Motopilot1 37 Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 im going to keep looking but if i dont find one i will have a saiga 223. for sale Quote Link to post Share on other sites
buckmeister 11 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 im going to keep looking but if i dont find one i will have a saiga 223. for sale I have two of the unfinished ones sold before ORF bought the lot. They are in storage (with the rest of my "stuff") and I won't be able to get to them until after the first of the year; I work for the USPS and this is a BUSY time of the year! I bought the first adapter from the guy who sold them to ORF, and the other I got at ARFCOM's equipment exchange. My intent was as yours, to mod my Saiga .223 but I may go another direction. Don't sell your Saiga yet. buckmeister Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Motopilot1 37 Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 ok well i will be waitin to buy thanks for the replies anybody has one they want to sell please pm me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bad Bob 0 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Don't sell your Saiga yet. buckmeister Amen to that! If you need an adapter, I'm sure you'll find one here. (There are also other magazine options available. But if you need to use AR mags to standardize, I can definitely identify! Hang in there! ;>) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dayanx 1 Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 The AK style magazines take some getting used to. Yeah I'd prefer to use AR mags but I'd MUCH rather have a mag well attachment like the S-12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Messiah Jones 2 Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 Any more word on where to find the adaptors? I tried "stanley3smithATmsnDOTcom" and can't even find anything close. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
withergyld 0 Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 (edited) Any more word on where to find the adaptors? I tried "stanley3smithATmsnDOTcom" and can't even find anything close. I ordered one yesterday from Derek at AZEX arms in Mesa. AZ. It has been assembled and a finish applied. It was not cheap but he still said he had several. They are not listed on his web page. He had one for auction on Gunbroker a few days ago. That is how I tracked him down. The adapter I ordered should arrive by Saturday. http://www.azexarms.com/ Here is a link to the closed auction with pictures of the adapter: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=91149430 Edited February 14, 2008 by withergyld Quote Link to post Share on other sites
avnate 335 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 To bring this back up...... Anyone know of any still available. I called AZEX and he is out and not sure where else to look. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maniac Jack 2 Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 (edited) Question: You just buy these things, pop 'em in the mag well, and voilla! you can use M16/AR15 mags? I've already installed a bullet guide in my .223 Woul that get in the way of the mags or the adapter or both? Could I shave down the adapter so that I could use M16/AR15 mags and AK mags? I am giddy with excitement, please cure my condition with information. Nevermind, my trepidation is over. I read the connected posts. Damn! I need to get me one of these adapters! Being able to use M16/AR15 mags is a must for conveinience as well as a SHTF situation. Edited February 26, 2008 by Maniac Jack Quote Link to post Share on other sites
55645 1 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 You need to open up the mag well if u want to use the mag adapter, here is a link that i used to help me with my converion. http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=17312&hl= Sadly its amost been 6 months and still working on my converion got the mag adapter and ar mag working just waiting to have some free time. working 2 jobs sucks dont really have the time to do much.

Maniac Jack 2 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Cool, I just ordered an adapter from Stanley. Said he's out on the West Coast, and won't ship 'til early March, but the check is in the mail. As soon as I get the thing I'll have to pick up a Dremel set and some steel files and such. I can't believe I've gotten away this long doing conversions with only a hand drill and a bench grinder! Anyway, I'll have to pick up a good quality AR mag - one with a solid follower. Anyone know where to get one that doesn't cost an arm and a testicle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Falcon66 1 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Noob here. Been wondering if anyone is making, or will be making that AR mag conversion adaptor? Seems like something that would sell, particularly since 30 round AR mags are $10. thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
