Cooper 0 Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I have a 16" 7.62 x 39. I'd like to be able to use foreign 30rd mags in it, and I don't particularly want to do a PG conversion. It's my understanding that I will need a US-made stock, as well as Dinzag's FCG to be within compliance. What are my options for stocks? I don't want to modify the receiver. Thanks so much. This forum is great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cooper 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 EarnestMayhand: Will that bolt right on to the Saiga? Any idea where I can find pics of that one installed with no PG? So, if I were to get the KVAR stock, the Dinzag FCG for non-conversions, and a new handguard (TAPCO Galil) . . . could I then use foreign 30 rounders? Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm correct the K-Var stock is made to use with a PG conversion, The Ace or Tapco has a PG as part of the stock and fits on a Unconverted Saiga! I don't think that you could reach the trigger with the K-Var stock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lonz 1 Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Yea.. I don't think so, the K var stock was never intended to be held onto like your monte carlo style stocks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Big Boss 21 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 http://riflestocks.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=93_106 All of the stocks on that page are 100% drop-in replacements for the Saiga rifle, no modification is required to the receiver or stock to use on any Saiga rifle. Also, another option is to use the FCG (I think it is 3 922r parts) and replace the gas piston with a US made one (Dinzag does it). You can also use the Saiga Galil-style handguard to get a drop-in 922r part as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

superA 289 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Is it difficult to replace the handgaurds on the Saiga? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VladTepes 160 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) Is it difficult to replace the handgaurds on the Saiga? depends on what you want to do.. tapco makes a saiga specfic hand gaurd that is a bolt on replacement.. the OEM one simply unscrews... you can also use traditional ak furniture but its more pricey.. you will need to swap the gas tub and lower handgaurd retainer to AK parts.. Dinzag sells a bolt on OR press on one, the press on one is a project..... but i would not mess with the press on one.. Dinzag Arms has everything you need no matter which route you take.. and the guy who runs it is really nice and helpfull...
