SVD inspired Saiga 308


Recommended Posts

I personally found the Saiga 22" 308 to be a really cool platform to make a rifle that fits somewhere between a PSL and SVD. The rifle has SVD Dragunov handguards. I made an adapter kit to fit the SVD handguards onto the S308.

 

The entire build can be viewed here:

Here is what I came up with:

130 is kind of steep for me maby I will try and make my own or wait till tax time

 

You need to have the aluminum pieces anodized-it almost looks like "bling" on your saiga. haha.

 

Very cool, I like the muzzle device. Can you go into detail on what was done to attach it?

That stock on a saiga 308... Oh my god... Exactly what I was wanting.

 

 

No way in hell would I cut my receiver that severely just for a stock though :\.

 

The PSL might enjoy having the set on it.

Thanks for the kind words. The SVD adapter kit and rifle still need to be refinished. Everything will be black soon I promise. I finished the metal work yesterday and really wanted to get the photos up to show people what I am up to.

 

I designed the SVD handguard adapter kit and use a CNC mill to make them. The adapter kit on my webpage is only for the PSL, the S308 kit that you see here is not available yet.

I was wondering if the stock could be slotted out rather than cutting up that fine Russian steel myself. Just a thought.

BTW, I think you're supposed to be a business member here before you start advertising stuff for sale. I could be wrong but you might want to check with the mods just to be on the safe side.

Thank you for the warning. I am not selling any Saiga parts here or at the website where the project files are stored. I only sell PSL parts at this time.
