micah360 6 Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I finally found a Saiga .223 with dimples! Now to finish gathering up my parts (almost there) and then it's off to Will at Red Jacket for "AK 101 magic-time". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bad Bob 0 Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I finally found a Saiga .223 with dimples! Good for you, Sir! (FWIW, I felt a little sorry that my Saiga .223 didn't have "dimples" - until I noticed the Valmets didn't have them, either... ;>) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

micah360 6 Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 (edited) Dimples are supposed to help cut down on mag wobble, but the non-dimpled ones have the rails to do that... so you're not missing out on anything. Basically a dimpled .223 is just really hard to find and looks cool. I'm a BIG sucker for looks and rare stuff! Edited December 8, 2007 by micah360 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BigWhit 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I just got mine with dimples too. I love the gun but the scope rail I ordered for it that is supposed to fit 3rd gen. AK , Saigas wont tightes as the set screws have nothing to tighten on. It seems this one was fitted with the older cam lock rail, Ill have to try and exchange it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
