nyram 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Hey Guys, I am new to Saiga. I have been looking on here into doing the pistol grip conversion. How hard is this to do?? Is this something that is just a bolt on accessory or is there modifying required of the existing components?? I also wanted to know if this was legal in NY. Where would be a good place to get the pistol grip from? sorry for the idiotic questions. like i said i am new here and i was getting overwhelmed with all of the conversion threads. thank you.

Lonz 1 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Pistol grip is legal in NY as long as the rifle meets 922R. I suggest looking around here, you'll find all your answers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The rifle must also have a fixed stock and no other "evil" features. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Given that you want to throw a pistol grip on it, and it already has a detachable magazine, that means in NY, you can't have a threaded barrel, bayonet lug or telescoping/folding stock. Saigas do not come with threaded barrels or bayonet lugs, so you're in the clear with throwing on a pistol grip. Make sure you have a fixed length stock, and make sure if you get any mags that hold more than 10 rounds, that they are pre-ban, which is NY law. On a federal level, you have to deal with 922r. Read up, and read some more. There's plenty of info on 922r, and there's also some good threads on NY specifically. Welcome to the forum, by the way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
