Frosty 9 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) I ask this because I can get Taiwanese S12 mags for $13.00. I can also get 10 round AGP mags for $29.99 sans shipping. AGP let everybody down by not offering the DIY mag kits anymore. Their site does not offer them anywhere...........typical.

Jasper 19 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Patience is a virtue even if it is hard. IF this new shotgun pans out to be reliable the floodgates will open for mags and parts. Bank on it. I also wonder about warranty work and spare parts but I seriously dont see how they would be imported and sold without these considerations. Im going to figure its just not sorted out or announced yet. The saigas were a long time getting things to the markets and IF I KNEW that they would import them with magwells, Pistol grips and mags that were as easy and reliable as ARs in the magwell config it would not be a contest. But it IS! AND Id predict if the Akdal makes a splash and the batfe does not move to jack with them an American company will step up to provide another shotgun similarly configured.

BobAsh 582 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 IF this new shotgun pans out to be reliable the floodgates will open for mags and parts. Bank on it. I also wonder about warranty work and spare parts... Yes, and probably faster than the S12 parts network since the manufacturing infrastructure is already in place. Warranty work will probably be handled in the same way (maybe even by the same people...) as the Saiga. And there are NO spare S12 parts available anywhere so I'm not sure where that part of the argument fits in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TonyRumore 1,332 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Clyde Woods at RAA told me that he planned to import spare parts as well. It appears the Turks are much easier to deal with than the Russians. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ram123 17 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 does anyone know if spare magazines are availble yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ram123 17 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I wonder if I should wait or go ahead and buy a few more 5rounders..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
