second shooter 22 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Sunnybean, we get saigas and veprs here, the most expensive is the vepr at around $1500nzd,to $2500. unconverted saigas around 900 to 1000nzd. the supply is not constant and often they are not avalible then the price goes up for the the next shipment. you folks have got plenty of good stuff at excellent prices, about the only thing we are better of in is silencers, no restrictions or permits needed, just walk in and buy them or spin one up on the lathe.

Scott Kenny 144 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 The Wife just authorized a Draco and another case of blastin ammo to go along with it...so a Draco will be my first for 2012! Sweet! I will be getting my first Saiga, an S12. Assuming the prices don't go retarded by the time I get back to the States in August, I should be out the door for about $1000 including conversion parts and mags.

YARP 300 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Paying on some FN Minimi 249 parts but I'll most likely get some more AR receivers before that.

NM0 586 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) XDM45 3.8 is the only one I'm thinking about at moment so far. Going to convert an S12 I've had in the safe for awhile too. Well another 5.45 is looking like a reality. Wasn't thinking that yesterday.

russellaerospace 4 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 I bought a SCAR-L on Christmas and picked it up from my FFL yesterday. I will shoot it for the first time tomorrow AM. So it's not the first gun I will buy in 2012 but it will be the first gun I will shoot in the new year. My Saiga 12 will be there for the celebration too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chevyman097 2,579 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 I probably wont be able to keep this promise to myself....but. I have vowed not to buy anymore guns this year. I have otherwise vowed to get set on more accessories to go along with what i have. Ammo, holsters, cases, blah blah, training even. I am already signed up for a class. I know sounds cheesy but i have enough guns for this year, i need all those other things i say i need. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kodaline 178 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 New Year's is approaching fast. I know I'm not the only one that will start it with a bang. Besides waiting for a S-20 (thanks ItsAllCreated!!!) and the Saiga 12S EXP-01-030 to arrive, I'm hunting for a good deal on a Benelli M4. I'll throw a factory collapsible stock, Carriercomp full capacity mag tube and follower, Gisselle hammer, and maybe some Freedom Fighter hand guards on it for compliance. Something like this... Or, for the zombie obessed... How are you going to ring in the new year? Sonnybean, maybe I can offer some insight. The M4 is one of the weapons under the 922r provisions, which supposedly don't count for shotguns anymore with that ruling a few months back. I could be wrong on that. Anyway, the way they can be sold in the US is two ways. They can have One Evil Feature, which, on these guns, is pistol grip, a collapsible stock, or an extended mag. Since collapsible stocks usually mean pistol grips as well, none get sold with them. What you see is usually the fixed stock, with pistol grip, and short mag tube. Your second picture has the short mag tube, but it has the collapsible stock. What many people do is change the amount of Italian (foreign) parts in the gun to make the gun meet the 922r regs. Most folks change the mag tube, the spring, the follower, and the forearm. Personally, I just don't care about bullshit regs that are now even less relevant, and I bought mine used, so who knows what config it came in when I bought it. That being said, the Benelli factory two round extension is out there for a hundred bucks or so, and that mag tube is in there TIGHT, so screwing on the extension is just fine with me. Also, I can try to find the info on the collapsible stocks if you want; I know of a guy who used to have them for 275, I think. Lastly, a VERY important point. Make damn sure the one you buy, if it has the fixed stock, has the machining cutouts in the recoil tube for the collapsible stock to work. The only difference between the Super90, or whatever its civilian designation is, and the M4, is those cutouts, and the only difference between the M4 and the Marine's version is the collapsible stock and longer mag, both of which can be added without tools, but you MUST have the right recoil tube.

Buford T Justice 17 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 I don't plan to buy because I am happy with everything I have but you never know. I would like a 1911 but just can't see paying the price. My goal is to do the two conversions I need to do and buy ammo and maybe some sights. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Garys4598 1,065 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Allegedly a customized Saiga IZ-240 Rifle that has been over in Hawaii for more than two years (yea. . . a few of you know about it). But actually, a rebuilt M1 Garand T26 ('Tanker') with semi-fancy walnut stock and chambered for 7.62x51mm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) I'd like to have quite a few different firearms. Firearms I really want... Priority. Rem 700 in .308, either the SPS Tactical or LTR... I've actually contemplated selling my Saiga.308.ver-21 to fund this Another Saiga-12, Saiga-7.62x39. and XD9 4" Service model. Firearms that'd be cool to have, but not priority. Piston driven AR10 Vepr 7.62x39 with target barrel SxS 12g, with working hammers and double trigger O/U 12g for clay sports.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like your knowledgable on the platform. Maybe you can check me here as I'm still learning. As I understand it there are basically two civilian models. The 1014 comes with the collapsible stock but only has two cuts on the recoil tube. So, it can only go fully open or fully closed. The more common 11707 has a fixed pg stock but has three cuts in the recoil spring tube. So, a collapsible stock will work in closed, middle, and fully extended. Both come with a five round tube. I plan to get the 11707 then add the collapsible stock. I want full capacity out of this "evil" gun. To navigate around 922r I will need to replace four of the countable parts. I plan to use a Carrier Comp full capacity magazine tube. As i understand it, the tube (mag) extensions do not count toward .992r. The full length titanium tubes have an added bonus of sheding 5.1 ounces off the factory (steel) full length tubes. The second US part I'll use is a Carrier Comp follower. The third pard will be a Gisselle hammer. For the forth part I will use some Freedom Fighter hand guards. I already have the stock, and other parts on order. What I'm hunting for is a good deal on the gun. Or, if a used gun comes up built as I described for the right price, I will buy it and sell the parts I have on order to someone looking for a quick and easy .992r package for their base gun. Let me know if I'm missing something here. Thanks and Happy New Year!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kodaline 178 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Sounds good. Consider simply replacing the mag spring and leaving the hammer as is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sidewinderl 43 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Never had any interest in muzzleloaders, but after watching all of the Sharpe's series, I'm pretty much convinced that I have to have a Baker rifle...maybe even a Nock gun. If not that, then probably an akdal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
