toecutter1280 0 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I just wanted to introduce myself, I thought about buying a saiga 12 for quite some time and about a week ago I finally did, as with everything I own I started wanting to mod the crap out of it so i have been spending a lot of time here reading here so I figured I would join. So far I am waiting on a few parts on backorder before the big change can begin. At my job I have access to large buffers and grinders so the first change was polishing my bolt carrier and bolt ill try to post some pics as I go if anyone wants to see Quote Link to post Share on other sites

toecutter1280 0 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I stayed up late last night and installed my first trigger/pistol grip conversion I think it turned out well but I'm definitely going to be replacing the shepherds crook with a retaining plate after fighting with it for 45 min I don't ever want to have to go through that again Quote Link to post Share on other sites
