markdam 0 Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hi guys love this forum ive been lurking and finally "pulled the trigger" on buying a saiga 223. Ok saiga 10 round mags are very cost prohibitive. I live in california.... my question is... has anyone modded any other 10 round to fit the saiga? is there a way to fit a cheaper 10 rounder without the bullet guide? i dont have a problem modifying magazines but there has to be a way to have Cal legal 10 rounders cheap!!! any thoughts?

I have since installed Dinzags orlite feedramp so they no longer fit, however i'm holding on to mine for now, just in case some damn law is passed that i would have to turn in my high caps and remove my feed ramp..... he was asking $20 each - based out of New York, goes by the name of Ichi..... i think and no, I am not the seller.... good luck!

GunOwner 1 Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 I bought 6 from him 5 worked fine - sent the 6th back for a replacement on my nickle and he just credited me the $20 (not what I wanted but better than nothing) His email is: ichci@optonline.net Have fun.

I'm not slamming you but your email said you would take the defective one back and return a working one to me then you refunded my money and when I said I wanted the mag not the money you said I had to pay $3 more to cover your paypal fees (which I got charged on your $20 back to me BTW) - that's the truth. It's no big deal - so no reason to get upset - I like the five I got that worked (heck I dug out your email to refer markdam to you) and you didn't rip me off for the purchase price - but I didn't get my 6 mags so I was a little disappointed - no big deal - probably just a misunderstanding. All the best, David Quote Link to post Share on other sites
