Do the russian/spetsnaz saiga 12's use the bho?


Recommended Posts

I took the BHO's out of all of my Saigas and modded the safety lever on them. I am the QA/QC tech at an engineering and machine shop company and have some of the best welders in the world there, so I got scrap steel and cut it to right size for the finger extention. (2mm thick steel cut 5/8ths " wide by 7/8ths " long. Stuck it in a vise and bent it to a 90 degree angle, and had one of the boys tig it in place. A smooth weld job that looks nice when repainted and works great!! Gotta love my job!!

Got pics?

Mine stays in just fine, I put the bends in it like the CSS video shows. But when i was instaling after my conversion I actually put pin through the loop the spring made. This made it completely secure, it might be worth a try if you want to keep the bolt hold on.

 

As to the actual question if the russians use the bho, I am not sure, but would be interested in knowing. I would imagine that they do not. I think it was put on as an import requirement to make it a sporting weapon
