Your right about having the nerve. I'm dead set on getting this done though, and i know when its done i will love every bit of it.

I am actually looking for one of these, and would love to know if some one has found one. I take my S12 camping and hiking, so i would like to try another sling type. Is just not comfortable to have another strap over your shoulder when you are hiking with a large pack. I would like something i can just hang from myself and use the S12 without having to take it off. Take a look at this and see if it is what you want. You can attach a QD sling swivel in sockets on either side of the stock adapter. Or use a sling adapter plate. Doug http://www.randrtarge

I am going to be converting my S12. I worry though because i have no smithing knowledge. I dont know if i have full confidence in doing this myself. I have seen some step by step video tutorials, and it doesnt look to hard, but watching a video and doing it are two different things. What is the real difficulty level on the conversion? Also, is it something that should be attempted by some one of my (lack of) knowledge?

Thank you all for the info. Sense the post i have received my saiga and i am looking into a conversion . I may go with a stock at first that i dont have to convert the gun to use, but if i dont like it i will be converting.

I had seen that thread but i was still unsure. I just dont understand why people are putting so much into these and what its all for.

Hello all, i am new to this forum but i am here for good reasons. I am purchasing a Saiga 12. A good friend of my has the Saiga 7.62x39 and he loves it (so do i), and when it came time for me to get a shotgun i looked to this wonderful gun. I figure if i am going to get a shotgun then why get anything less. Now my concern is this, i have heard a lot about conversions on these guns and I'm confused. What kind of conversions are the most popular and what are they for? The only thing i was really interested is a SAW grip and folding stock. Isn't the beauty of the Kalashnikov design
