Deadeye 325 Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Well with the fourm on the frits over christmas I decided to finaly do the conversion on my saiga 308 Its been waiting for like 5 years. All turned out better than I expected. I still have a fiew finishing touches. to finish. like the handgaurd retainer. The part I need is sitting in the post office. I made the wood set my self. from an old piece of oak firewood. I added a little check bump in. It lines me up perfectly with the scope. Things get a little dusty running the sander. all in all Im stoaked Its like a new gun to me now. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

S5snake 41 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 That looks great, I was tempted to try it myself but without the proper tools I figured I would spend 10 times the amount purchasing them than it would have cost to purchase a basic wood setup. Good job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deadeye 325 Posted January 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 It dosnt take that much for tools but if you dont have them I can see the expence of getting them. I am thinking of making some wood sets and trying to sell them on here when I get time. If I ever get free time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I would just stick to build then sell. But with 2 little kids I would not have much time for now. maby if work slows down some. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
