  1. Howdy. Doe's anyone know if they make a replacement front sight post for the Saiga? A long... long time ago, I hacked off mine on my 20" and pressed on a beefy muzzle brake, with the desire at the time to go scope only. Now I have mounted a 2x 40mm red/green dot scope, and would like to have a front sight assembly of some kind to be able to co-witness or just use iron sights all together, in case the SHTF and my batteries die or the glass was to break.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

  2. Hi! My new Saiga 7.62 should arrive Monday or so. Its my first one. When I get a new gun, I usually take it apart, clean it thoroughly, oil it well, and repeat this procedure several times during the first 500-1000 rounds or so to aid in the break-in period.

     

    But with a Saiga, is there a break in period? Will there be the usual factory grease to remove? and can anyone recommend a web page, site, or book on the proper cleaning of a Saiga? I really like to keep all my guns in tip top operating condition and clean. Also, doing this with new weapons helps me get to know the gun inside and out, better and better each time I take it apart and clean it.

     

    Any other suggestions for what to do with a "new" rifle? Anything you guys can recommend to a newbie like me? (just new to the Saiga, I have several other guns). Thanks in advance!

    Hey bro. Just surf the million pages in this forum, and you'll get every single answer you're lookin' for. Break in will usually be established after your first 500 rounds.

    Also, a recommendation I can make to you is another Saiga!

  3. My x39 is on the way to my FFL and I'm on the net shopping for parts! If i'm using a non USA stock and the stock handguard, what am i going to need to do to abide by 922r? Will the trigger group and gas piston put me in the clear?

     

    I'm trying to decide between a Romanian style side-folder (there seem to be several variations being sold as "Romanian" right now) and the '74-style triangular one.

     

    And then there's the voice in my head saying to skip both and stick with a fixed stock for better cheek-weld with a scope.

     

    I'm gonna grab the CAA pistol grip with the interchangeable grip surfaces.

     

    Mags are coming from Cope's and then anywhere else i see them cheap.

     

    Not sure about a scope though, guess I'm gonna have to do some more reading on that one.

     

    Wheeee!
