BrutalGardener 205 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Check out Slick Guns for some really sweet prices on 7.62x39 mm, .223 and 5.45x39 mm. There is also the cheapest converted 7.62x39 mm I've ever seen. Nice to see such a price drop! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Salmonking 149 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Same with classic arms, though neither is a forum sponsor so hush hush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrutalGardener 205 Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) Same with classic arms, though neither is a forum sponsor so hush hush. Slicks Guns is a deals aggregate. These deals are at Classic Arms. It's just that, it can be really hard to find something on Classic Arms' awful web site. From what I remember of forum rules, you are allowed to mention deals from non-sponsoring vendors; you just can't post links.

marcusw882000 0 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I saw this deal earlier and I think i will buy one next week. How hard would it be to put wooden furniture on it? Would I be able to use any stock made for an AK? And one last question, where can I get one for a good deal? Most of the stocks I have found are around $100. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would I be able to use any stock made for an AK? And one last question, where can I get one for a good deal? Most of the stocks I have found are around $100. You'd have to move the trigger group forward, and any stock that fits a stamped receiver will work. Cheap surplus ones can be found on centerfiresystems online, but don't expect them to show up pristine. US stock sets are expensive but worth it. If you replace the hand guard you're going to also need to buy a hand guard retainer. Just keep 922r in mind. Here's a link on dinzang's site about it. http://www.dinzagarms.com/922r/922r.html It's a great price for these at the moment, so you could always buy one now and convert it when you feel the need or have the money.

marcusw882000 0 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I was looking at the third one down on this page. http://www.classicarms.us/semi-auto%20rifles.htm It looks like it is already converted to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
protected static 19 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I was looking at the third one down on this page. http://www.classicarms.us/semi-auto%20rifles.htm It looks like it is already converted to me. Yeah... It's converted, but if the one I saw is typical (and I suspect it is) it's very much an el-cheapo conversion with little attention to detail: gaps in furniture fit, sloppy welds, no bolt-hold-open lever. Also, the smith who showed me the rifle was dubious about the welds on the bullet guide holding over the longer term. I'm not qualified to judge the technical merits of the welds, but it definitely looked sloppy. It may be perfectly adequate if you don't care so much about the details. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saigadreaming 0 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Just ordered my first Saiga from them today...got the 7.62x39 basic model.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alecmcmahon 0 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Ordered one as well, Figured I spend the extra money and get the one that was already 922r converted. Hopefully the craftsmanship is not that bad. But $419 doesn't seem like an awful price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the craftsmanship is not that bad. But $419 doesn't seem like an awful price. It was either over at XDtalk or THR, one of the guys got one a month or so back. He was pleased with it, decent basic conversion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
St.Zu 2 Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 I have the converted one and I love it. I just wish I got it for this current price, oh well might have to get a 410 or a 308 or both at this price.

JackKelly 4 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 I ordered a preconverted s-12 from classic arms last week, I'll post about the fit of the conversion when it gets here. Hoping it's good, at 800 shipped the price is definitely right, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
