Bayoupiper 738 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 And are there any 22" .308s in it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigjimcalhoun 0 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Here is an email I got from RAAC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, the regular shipments will be starting up later this month. 12 gauges will start showing up late June or the first part of July. We will be getting our shipments on time after they start up... So a lot of 12 gauges will be coming.

CLYDE WOODS SALES & MARKETING RUSSIAN AMERICAN ARMORY COMPANY 877-752-2894 www.raacfirearms.com I wonder if the increase of 12's coming in will maybe offset the demand a little and drop the price?? wishful thinking i know, but anything helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JK-47 33 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Centerfire systems increased the price of a .223 saiga from 279.99 to 349.99 overnight! I hope this shippment knocks the price back down... I was just about to order one too....!@#!@$! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 The other distributers should be getting the new price scheduling soon, or have it by now, that goes into effect july 1st, but I am informed that that price SHOULD remain stable for quite a while. As for the open market price, I am not sure exactly where it will stabilisze at this point. Will - erronous reply, clarified it, see my following post. Just for you, on Sunday at 5pm.......please do not make me feel that I should need to do this again. I do not enjoy bothering people on business on the weekend, unless it is to talk some shop, or is expected at the time. Please note the time and date of my quick response to your inquiry since posting this initial reply and being incorrect. btw, when Clyde says "So a lot of 12 gauges will be coming." , he isnt exaggerating, and yes, there is an anticipated stabilization of the 12 gauge price anticipated on the open market at that time, although, honestly, I am unsure of where it will hold at, but I dont think it will be less at any future time........ I hope this helps, and I am authorized by the importer to try to comment on questions like these, in an attempt to lighten the number of repeat inquiries. Also, expect sometime in the near future, for RAAC to become an entity on this forum, and to be releasing information directly to you all themselves, as my efforts here have demonstrated to them, that it will lessen some of the generic phone calls and emails that they receive (which they dont mind customer questions), and you will all be able to consult current information directly from them.

Bvamp 604 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Correcting something above - There will be both barrels coming in, so yes, 22" 308 will be available again soon, as well. Sorry for the discrepancy of my previous post, which I have removed and replaced...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ripper225 0 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) oh yeah -- good news indeed!! i've been wanting to pick up a 7.62 as well as a 12g Edited June 23, 2008 by ripper225 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Saigas draw premium pricing, just so that you all know. Its gone up a little bit across the board. 179/279 rifle/shotgun prices are LONG gone...... get them before the laws change, is my advice........I know I am....

bigjimcalhoun 0 Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 That is why when I was told that my S-12 was $599, I swallowed hard and said, "thank you sir may I have another." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vultite 57 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 heh, i'm still happy i got a dimped X39 gun for 260 I don't think i'll be seeing that ever again unless i steal it from someone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 A number of 223 and x39's have gone out to distributors this past week, and you should see them re-emerge on shop shelves very soon, if not already. The next shipment is already in US customs, which has the first shotguns in it, that are the first to come in, in a while. They are expected to be at the warehouse sometime next week, and will go out to distributors shortly thereafter. The plan has been, and still is, to have it raining saigas. This is being done due to the threat of a possible change of the guard in the government, with possible heavy gun legislation illegally being put into place. Start saving your pennies, guys, its ON! I fear that by this time next year, Clyde over at RAAC will be on a prescription sedation, with what its sounding like is happening over on his end! I am sure that if he keeps a copy of his bank statement close by, he will be just fine, though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
