xunan 2 Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Has anyone seen one of these or held one? Prices are dropping on the net and at local gun stores.. I was quoted today 360.00 bucks for a saiga 5.45... I have not seen one of these TGI Saigas and Im worried the quality will not be the same hence the lower prices we are seeing... Any input??

Looks like velcro that you cant take off. Guess I'll have to sand it down once I refinish it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VaiFanatic90 360 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 new guy here....just picked up a 5.45 today, had the same etching on the receiver with the TGI name also. As did I like it, besides the Velcro looking etching, wondering what the best method to smooth and cover that... Maybe cover it with JB weld and sand down to a smooth, flat surface, then repaint? Dunno if you'd wanna use (or waste) JB weld for that kinda purpose, but it couldn't hurt as you're not bonding any actual parts nor relying on it to aid structural integrity.
