Hi i am a newb and this is my first post. I have been reading the site for a few months. I have a saiga 308 and now one in 7.62x39. when i went to the gunshop to fill out the paperwork for the 7.62x39 i had ordered the owner took a 40 rnd mag a put it in and made sure that it would work safely if the mag were modified. I was wondering if anyone hade modified a mag by dremeling the tab where it catches. and want to make sure it is legal to do this. thanks

The shape of the top of the mag is different as well. For an ak mag. You need to add a feedramp to a saiga for normal ak mags to work. You should find the directions for this among the information on the following site.

Once you have added the feedramp and modified the mag catch area then the rifle will physically work with ak mags but it is not legal. The large capacity military mag on a foreign made semi-auto rifle is not allowed. See the link below for primary resources on the laws that govern this.

You will probably need the rest of the conversion information on the cross-conn link to add enough parts to make you legal.
