Bauran 11 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Ok one last question today, promise. I've been looking at the show off thread to about half way point. My question is that some have what looks like an extra pinned piece on the left side of the weapon. Just opposite the charging handle, on the other side. Most look like they are stamped and have what looks like a raised "t", low tail, long horizontal T. Like this one Anyone able to identify what that is?

YOT 3,743 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Dovetail for a detachable scope mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighPlainsDrifter 466 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) That's a side rail scope mount. Did I read earlier that you have a 433A? If so you won't find a scope mount on your build as the railed hinge cover will suffice. Hence no 030/040's have a side rail. You should post a picture of your new S12 sometime. You're the new guy and I am kinda curious what you purchased. Edited: I know you bought used. Sometimes owners take their side rails off. It's a shotgun, not everyone wants to use an optic.

Maxwelhse 1,285 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Out of my own curiosity, could one be added? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bauran 11 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) You should post a picture of your new S12 sometime. You're the new guy and I am kinda curious what you purchased.Please keep in mind I didn't purchase the weapon for the tacti-cool vibe. I thoroughly checked what important items had been taken care of; conversion (properly done) 6 possition gas reg., CCS puck, Knight's Armament foregrip and rail covers, etc. etc. I was looking for a new Mossberg 930 for HP but this was only slightly more, so I got it (with the wife's permission, am I right).

scoutjoe 276 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Yup looks like its missing the scope rail. Looks like it was on there at some point though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Why does the pistol grip/stock which looks to be all one unit, sit at a funky angle? and why does it look to be a right hand only stock? As it looks like you cant pull the trigger with a left hand... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Nemo 882 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Bump fire stock. Also looks to me like you used to have a mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
csspecs 1,987 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 That was a "shotgun study" import. Remember the ATF banned the import of shotguns with side mounts for about 6+ months back in 2011? Its one of those guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wagnikov 186 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 If there is one thing standard about these guns, it would be that there is no standard! Lol Hence no 030/040's have a side rail. Looks like a couple saiga's cousins from (insert: your state) had a little too much "alone time" in the gun safe! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
