Tested it on Friday. It runs fine, With the factory ammo the sound was about the same as a .22 rimfire rifle

Ok just got my BR reflex today and fitted it. Off to the range in the morning for testing. Anyone know what is the best ammo to run in a suppressed Saiga AK ? All the best Chris

YOU CAN HAVE AKs in origenal configuration (fully auto!!!!) and Saiga12,Molot shotguns? Full auto ... No unless you are a section 5 dealer then yes. As for Saiga 12 and vepr 12 no issues they are pretty standard. This is th off the shelf config in the UK

yes they are brand new from Saiga, straight from the production line. Not sure if they do them in the US as the import laws on rifles with some features are strange. I know they only import saigas in sporting configuration. The prices over here for the different specs are SVD - Modern Russian / standard mil-spec barrel / black polymer furniture £1,780-00 SVDS Paratrooper - Para's version of SVD (Tigr 02) £2,075-00 SVD - Modern Russian / .308 NATO (7.62x51) / 4 magazines / black polymer furniture £2,089-00 They seem pretty good for the money

They run at about £1800 to £2100 brand new in the UK. They do them in 7.62xr54R Ammo isn't an issue most RFD's sell that eastern block surplus stuff in tins or wooden boxes or the new version in .308 NATO (7.62x51)

So out of the box what could I expect 600+ yards ?

Typo I meant 1000 yards. Looks like I will be sending my paperwork in and getting one to try

Guys, Just looking for a little info before I submit my paperwork. I was looking for a rifle for 1000 yards. Thought about an AK variant that is capable of 1000 yard target shooting. Do you know if the 7.62x54R SVD Dragunov would be suitable for this? I was looking at something like this Regards Chris

My Prayres are with you T.J

Same here mate. I have a rare Lee Enfield made from the Fazakerley plant 2 miles from my home ( Long gone now though ). I have all the paperwork from it. Originally it was made for export to south african forces . However after that made its way to afganistan. After that it was purchased by a US dealer and shipped to USA before being sold at auction and making its way back to the UK. (2 miles from the old factory). Its in a little rough condition but I cant bare to re-blue it or sand it down due to the history. A nice collectors rifle and shoots as good as the day it was made

Just checked for you. We dont ship to Itialy from the UK as they has stringent laws regarding military styled rilfles. You probantly arnt braking any US ATF laws but there is a high probability that the item will be taken by Italian customs. Its not worth the issue unless the buyer accepts responisbility

I would have to say no. We cant ship them from the UK and its in the EU unless its a dealer. Italian law is wierd. You also have ITAR and thats another kettel of fish. If I was in your situation I would decline unless they were a firearms dealer and supplied a copy of there dealership paperwork. You dont want issues from the ATF.

Its a load of hoops paperwork . We are restricted to 24" overall legnth firearms and no semi auto other than .22 rimfire. (Unless you have home office export paperwork for section 5 weapons. Think you guys call them class 2 and class 3 in the US) Presonally im more of a collector so when I do open a store Im going to go down the old military rifles (lee Enfields, Negants, Tigers ect...and section 5 for dispatch and section 7 collectors pistol route. Basically guns with proven military histiry for export and section 7 permit meeting historic requirement . Just need to do my time as an agent fir

On a bonus when I got back in the UK I had a message on my phone from the local PD passing my paperwork to work as an agent for a local firearms dealler and transportation agent . Hopefully after another 12 months I can put my own paperwork in and open my own store:)

You mean the chicken ranch? No we got in a taxi and the driver suggested it or another club he was on about called Red rooster. The wife wasnt too impressed :/ Mabe I can work on that for next time ? NOT >>> I dont think the wife would let me survive
