.22 lr conversion?

[shmeddie 0]

Hey guys, I've had my 16" Saiga in .223 for about 8 months now. Now with the availability and cost of .223 I've been cutting back on shooting it. Does anyone know if there is a .22 lr conversion kit for the Saiga .223 like the ar-15 conversion kits? I did a search in google and here on the forums but nothing comes up. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Ciener makes one for 7.62x39 and .223 AKs I haven't heard much about the reliabilty or problems with the AK kits though.

Those are almost the cost of a wasr-22

And a wasr-22 may be a little easier to get!

I saw an entire shelf full of .223 at Academy Sports, $6 for a box of 20. I don't know if it's always like that there or of I just got lucky. Bought a box. Probably shoulda bought 3.

At $6 a box you should have bought 20 boxes!
