your muzzle brake, and no access to the threads. That would be legal.

  8. A guy at my range asked me about the hollow point thing recently. We started looking together and we both came to the same understanding. The way we understood it, we can buy, posses, and shoot hollow points. You can't shoot someone with them, or be cought with them in your weapon though. Thing is, if you shoot someone in this state, you're probably going to jail anyway, even of the dude's in your house attacking you. They will say that you should have jumped out a second story window rather than shoot the bad guy. The other thing is, just about nobody can get a concealed carry permit. No concealed carry permit, no concealed weapon, no opportunity to have hollow points for anything other than target shooting. Best bet is to buy hollow points and take them directly to the range and leave them there. Thing is, why would you even buy hollow points if you're only allowed to shoot paper with them?

  9. Your gun is supposed to be locked, and separate from your ammo. You can toss your gun in your trunk, assuming you have an actual trunk, and leave your ammo on the front seat legally. I wouldn't recommend it, but it's legal. If you keep your gun in a locked case in the trunk you can keep your ammo in the trunk. If your gun case does not lock, do not leave it in the trunk with ammo unless the ammo is locked up in a box. The key thing is, one of them has to be locked up, and if you can only lock one of them up, make sure it's the rifle.

  10. If you get them from K-var I'm sure that they'll have the hole/slot for the rod, Tapco, I'm not so sure. Just a heads up, the rod that comes with the saiga rifle is not a correct cleaning rod. The other thing is, if you buy the correct cleaning rod, the saiga cleaning kit will not thread on it it. Do yourself a favor and when you order ALL of your furniture from K-var, buy a cleaning rod and cleaning kit from them.

  11. Thanx a bunch guys!

    I see that I can get the NATO length in 2 different styles.

    AK-020BUSM

    AK-020BUS

    The decisions never stop....

    Only one of those fits the Saiga, the 020BUS. The other one ending in M is for milled receivers. I didn't check, but I know how K-var numbers there stuff.

  12. If you buy that fire control group from Dinzag arms you won't need anything else. He cuts down the tube for you so that the BHO will work, includes cir clips (I don't personally like them) and even gives you the nylon hole plugs from what I've heard.

    With the optics, I kind of prefer to scope a rifle. Target acquisition with the particular scope I linked to is pretty quick for me. It's not like you're trying to use the center of cross hairs on a regular scope. You've got a big upside down arrow(delta) in the middle of the thing that lights up in red. If you're trying to acquire the target quickly but not necessarily accurately you can quickly get that delta on the target. I used to have a red dot on my gun but got sick of having a giant 2" dot to aim with. I wanted something that was as small as possible so that I could improve my aiming skills. I'm at the point where I can get sub MOA with my rifle using shitty ammo. Its cost me a couple thousand rounds and tons of time though.
