11525_1530300497 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 I had it all. I had all "my bases" covered. Home defense, personal defense, and even Zombie defense. SHTF, Bug-out, Bug-in, HITB, HUTB, Martial Law, Mexican invasion, Alien invasion, Mother-in-law invasion, name it! ARs, 1911s, 870s, 500s. Hell, I even bought a dog. An Akita. Even bought my 7yo daughter a Crickett with a compact scope. About a month ago, a friend brought to my attention I was lacking a "major SHTF" caliber. A 7.62x39. Dare he question my arsenal? That ignoranus! We had a few beers. I called my buddy in Charleston, SC: Me: Sup, dawg? Homie: Not much. Just chillin'. Me: Tard says I need a 7.62. Homie: You do. Me: Et tu, Brute? Homie: Yes. And stfu. Get a Saiga. Me: A who? Homie: A Saiga. Google it dipshit. I got a .223. Love it. Me: Thanks, Bro. And tell your wife and my kid "Daddy says hello." <CUT TO THREE WEEKS AGO> Jeeze. I guess ya'll know how hard those have been to find lately. I found out. But, Hero (that's me) found one. At a gun show this past weekend. $295 out the door. Not bad all things considered. Anyways, here I go again. New platform. New expenses. I don't care. I hope my wife does leave me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GPalmer 1 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Uhhh, I bet you got the 7.62mm didn't you? Well, you also need something for short range home defense so you'll need a Saiga 12 also. And you really, really need at least one Tromix SBS... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobra 76 two 2,677 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Welcome to the club! But the worst ain't even over yet! Soon you will be wanting one of each. Just wait til you get your hands on a Saiga-12! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agias 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Good, now throw out the AR-15 and the pump shotty, and replace them with a Saiga 223 and a Saiga 12. You know you want to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bayoupiper 738 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 I saw a x39 Saiga at a gun show a couple of weekends ago for about that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RockHoundTX 10 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Sorry, you are not a true Saiga convert until you have a Saiga-12. Now those things are as addictive as crack. Being able to dump 10 rounds (soon to be 20) of 12 gauge as fast as you can pull the trigger definitely gets everyone's attention. Of course, things go down hill QUICKLY from there: RedDragon .308, S-.410, a couple of 7.62s, S-12s, ..... Damn, I didn't realize I had that many Saigas until I started typing this..... Ouch, I am an addict.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waltham_41 52 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Once you get a Saiga 12 its all over but spending a shit load of money to make it a lean mean killing machine I have had Glockers avatar for a while saved, but have yet to be able to make it a moveable gif desktop When she is not moving she is cute, but it just aint the same Edited for my usual spelling mistakes Edited July 2, 2008 by waltham_41 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Got a x39. Cobra is helping me plan some stuff now. I can't buy a gun and leave it alone. Welcome to the party, your gonna need more money. Hey, I've cut my beer drinking down to a six pack a night because of a gun habit. That's the best I can do. Somethings gotta take the edge off the wife.

Kwicko 8 Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Yup, it's all true. Thanks to this board, I find myself looking longingly at Saiga-12s now. It's an addiction, all right, but it's not as bad as some, and at least you can get some money back out of it - if you can ever be persuaded to SELL any of your toys, that is!

macbeau 902 Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 One day, I'll have to scoot up your way and let you spend some "quality time" with it... I'll even bring all the fun accessories I have for it. (It's almost the Mr. Potato Head of the gun world). I have been meaning to make that trip for a while now. Hopefully, sometime this summer...
