ForGreatJustice 1 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 My understanding is that RAA will be recalling and making the guns compliant...isn't that so? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolverine 10,360 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 See the thread that explains the two main suppliers positions on what is to be done. TopGlock has confirmed those he distributed are to be returned for repair and inspection by ATF. PvtPyle is trying to get special dispensation to make the repairs under their and Tony Rumore's licenses. The bottom line is the ATF is going to want to account for the "fix" on every SBS that was imported. I would not rule out an eventual home visit if you have one and don't return it. http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=9816 Wolverine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think so it if it is a true 19" but I don't know with certainty. Why don't you PM whichever of these two guys you did business with.....or if neither, pose your question in an email to RAAC off their website: http://www.raacfirearms.com/contact.htm Wolverine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
expeditionx 1 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Ok so not a total recall then?I am one of the few that is getting an EAA version. If your Saiga-12 says imported by EAA(in Florida), you are not going to need to ship yours to RAA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wolverine I may be wrong , RAA shouldnt have gotten weapons that have an EAA import stamp on them. The receivers should have EAA buffed out, and the barrel should have an RAA import mark.

Just speculating but I think he meant he was getting or has an EAA model that had been scrolled over with RAA marking. Either that or he found a rare one that pre-dated the suspect boatload and is an EAA model that RAAC had no part in importing. But I believe he meant the former.

Wolvie I figured he meant he was buying an EAA S-12 imported before the suspected boatload. Hard to find anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TEXASAK73 13 Posted February 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 The S12 I'm getting is one of the last EAA imports before they dried up.Mine has nothing to do with RAA at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So expedition was correct. No need to ship that baby anywhere but out to the range. Enjoy!!! Wolverine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TEXASAK73 13 Posted February 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Yeah I am stoked,I decided to get this over a PTR91 this year.I have been wanting one for quite some time,and the AK smith I use had a few left,so I jumped on it and I bought another AK pistol as well.Both shipped today,I should have them both in my hands by the end of the week at the latest. Now if those 10 round mags come to fruition or Tapco gets off the pot with their poly 8 rounders I will be in heaven. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
