  1. Thanks all. I'll see what I can do about some form of compensation. This wasn't a fast turnaround time and wasn't exactly cheap.
  2. I recently had my rifle converted to a pistol grip, and I put 5 rounds down range before the hammer pin came loose with a live round in the chamber. I've never heard of this happening with an AK. Is this something that should be easily fixed? I will say that the first 5 rounds show very nice accuracy and I should never have any extraction issues with the 20' that the casings were being launched.
  3. Got mine NIB at the Chantilly gun show for $305 in February 2008.
  4. Thanks guys. I will get in touch with Dinzag.
  5. I'm very happy with this rifle thus far. $305 (don't ask- they sold out at that price a while back ) plus fees for PG conversion (including BHO). I took it to the range yesterday, and ran 25 rds of Malaysian surplus ammo through a 25rd SureFire mag. No problems. I was firing slow off the bench to see how it would group. (surprisingly tight, but my eyes had trouble with the indoor lighting focusing the front sight on the sight-in target.....not a big fan of standard AK sights for "sighting in"). I removed the Tapco stock that came with conversion and installed a Vltor AK extensi
  6. The Krebs grip is the way to go. Get into a boxer's stance and you'll see how your wrist is naturally angled.
  7. I'm looking at a pretty slick SBR option for my Saiga 7.62x39. Will Bulgarian trunnions fit Saiga receivers? Thanks.
  8. Here's my first Saiga .308. A bit over $500 for a Russian .308 AK? That'll do!
  9. I'm going to shoot the S-308 with irons, and maybe some day with an Aimpoint mounted low, but here is the trajectory calculator. If anyone has fps chrono data for South African or Malaysian surplus ammo, that would be helpful. http://www.eskimo.com/~jbm/ballistics/traj/traj.html
  10. I found a trajectory calculator. It looks like if I'm zeroed at 25 yards, and 1.2" high at 50 yards, I'll be zeroed at 200 yards.
  11. I prefer a +/-200 meter zero for my other calibers (.223, 5.45, and 7.62x39) and am new to the .308. I have access to a 50-yard indoor range for a quick zero. Anyone have trajectories for a 16" .308?
  12. A shop in the Fredericksburg area. I'll post this info shortly.
  13. Thanks guys. I will forward this feedback onto them. For $180 (including the stock and grip- I supplied the G2) and a 2-week turnaround time I was happy with it. Hopefully it runs! I didn't notice much of a difference in the paint- will have to have a closer look at home.
  14. My first Saiga was a 12 gauge, which I recently had converted by a gunsmith in Virginia. How did they do? I then picked up a .308, then a 7.62x39. Is it just me or do Saigas seem like much better quality than Arsenal Bulgaria for a lot less money??? I'm planning on getting Cobra's rail system for this, along with some Krebs sights.
  15. I took the S308 to the range 2 weeks ago. This thing has huge potential. I'm used to a pistol grip so it was tough to pull the sporter stock back into the shoulder to reduce recoil. It was dead on at 25 yards (NO adjustment- surprising for an AK!), grouping very tightly, and at 50 yards it was a couple of inches high (indoor range). Would love to put a JPoint red-dot on a rail as my eyes have trouble with standard AK sights. But, it's good enough for govt. work.
