Fast Payment - Easy Transaction

I'm very partial to 30 Round East German mags. I have a dozen and would never part with them. They seem to be finished better (Cleaner welds and better machined feed lips) than some of the other countries who made them. I think it would be better said that your friend in Nevada bought them and he lets you use them when and only when you are in Nevada.

Let me know if you are getting rid of the triangle folder... I need one for another project.

My S-12 came with the factory BHO lever. Some people seem to have issues with them staying open but so far I've have not had that issue. I am about to embark on an AMD 65 build and wanted to know if the same style lever would work with an AK bolt carrier? Thanks - sKott

SOLD ~ I have an extra sidefolder latch set that I picked up on another board. Wanted to keep it for spare parts but I have the itch to get an AMD 65 kit and need to unload some of the extra stuff. Just looking to recoupe what I have in it. $50 shipped

+1 on the Dental Floss

Agreed

I can help you if you have any specific questions.

I'm not sure what would be involved with removing the ACE stock but the Triangle folder installation would not be that bad. You will have to modify the donor trunnion slightly so the bolt carrier does not run into it. Check out my conversion, it should be the same as what you want just swap out the poly side folder with the triangle folder. Be sure to save as much of the old donor receiver so you can use it for a template for drilling the holes. http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=21197 If you have any specific questions let me know and I'll try to help where I can. sKot

I have heard there is issues with the rifle version but I believe they worked out the bugs for the pistol. We'll see.

I was wanting to build an AK pistol but I never could settle on a "style". Most that I have seen either look unfinished or chopped up. I have seen some good builds but I do not have the tools to do it right and didn't want one that looked half ass either. I also wanted to vary my ammo choices with the addition of something that shoots 5.56 NATO. After looking around and doing a little reading I decided this would be my next purchase. Kel-Tec PLR 16 - This photo shows one with all of the bells and whistles. The guts of it work pretty much the same way an AK does in regards to the ga

After a good aluminum oxide blast and a MEK bath The Saiga 12 was ready for a new coating. For this I chose the Black Flat Thermal Cure Norrell Moly Resin. This stuff works great, easy to apply and really looks like a professional finish. Trust me, its not my skill with an airbrush - Ive never used one until now. Last thing to complete is to Hard Chrome Plate the Bolt carrier, Hinge Pin and Folding stock lock. sKott

Global Trades has the bulgarian selector stops in stock.

Did you remove the barrel? No I will plug the barrel and the gas block before blasting and coating.

I like the russian poly side folder. Locks up tight with no play. + you get a factory look and feel.

I think it's about time to finish up this project and move on to the next one. To refinish I picked up 8oz of Norrell's Moly resin and a Airbrush from Harbor Freight. This weekend I plan on blasting with 70 grit Aluminum Oxide, cleaning, coating and baking following the directions that came with the product. This week I took everything apart and finished cleaning up the rear of the receiver where the import marks were. More to come

Thanks for the info. Maybe I have my threads crossed... (wouldn't be the first time)

As I understand it the Factory Saiga 12 C/K will not fire with the stock folded. Does anyone have a picture of the parts that do this?

I have a factory 2 rounder that I could measure if that helps... [

Tantal's is the way to go. I think I paid $214 that was part shipping an tx state sales tax

I went with the 2 rivets. If you use 4 rivets the front two rivets are under the block in the receiver and would be a little difficult to squeeze - it's not a hard procedure... Here is a link to the write up: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showto...06&hl=sKott

I really like the Kobra as well.

Sort of... I would not want take the chance of warping the receiver just to fill in the importers stamp. I subscribe to the leave well enough alone theory but I would like to remove the rest of the stamp. I do not have that much to fill in. If I did not want to weld what would my other options be other than JB Weld. Could I silver solder over the letters and sand that down?

Oh hell not again...don't you guys know anybody that welds? Yes, I do have a coulpe of contacts that weld. During my conversion I had the extra pin holes welded but I did not want to have that much heat applied to that large of an area on the receiver for cosmetic purposes. I figured I could either leave it alone or fill in the stampings with another material. I did not realize that this idea was frowned on or somehow considered sloppy work.
