S12 030 type / Vepr-12 mag mod for smoother operation


Recommended Posts

I was playing with my new 030 and was a bit disappointed by the mag fitment. After looking over the lock up mechanism I got my mags locking up and ejecting like my AR-15..

 

Sorry for MSPaint, but you get the idea:

lol, I guess lolol

 

You have to do the same thing with promag drums on the regular iz-109

 

Did you also have problems with the mag catch staying in the unlatched position until you sanded the tab down?

Would the 10rd SGM Saiga 030 Legion magwell magazine work in the VEPR-12 without mods or with slight mods? I know LRBHO is not going to work. Any opinions/experience? Here is a link: http://store.carolin...Saiga-12/Detail

 

It can be made to work with LRBHO, another member did it. The SGM mags may need fitting. The issue isn't the mags, the issue is drunk brain dead former Soviets making these firearms.
