  6. S-12 barrel cut and thread

    in Conversions and Modifications for the Saiga firearms

    Posted

    Dinzag, I'm getting the shark brake for my s-12 from Tromix in the mail any day now and have a few questions. I would like to make up the difference in lengh the brake will add so overall the barrel wont be any longer then it was before. What parts will I have to rent from you to do the job? Does your TK2257 kit included everything I need? Also will I need the crown tool? My last question can I use a pipe cutter to cut the barrel or do you recommend something else?

  7. New Saiga-12!........front sight question/problem

    I was looking threw Midway and Brownell's for those two parts. I was able to find the drill bit since you mentioned .081" below which translates to #46. But what is the conversion number for the 2.6mm x .045 Tap? I can't find it under that number.

    These numbers confuse the hell out of me, I just dont want to order the wrong thing.

     

    Thanks for all the help.

    Just to clarify here guys......the latest guns that just came in, don't have screw-in front sight posts. They are now being staked in place and this screw-in post will not work on those.

     

    So, make sure you have a gun with the older screw-in front sight post before ordering.

    How would I do this? By putting vise grips on it carefully and seeing if I can twist it off?

  12. Heads up on Recoil Reduction

    No it's different. I have the spec ops on my other SG (870P). That one only works with the Moss and Rem. It's the entire stock and the made to fit your gun type front part (its one piece). Plus that one works with springs, and there is no way to mount that on Saiga's. The one I'm talking about you either get just the tube or the tube and stock and mount it on your Saiga like this for example....

    And something like this for folding...

  13. Heads up on Recoil Reduction

    For anyone interested in reducing recoil I found a advertisement in my magazine that shows Mesa Tactical came out with a recoil reduction telescoping stock. I have a few Mesa Tactical stuff... Built very well, and they stand behind there products. With the ACE adapter you should be able to run this. Now I only have to move out of NY so I could give something like this a thought when I do my conversion.

    Tony, I would still like to get yours. Consider the check in the mail after you answer a question or two.

     

    First, since I am buying something from you I feel obligated to get the shark brake too. Can I get one of those are is it considered being put on the waiting list? Also your prices include shipping?

     

    So If I can get the shark brake threw you too with the sight, you want a check for $110.00 ?

     

    Shark Brake $85.00

    Site $25.00

  23. Up Loading pictures ?

    I read the the how to upload picture thread and went to down load the resizing program. But I got a notice saying its for XP I have Vista. How are Vista people doing it?

    I use vista, I just hit the browse button then upload them to the forum just make sure i don't exceed 1.95mb per upload works for me

     

    Thats the problem I'm having. I browse and upload fine, but get the notice that the image is to large. The auto resizer program only works for xp, so I cant use that, and I dont know of a easy way to reduce photo size. Its not a big problem, I'll just use photoBucket.
