JamesK 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 OK so I want to make a shotgun set up with little to no recoil & I want it to have fast easy target acquistion & be easy to use. Here's what I'm thinking so far: an AK-47 to AR-15 Stock Adapter (are the Saiga 12's & 20's the same receiver block stuff as an AK-47? I know the Saiga 12 Platform is similar but is it all the same as an AK-47?) http://www.makosecurity.com/Merchant2/merc...gory_Code=Other an Enidine Incorporated hydraulic Recoil Buffer receiver extension tube http://www.mesatactical.com/index.php?id=55 (bottom of page) or http://www.tacticalshotgunner.com/enidine-...ducer-p-92.html a Vltor Enhanced Modstock (EMOD) http://www.vltor.com/emod.htm an EOTech 512.A65 holo sight Not sure if I should also put all this onto a Saiga 20 rather than a Saiga 12 for even less recoil. (PS wife is 5'4" & 110lbs so the less recoil the better) Can't seem to find any Saiga 20's for sale right now either. Anyone know where I can find one cheap cheap?

JamesK 0 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Oh & I'm thinking of a way short barrel like the 8" one on Tromix. I think read on Tromix that there are no new orders going through right now or something because they are so busy (correct me if I'm wrong on that because I'm not sure). So where else can I get an 8" barrel that's threaded so I can put one of those shark brakes/breachers on it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saigafan12345 21 Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I hate to be captain obvious but for an 8" barrel you're going to have to get paperwork from the ATF. Your state may not even allow NFA weapons. Check up on that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL nope I live in the wild west (AZ) it's no problem for me & I'm getting familiar with the process right now because I just bought 3 sound suppressors for which the process is just about the same. Not being captain obvious. You may well have helped a newbie that had no idea & would've saved him time & hassel, so IMO it never hurts to ask. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BobAsh 582 Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I gotta tell you though, the shorty has more recoil than a full length. Search for Wakal's posts and see what Alex is doing with the mid-brake if you really want low recoil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BobAsh 582 Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I found it. See here:http://www.dreadnaught-industries.com/parts.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JamesK 0 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I found it. See here:http://www.dreadnaught-industries.com/parts.htm That is cool. I guess I'll have to add that to my shopping list now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Honestly, I have never considered the S12 as a shotgun that has any amount of recoil worth bothering with... maybe its just me... But then I am used to shooting things like the .308 Lazzeroni Warbird out of a Sako with a nice light synthetic stock, the .416 Remington Magnum out of a Ruger Model 1, and of course... Old Faithful... My .50 BMG rifle... Compared to those... I havent found a semi-auto shotgun that kicked enough to even think about... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but I'm willing to bet you can handle the recoil better than my 110lb wife. LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
