TWGLADF 0 Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 ok. with all this "which mag is legal" crap i need some clarification. is it legal to use a factory 30rnd saiga mag in an unconverted saiga? is a u.s. made ak mag considered a lcmm? is it legal to use a u.s. made ak mag in an unconverted saiga? a u.s. mag counts as 3 u.s. parts so how many parts are needed to make a saiga compliant? the mag is three. a new piston is one. a hammer is one. thats 5 total.

SaigaShooter 0 Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 (edited) is it legal to use a factory 30rnd saiga mag in an unconverted saiga? One would think not, its imported semiauto, and haas a highcap mag. besides, where the hell did you find a mag? is a u.s. made ak mag considered a lcmm? Yes is it legal to use a u.s. made ak mag in an unconverted saiga? Only if you have 1 more us part (hammer. piston etc..) a u.s. mag counts as 3 u.s. parts so how many parts are needed to make a saiga compliant? 1 (hammer. piston etc..) But then you can only use US made mags the mag is three. a new piston is one. a hammer is one. thats 5 total. Thats one more than needed, but it works. You might as well do the conversion, i did it in one afternoon, incredibly easy, especially if your reciver already has the holes in it. Not to mention no doubts on legality if done right. I put in the us FCG (3 parts) and an arsenal Inc. gas piston, that way i can use whatever stock and pg i want Edited May 27, 2005 by SaigaShooter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TWGLADF 0 Posted May 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2005 i found a source for some 30 round factory saiga mags awhile back for about $35 a piece. i thought that they were undetermined on what makes a mag a lcmm. i thought that all u.s. mags were considered lcfd and any foreign made high caps were considered lcmm b/c thats basically what surplus ak mags are. retired military magazines. ??????
