jdub23 21 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Just skimming and I don't see a introduce yourself thread so I guess the mods can move it where it goes. Anyway been lurking as a guest for a while now. I was a member for just a minute a while back but, guess I got deleted due to lack of useage. Well, I have a Saiga .223 in a 16 inch. Did the conversion myself using a tutorial found here I believe. I used the Dinzag flat bullet guide and a Tapco G2 FCG. A Tapco pistol grip and a Tapco folding stock "friend gave it too me," it actually gives a pretty good cheek weld. I have been thinking of using a Bulgy AK 74 GB and FSB and completely converting it but may just take a pipe cutter and remove some of the FSB and thread it for a brake/flash suppressor. I use a few Weiger mags, bought about 6 Galil steel mags from APEX and one Chinese .223 mag. The Chinese is the only one that gives me trouble "I had to bend the left lip up some to get the bolt to enguage the cartridge." I would have went with all Galil but didn't know they would drop right in w/o mod. with the bullet guide. I own a variety of AK-47's and this is my only .223 AK. It seems very accurate for an AK by the way. Not quite as accurate as my AR's but damn close. If I can see it, I can get real damn close if not hit it "is what I say." Its one of my favs out of all my AK's. I walk my 300 acres with it every morning and have gotten a coyote with it at over 100 yards. Other than collecting firearms I am a Registered Nurse but about to retire and do something else "hate it." I live in Alabama born and raised. And, I am glad to be hanging on the Saiga Forum. I am here to learn and help where I can. Thanks, jdub Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jdub23 21 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 how do you post pics? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Syndicate 812 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 you can upload them to another site and then when you are posting the bar above the text has a square with a scene, enter the URL from that site (hit properties on the pic and copy that URL) and boom or go to gallary and then add photos, it's pretty straight forward once you get in the right section Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't really care to begin with was just curious of the rules and then realized it was a stupid ass dickface thing when I made a post (is that suffice?) as someone said just send a pm to a mod, and also notice how after 1/2 of the first page I didn't say anything? *shrugs* it is what it is so new guy if you have a question, learn from my mistake, if it might cause drama, ask a mod in PM Quote Link to post Share on other sites
