J A 0 Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Well checking the Russian rifles page of my web pages I noticed the info on Saiga rifles/shotguns was really lacking. So I though I would ask you guys for some help with some research. http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jfreeman246/page_5.htm From the markings on my Saiga's a B-west imported 7.62x39mm Saiga rifle with a 93 serial number prefix,a Big Bear imported Saiga 410 shotgun with a 94 serial number prefix,and Saiga 12ga imported by EAA that has 2000 stamped in the middle of the receiver. Does anyone have a B-west imported Saiga 7.62x39mm rifle marked other than with a 93 prefix? Or Big Bear Saiga 410 marked other than with a 94 prefix? Or have other calibers/gauges imported by these two importers? What year/caliber and how is your Saiga marked that was imported by Kalashnikov-USA? What year/caliber,and how is your Saiga marked that was imported by EAA? How many digets and where are they on stamped on the receiver? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J A 0 Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 (edited) I started it in the fall of 1998 when I first got online with one page and now I have 8 pages dealing with AK stuff. There were a couple of bulletin boards that dealt with AK rifles but there was not anywhere that you could get accurate info. Searching the posts on the bulletin boards was a hit and miss deal as so many of them were inaccurate. The only site that had a FAQ was the AK-47.net written by the origional owner and it had about 50% inaccurate info with very few details. Even the books about AK rifles dealt with military models mostly. So with internet providers giving free space to make your own home page I started on a mission to provide as much accurate post ban AK rifle info as possible. I have been shooting and collecting SKS rifles since 1986 and AK rifles since 1990. I have kept up with the different models of AK rifles imported since shooting a friends Chinese AKS in 1987. Never missed a gun show in town from 1985 to 1998. Also worked for several friends that were dealers at gun shows during that time. So I paid close attention to what the other dealers were selling especially SKS and AK rifles. Edited May 3, 2004 by J A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
