bookmanwv 3 Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 I am new to Saiga/AK-47 rifles. I have built numorous ARs in various calibers. My head is spinning about conversion and 922r requirements and the like for these rifles. All I need an answer to is what skeletonized stock will fit my 308 rifle that is an import? All I want is a pistol grip configuration without running into 922r issues. I plan to do a conversion later but for now just the right stock is all I need. All the ones I have seen that are russian made state they don't fit saiga 308 100 series rifles. Any help would be appreciated and I will try to do my own research via this forum in the future. Looking foward to learning a new platform. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
esminbritt 16 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I don't know exactly why you're after an import stock. My understanding is that you want as many U.S. parts for conversion. I thought the gun could only have a maximum of 13 foreign parts if you want to convert it. Ace makes great skeleton stocks. I would try the 8" first. I dont use their hinge. I use a Bonesteel hinge that I like a lot. The hinge doesn't count as a U.S. mad part since it's optional. The stock does. I used a molot pistol grip and a Tapco G2 single hook trigger. I recently added a Carolina SS billet quad rail with vertical foregrip. I like CSspec mags. The rig looks gnarly this way. I could be wrong on some of the specifics on the 922r. Maybe someone else can confirm this. I'm too lazy to look it up. I just remember going after as many U.S. parts as i could for my coversion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looking foward to learning a new platform. For what it is worth. The Saiga .308 100 series is a strange hunting rifle that uses odd magazines and strange stocks... The IZ-137 is NOT the 100 series, so if you have a IZ-137 you are probably ok to install the stock. 922r is a different subject. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bookmanwv 3 Posted June 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks for the replies. I have decided to convert the rifle after doing some research. I have a kit from dinzag on the way. I'll post pics when I get it finished. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TxAgSaiga1979 16 Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I have done 3 Saiga 308 conversions. I replaced the fire control group, forearm, stock, pistol grip, and used CSSPECS magazines. Simple conversion, and 922 compliant. I used KVAR stock with a LoP that fits me on 2 of them; it has the hatch to hold the cleaning kit. The third has a magpul PRS. I also have a 20 ga and a 223 Saiga that sport magpul CTR stocks.

bookmanwv 3 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Finished the conversation on my Saiga .308. Bought the kit from dinzag and it worked great. Very sweet trigger. My profile pic is of the finished product. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
38 Special 7 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Does anyone know of a skeleton stock that you can use with a 100 series? I have one and I'd like to convert mine at some point. Maybe it would be best for me to trade mine out, but the market for a 100 series is hard for me to gauge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
