machinehead 0 Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 not right now. im away from my house on vacation. im hitting up all teh gunstores around for mags. so far ive gotten one for $16 one $26 and one for $21. The mag is 2 peice steel welded together. it has a steel follower. it looks to come strait out of the magwell insted of angled like the s12. i dont have my saiga here to see if it would work. it looks like it would. it seems to be a 5 rounder, but no shells.

shooter2 5 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 so i opened it up and found a baikal steel mag. what does this go to? how much are they worth? Probably goes to an IZH-81, a mag-fed pump shotgun that was imported by EAA a few years ago. Here's the manual for that gun in PDF format... the mag pictured there looks a LOT like a Saiga mag. Similarities? http://stevespages.com/pdf/eaa_izh81.pdf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
machinehead 0 Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 shooter2, It looks to be for the IZH-81. The barcode sticker on the pouch reads IZH81 12GA 3" 5 RDS MAGAZINE. Are there any intrest in these guns. were many imported. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

machinehead 0 Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 That is the one. The right side is the part that holds the brass base of the shell. the catches seem to line up with each other. i wont be able to check it out till i get home, april 16th. its a very simple design. 2 peices tacked together. the folower is all bent metal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
