newbie question

[doublehorse 1]

If I get a stock Saiga .308, what do I have to do to make it able/legal to use high capacity magazines? Who can do the work for me (maybe a vendor on this group?)?

Surefire mags count as three US made parts. FBMG's as either one or two (depending on when they were made).

It could be as simple as replacing the factory handguard with a U.S. made one (Gilbertsguns.com has them) if you will be using all U.S. made mags (like Surefire mags). You can easily do that yourself with a screwdriver. Basically, you must replace at least 4 foreign parts with U.S. parts. A mag that is entirely U.S. made has 3 countable parts (mag body, follower, and floorplate). The handguard is another countable part. Dinzagarms.com has great information and products that can help you. A regular pistol grip conversion is actually very easy too by the way.
