ramlake 98 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Decicded to start new thread for testing info on new imported 030's Range day with the legion 030 unconverted. So far great news!! This test is with a completly stock and untouched legion 030 IZ-433 using federal wallmart bulk pak and fioucci 2 3/4 HV buckshot. w/ IZ-433 4 rd mags...yes only 4 round capacity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THDfK2sq_3I I even built a short tappet but never needed. I have shown the 030 gas system to several other engineers and they agree there is not a resonable explaination on how it can regulate between pressure differintials. I also found the lower handgaurd retainer is held in place by the upper handgaurd. I intially thought there was no locking mechanisism. I will test more ammo and look for carrier overtravel in the next day or two. Someone ask about carrier weight: Just checked with ohaus triple beams IZ-433 529.5 grams 109 508 grams Thought it would be better to put all pics on one page also Edited February 6, 2012 by RamLake 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Funnie guey...you make me lauff reel haard!! No port work at all. I did disassemble my other IZ-433 and found 5 ports at .070" #50 drill The test gun is completly stock. This is really good news!! I need to test to see if the carrier is striking the trunuin with high veloscity loads. I don't plan on using 3" in any of my saiga's although I have tested in all 108 / 109's I own. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Me either but if they do prove to strike the trunnion, you could always just add a buffer for those specific loads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sunnybean 939 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think a stronger recoil spring might be better then a buffer... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bridis 319 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Why only 4 rounds out of each 5 round mag? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Caged_Bird 474 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Why only 4 rounds out of each 5 round mag? I was wondering the same thing... and I hope its not to keep the springs from wearing out... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Kilo 42 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I thought I remembered reading those were 4rd mags, I was hoping it was a misprint Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theturtlepond 31 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Its says 4 rounds 4 out of 5 times on their website. Some places it says 4 and others it says 5. Edited January 31, 2012 by theturtlepond Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The_Caged_Bird 474 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I bet they're close enough to 030's for you too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
