theturtlepond 31 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Before you know it, you'll have $2000 in it and only 250 rounds through it. So make sure to buy some ammo before you add those extras. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

monkeybones 8 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 I have put about 650rds of federal bulk down range, Its really such a fun gun. Pumps are cool but they don't compare to unloading a MD-20 downrange. I just recently bought a SGL-2161 to occupy my time while the Saiga-12 is apart with guts removed at Pauly's. I probably wont buy another weapon for a little bit as the SGL2161 was a birthday present to myself lol and funds are running low Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hawaiianbasshead 3 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I saw a pretty big list, a paragraph and it was awesomely followed be NO PIX, wtf was that LOL, my "money pit" like the show with Tom Hanks as a movie with no fricken picture of the house... I'm not sure where I stand on size of penis really, but here's a pic of mine I have quite a list of things to add to it. starting with an OD green light/vert grip, matching, pistol grip, varmint light, tubular style red dot instead of reflex, vented shroud or large muzzle brake, and the recoil stock I ordered 3 weeks ago when I cancel my order from mako and buy it from a middle man who will actually send it in a timely fashion (mako is a bunch of azz monkies and I never intend to buy anything direct again from them and maybe I'll steer away from their crap completely perhaps!) anyway, at least I have a paragraph and small list to go with my pic Quote Link to post Share on other sites

leadsled 40 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Money pit? Nahhh.... Addiction? You could say that.... What forearm is on the one second from the bottom? And is the bottom rail to MIL-STD-1913 specs? I only ask because I have a Grip Pod that will only fit on a Picatinny Rail and found out the hard way it wson't fit on a Weaver rail.

I needed a good laugh. That took me there. I'm not that good at this stuff.... just passionate about it. Wait until you see my next "creation". The basic raw unfinished build should be ready to test fire in a week, maybe sooner if I can get a couple of good rain-outs at work. I might try to shoot some video of it running. Once again, I'm going where I've never gone before, so it is a slow moving project. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
