hubel458 6 Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 How are Saiga 12 and 20 barrels held in the Saiga actions? Are they threaded and if so what size and pitch are the threads. Ed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hubel458 6 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 So with the barrel with an interference fit into the front of the receiver, does the bolt lock up into the receiver or does the bolt lock into the rear of the barrel. Thanks for the help in advance, Ed 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sim_Player 1,939 Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) The bolt rotates into the front trunnion lugs, near where the barrel is pinned. Why do you ask?

hubel458 6 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Never owned a Saiga or AK, or handled one. Doing some wildcatting and checking and researching possibilities. Ed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
