Thanks madmax I didnt realize the S/N wasnt on the sheetmetal part of the receiver. I dont have one to actually look at yet. The DD sounds like more than id want to get into. I guess I will just have to learn to love the 19 inch[ or watever they are] barrell. Thanks again.

Thats just great my very first post here, and its already turning ugly. And the sad part is that people dont even know who they r arguing with. I just wanted to start a conversation about an Idea and get some helpful responses.Yes it may just be a pipe dream but cant we just sit down and discuss firearms without pointing fingers and bad mouthing people. I suggest u read the whole post and pay attention to who said what b4 u start accusing people. My apoligies and thank you to everyone for the insight.

If I understand correctly u would be building on the bare receiver which has never had a buttstock on it. The receiver is the gun not the rest of it. So a bare receiver registered as an aow would be legal. Correct me if im wrong on this. As I only half ass know wat im talkin about at most times.

Just register it as a SBS and do what you want with it. If you're gonna do your own work, it's gonna cost you $200 for the tax either way. Thats the problem THE GREAT OBAMA SUPPORTING STATE OF INDIANA allows no SBS!!!

My idea was to just use an s12 with modified [registered] reciever ,cut the barrel and not install a buttstock of any kind. I know it can be done ,but im not sure im dedicated enough to do it[ or financially able]!!! Anythings possible with a sawzall and a welder, right? What hoops do u have to jump through to register a reciever as aow?? paperwork? sign off? $200? am i missing any thing? I really appreciate all of ur opinions.

Greetings everybody, been lurkin for awhile and have a question. I live in a no sbs state and really want a short barrel saiga, thats the only thing keeping me from getting one [ long ass barrel ] Could I get a stripped reciever like the Origin or some other AK reciever and register it as an AOW and build on that? Obviously with no buttstock. Any Ideas? thanks alot guys. great forum!! P.S IM getting an s12 before the new year one way or the other!!!!
