You can get the correct Russian 5.5 Trunnion and hardware from rusmilitary.com for about $91 USD Tantal may have a Russian 5.5 Pin Poly Stock for $120USD That dosen't save you much but they should have it. There is a guy on akforum.com - Artty62 who either had the Trunnion stuff or an extra Poly stock. - you may want to look him up. sKott

I got my set from him back in October. Very Satisfied.

Thanks - You have to modify the trunnion slightly for the carrier to miss the trunnion. Here is a picture of a Saiga 12C Trunnion that was destroyed during demill. The area in green shows roughly what needs to be removed on a regular AK 100 Folding trunnion. I bought it to use as a hole locator. Works rather well, Just had to shave the hinges off of the other side. - Bolt it up to the existing receiver and drill the 10mm Hole. then go back and re-drill with an 11mm on the hook side. I also use the old receiver parts to use for a template for the rest of the cutting.

Thanks -

I would like to take one to have a complete set (2,5 & 8) I can trade a good Factory S-12 5 round Plus some cash... I have a few other things for trade - Check your PM's I the Humble/Houston Area.

Personally, I like the Krebs sight but I would rather it be pressed and pinned instead of clamped. (Visually the two cap screws at the bottom are the big turn off for me.) Maybe being clamped is better? Just seems like another screw to back out and loose. Most likely I'll end up using the Kreb's site... sKott

Nice Flash Hider. - Do you make the pinned sight with the lug? That's exactly what I'm looking for...

I need a mag plate and a front s12c front latch. I emailed oleg no answer. Anyone have a idea if a AKS74 front latch will work? I think I can get one at ORF. The search continues. I should be pressing rivits in a day or so. Still have to find a tig, last resort will use a mig and a smashed flat copper pipe as backing to fill the 2 holes from the rear trigger linkage, maybe try silver solder it will be strong, not like the holes are going to cause stress cracks. Any leads will be helpful. Thanks The latch for the 74 will not work (S-12 Front trunnion it too large) Hopefully Oleg will ge

It was a preference. I feel that it is a must for any AK with a folding stock.

I still have to get it refinished but so far so good More picts on the post from Jan 4th

Looking at your pic above it appears to be installed correctly, Are you having problems with it? sKott's pic I haven't had the opportunity to shoot it yet. - for some reason it just looked funny. I got back home and checked and it is the same as my AK's and they work just fine. Just want to make sure all is well. I hope to test it over the weekend.

Could someone take a look and verify that the Hammer spring is installed correctly?

I got the receiver back from Elk River yesterday and proceeded with the test fit of all of the parts. 5 US Compliance parts installed: K-Var Pistol Grip (1), Dinzag Arms US FCG (3), Tromix Gas Piston Puck (1). I believe my parts count is within compliance. If it is not please someone let me know. Elk River welded all of the holes, welded the pistol grip plate, riveted the rear receiver and trigger guard. ($150 + tax) Selector side Rail Side I had to flatten the domed rivets on this side with a file to allow the stock to fold. I cannot remember... Are they all flat or just this

Thanks Jones... I will pick it up from Global Trades (Elk River) today - Rivets and welding will be done & I'll Post Picts tonight.

I think rusmilitary.com has the correct plug in stock to convert a 5 round to a 2 round. Gilberts also has 2 round mags in stock (5 round with the 2 round spacer installed).

I saw a S-12 at the Houston Gun Show this weekend for $450 - But that's the only one I saw.

Where did you get the "C" stamp from? What size? etc. I'd like to stamp mine...

I had Dinzag Arms modify a G2 Double Hook trigger to work with a Saiga 12. I reused the spring from the original FCG. He had to shave the hammer face, shorten the pin shaft for the BHO Lever and polished the rest of the surfaces the make contact.

What is the item in your Avatar? I belive it is a DIAS for an AR? sKott can you post measurements of the selector stop and trigger guard mod's you did? Nice write up. I will post them as soon I get it back from riveting. - Should be around the 2nd of January.

What is the item in your Avatar?

Duracoat makes a very nice finish. So should I Parkerize then Duracoat or can I just duracoat it?

I will eventually Hard Chrome Plate the Bolt Carrier, BHO Lever and the Folding Stock locking pin. I want the rest to be Flat Black. The guy at Global said I should parkerize it but I do not know if that's the best route... I was thinking about trying out Norrell's Molly Resin. What other options are out there?? Opinions Wanted!!!!!

Thanks everybody!!! I think its going well so far. Today I took the receiver to Elk River (Global) to have the welding and rivets done. I would like to do the rivets myself but lack the tooling and shop press to do those steps. It should be ready to pick up around Thursday. I will post more picts after i pick it up. sKott

How much does a Cobra Rail Cost?
