David Mark 2,452 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 After several weeks of learning every thing I could about the Saiga 12 from this site and others, I finally bought one. I just had the chance to shoot it today for the first time and I think that is the most fun I have had with my clothes on in quite some time. I was very concerned about the FTE issues I was reading about and was preparing for the worst but the thing ran like a swiss clock. Not a single FTE with Remington 00 buckshot on setting 2. I want to thank everyone who contributes their knowledge on this site and I look forward to posting more and learning more about this awesome weapon. I will be creating my wish list for the conversion now after I go annihilate the paper Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TR Young 175 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 I stand corrected! Go for the conversion yourself.... if I can do it, anyone can do it. I think that adds to the personal satisfaction when you shoot it, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We are happy to have a TRUE Saiga owner in our midst. Not that ours aren't 'true', per se, but you get to own one that never had to live life as an import. That's cool stuff! Welcome to our family.
