flintnapr 0 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 For a while now, there have been absolutely no listings for Saiga .308's on the auction sites or classified's. Are there any commericial vendors that still have any in stock? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grizzlybigbore 0 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 theres one on gunbroker that has already been converted by a kalashnikov gunsmith. it looks pretty good. just search for "saiga" and it should be somewhere on the page. i think its like $650 though. if you really want one, and especially one thats already converted to PG, you might go with this one. then again, theres probably still some basic ones out there for a reasonable price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Krinkovliu 0 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Have you tried Ky Imports? They still advertise 308s in Shotgun News, and their web site, shown below, still lists them available for $240. I can't verify that they are still available or if Ky has been late in taking down the web listing. http://www.kyimports.com/rifle3.htm#Saiga Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monomonk 0 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Yes, try Ky Imports. They advertise them at an excellent price. But the 8 round mags are very scarce and ever more expensive. Let us hope that new hi-caps will become available this year. Monomonk Have you tried Ky Imports?

They simply haven't updated their website. (Unfortunately, many dealers with websites are bad about updating their webpages.) As well, Shotgun News ads are generally several weeks, if not several months, old. And I doubt they change the copy on those ads anyway except once every six months or so due to the expense. You can occaisionally find a Saiga .308 on one of the auction sites, but these rifles are fetching top dollar now when you are able to find one. I have an unfired Saiga .308 (with two magazines) that I bought in January for $320. Unless a new distributor comes along, I have no doubt I could get $400+ for it now if I was interested in selling it. Which I'm not! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boston Irish 0 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Check the "sale/trade" section on this site. I poted one at my local shop here in MA. I have seen it and if it is the same one (99.9% sure it is) It is brand new and a great price... goood luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cryptkeeper 0 Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 (edited) thegunsource.com say they have 22inch 308's for $300.25 Edited April 30, 2005 by Cryptkeeper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gtsteve03 0 Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I just got my new 22" .308 at a local pawn shop for $300 after tax! I'm happy, they still have a 7.62 and a 410 shotgun version available if someone is out there in north Georgia and wants one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
