Kalifornia legal Saiga 7.62


Recommended Posts

I bought one recently from a local shop, would like to change out the buttstock but I know it cannot fold or change length if I want to keep it up to Cal. specs. Anybody out there know of a decent mod that is sold out there in order to change the look but yet stay legal?

Have you looked at Arsenal/Kvar CA legal AK's? That might give you some ideas on what to do with yours.

 

 

Nope... But want to get the ball rolling on my build, will look at them ASAP! Just bummed at the options I have, but I know that the market out there will work out the supply and demand thing on these for Cal. residents.

You will be fine on length it's when you put on a pistol grip or a flash suppressor that you need a fixed mag, I suggest you check out calguns and look at their flow chart so you can keep it legal.

 

A definite no on the pistol grip and the flash suppressor, but got to keep that mag just the way it is032.gif Do you happen to know the length on that stock? It's gives no detail on there site, thanks.

Man, I'm glad I don't live in Commifornia.

 

Truth be told it's getting bad everywhere, I'll take what I can get for right now sucky as it is, I need my job and well to honest San Diego ain't that bad of a place. We have a huge Military presence that at least keeps the AR guys happy.

 

"Colorado should BEWARE that Denver Police maintain they can SEIZE your house or your vehicle if they find a centerfire magazine in your house or vehicle that holds over 21 rounds of centerfire ammo !!!"

 

If I was stuck in Cali I would likely use a standard poly AK stock and throw one of of these on it so that it didn't have a pistol grip:

Thanks for the link... That grip has me scratching my head? Is it legal?

Found this from them, got to find out length but kinda along the lines of what I'm looking for.

The length on this stock is 8 1/2". If you have anymore questions about any of our products feel free to ask me.

Yes the grip wrap is legal, it's what we call a featureless build, and with it you can use "pre- ban" more than 10 round mags.

 

 

Del Mar gun show is coming up, do you think that any dealers will have any on hand?

 

I live in SD too, have you checked out Parallax Tactical up in miramar? I know for sure they have those featureless grips. I was just there on Saturday picking up my S12.

And that is what they said about CA...it can and does spread! Sadly

 

I used a kvar nato for my buttstock and am glad I did. The warsaw is just to short for my liking.

Yes the grip wrap does "eliminate" the pistol grip and allow you to use 10+ mags you have owned. It is legal here in CA. I chose the mag lock because of ease and comfort with the PG. I have several 30 round mags that I have owned prior to the ban in CA. For shooting at the range I don't worry about having normal cap. mags.

I don't like the mag lock on a ak style weapon because 1 the grip wrap doesn't seem to effect the handling of the weapon for me and 2 if you go the mag lock route you can't use magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. With that being said we are getting real close to having the assault weapons ban overturned in California.

OK...So far I went with "El Cheapo" quadrail ($40) as well as the detatchable scope mount ($40) from Amazon, and a red dot from Big5 (Barska m16) for $70. Headed to the range on saturday, will see if mount & scope hold target and will work on a stock change in the future.

Hey sorry for the late reply, thanks for the heads-up on Parallax Tactical, I heard of the place but had no idea that they had a Saiga on the rack there? That place was so close to the base I just thought it was all 223 stuff. Went up there and have to admit the store as well as the merchandise was top notch. thanks again.
