Pondering a conversion


Recommended Posts

So guys, I'm thinking hard about doing a x39 conversion. Not a full 103 conversion but I'll be part of the way. Plus it'll be good practice for converting a .223 Saiga to AKS-74 configuration.

 

Here's what I'm looking at so far.

 

Stock: ACE internal block side-folding skeleton stock. +1 US part

 

Pistol Grip: Arsenal US-made pistol grip, or maybe a Tapco SAW grip, haven't decided yet. (This doesn't effect parts count, right? Have to replace a part with a US made part, not add a part that wasn't there before, right?)

 

Handguards: Probably going to keep the normal Saiga one for a while, then might swap it out later for US made plum ones + a Dinzag bolt-on handguard retainer & gas tube.

 

FCG: Converted Pistol-Grip config FCG from Dinzag +3 US parts

 

Bullet Guide kit: Dinzag kit

 

Done this way, I should have 14 - 4 (FCG+Stock) = 10 parts, which makes me 922r compliant, right?

 

If so, it looks like I can be in for a new converted Saiga for about $650.

 

I'll be reusing the trigger guard on the rifle. Is there anything I should look out for?
