Klassy Kalashnikov 1,393 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Like all his reviews, very, very long winded. He talked for 32 minutes did he even mention anything about converting? EDIT: Oh, he did, after 22 minutes... I really like that sliding stock and factory ghost ring S-12. Maybe they'll make a typical stock S-12 with ghost rings from the factory too. Edited January 26, 2010 by Klassy Kalashnikov Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Motopilot1 37 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 hes long winded but not too bad on the reviews, seems to be pretty unbiased Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Klassy Kalashnikov 1,393 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Very true buzz. I always get a good laugh that's been at the Valley Forge Gun Show in PA every single time. Every time they are there with Saiga rifles/shotguns totally mall ninja'd out with unconverted guns using 30rd mags and 40 lbs. of accessories hanging off the front.

I watched this already, some sweet guns shown there. I hope when Nutn' reviews the S12 he reviews both a converted and non converted one. That way viewers will know what you CAN do to your stock Saiga 12. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Nobody's said nothin' about that slick ambi safety? For shame! Where do you get them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
camon 233 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Fuck... after seeing this I want to get a Saiga .308 or the bolt action .308 LOS 9-1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
havok 21 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) You would think the people at RAAC would know how to pronouce the name of the firearms they import. I did not see a "SEGA" game system anywhere in this video. Edited January 26, 2010 by havok Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Motopilot1 37 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 actually that is how you pronounce saiga "sega" 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimdigriz 580 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 actually that is how you pronounce saiga "sega" Well, that's what most people seem to think. I heard that they pronounced it the other way in Russia. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
havok 21 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 actually that is how you pronounce saiga "sega" So I guess Izhmash drop the ball when they made this video for the S-12's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwIITTwh1DY Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MattCFII 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Nobody's said nothin' about that slick ambi safety? For shame! Where do you get them? Agreed!!! I was thinking of doing something similar if I didn't converted a .223 Saiga I'm planning on getting. That rearward extension would allow you to work the safety with your trigger finger too if you had a the original trigger group in, just the oppisite direction from a normal AK. Safeties are pretty much universal between AK platforms right (besides for a minor notch on semi-autos internally)? If so I could see this going on a lot of my gun. I have a BlackJack Buffers SWIFT lever on my go to gun and this one is a step better! Where are they getting them?!? EDIT: Dinzag doesn't do them, I'm going to email Mach 1 and Surefire to see if they do it since they were mentioned as the partners for those "Spec K" Saigas Edited January 31, 2010 by MattCFII Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Snoofer 138 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 i'd like to find out more about that new adjustable drago stock for the s12. finding a stock that's comfortable and long enough for my 6'9" wing span (i'm 6'9") is why i haven't converted mine yet.

Is the factory stock on your unconverted Saiga 12 long enough for you? If so then you can just do a conversion and continue to use that existing factory stock. The only reason most people install a regular (i.e. shorter) AK stock when they do a conversion, is because the factory Saiga 12 stock makes the length of pull too long for most people after the conversion is done. But in your case since you are 6'9", it's probably a good bet the factory Saiga 12 stock would still fit you just fine after a conversion.
