stix213 3 Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 One would think if you really really wanted to sell a firearm on the forum, you could pony up the small donation to become a contributor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No sir. It's not that at all. He got zapped for mentioning that the new Saigas are available in "a non contributor's catalog". The OP doens't give a sh** to sell guns, he just wanted to share the news. Basically, we're to the point here that you can't talk about Saigas unless you buy them from forum sponsors.

indie 0 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) i apologize. I dont sell guns, i just bought a saiga that will be my first ever real rifle (had a hi point 995), and i just thought id pass along some information for those here with an obvious interest in saiga's, and i've seen threads in this subforum linking to a converted version that was priced over 1000 dollars and questions asking when the 5.45 would be available. when i see a good deal, i just share with others who might be interested.. I only intended to pass along helpful information and did not mean to ruffle any feathers. I do not contribute to the site financially because honestly, I just got here, and i never had a saiga.

bigsal 757 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I don't need a link, but can someone pm me the name of the company selling them? Or is that also not allowed? One other question, do these rules mean no one can post deals on ammo or other deals as they come up? It's a great servous to me to know about the cheapest deals on the net, especially on ammo. I don't mind paying a bit more on some things in order to support the forum, but I'd like some clarification. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Indie... nothing but love for ya brother...... no warnings or anything like that.... it is my JOB to remove links to non contributor's sites...... it has just been happening with an alarming frequency lately.... the rules have been this way for a long time now.... some folks still like to rabble rouse about it..... a 5.45 sub forum is over due... sadly.. I lack the ability to make one.... I don't need a link, but can someone pm me the name of the company selling them? Or is that also not allowed?

GregM1 241 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 did anyone notice that they said on the page, that the guns wont be available until august. the price is nice though. beats the arsenals 1100$ with a big ol' ugly stick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I traded 1000 bucks worth of product for a WASR 5.45 and a spam can and a half of ammo a few months back..... that was the demand then.... life goes on...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depends what the $1000 worth of gear was. You may make out like a bandit in the long run, the raa units might not be that desierable. The pic on the offending website shows a rifle with no magwell dimples and likely no Izzy stamp on the trunion. I'm only gonna buy the raa units if they have magwell dimples btw...

When I go cruisin' the strip, I only pick the hookers with red hair and magenta eye shadow, cuz they're better in the service department than brunette hookers with the sparkly blue eye shadow. </sarcasm> They all shoot the same. A dimple and a mark on the trunnion have NO effect on the function. You people who are after "dimples" and "arsenal marks" will almost certainly NEVER have what you're really after, anyway, so I don't even know why you insist on trying. .

bigsal 757 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Well the desire for less magazine wobble and a higher resale value are my motivation. I swear Nalioth you must have some script that alerts you whenever the word "dimple" is typed on the Internet so you can issue your standard line of BS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I swear Nalioth you must have some script that alerts you whenever the word "dimple" is typed on the Internet so you can issue your standard line of BS. Why don't you get your chalk out and mark your dimples with it, and see if you get any chalk on your mags when you insert them. The dimples only, not the edges of the mag well.

Oh for gods sake, Your a ninja turtle with that argument! Here is a better experiment. Look at your receiver, than ask yourself if dimples protrude further into the magwell than a flat side.... Kinda obvious what the outcome will be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kinda obvious what the outcome will be. If you don't know anything about Kalashnkovs, yeah, I guess it would be "obvious". Unfortunately, the Saigas use the RPK method of receiver strengthening (in use since the early '70s on the RPK and RPK-74) which is "internal structural rails". These internal rails perform the same role in strengthening the receiver as the dimples do on other Kalashnikovs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nailbomb 10,221 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Not trying to enflame things, but my x39 dosn't have dimples and has barly any wobble at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinsen 86 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Hold on, are Saiga "dimples" the regular AKM oval at the magwell? I thought the dimples everybody wanted were the little score marks around the pins. I've never really looked at the rifles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
