expeditionx 1 Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Maybe I missed something in the past few months. Are some of the new Saigas actually arriving from Russia with skeletonized buttstocks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
getitat 609 Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Hello I have a 16" barrel .308 w/ skeleton stock I got from GilbertsGuns.com. I gues I like it, but it's difficult to get a sight line on the iron sights, even with the cheekpiece rooled out of the way. I've never shot any other kind, so that may be a trait wih all of them. I think it will work a lot better with a scope.... Guido2 in Houston Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chapperjoe 0 Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 the stocks are being imported on the 16 inch saigas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KySoldier 2 Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 the stocks are being imported on the 16 inch saigas. Yep. Last I checked Gilberts had many models left including those. Does seem strange though that they are imported that way, when the ATF still says you can't legally assemble one here into that configuration. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SAIGA's are not on teh prohibitted list of imported weapons. adding these stocks does not make them into an AK. you can indeed put a thumbhole stock on a saiga. even if its russian you would still not be using foriegn parts to assemble a prohitbitted non-importable weapon. unless the ATF decides that a saiga with a thumbhole and NO OTHER MODS is a semiautomatic AK47 type weapon banned as such.
