New Toys......Kinda.

[Excessive Detail]

Just recently purchased these to bad boys for various reasons, but mainley you can never have enough, so here are two new additions to my collection.

Saiga .223

Made by the same people who make the AK 47, built and sold for hunting and tactical purposes. While everybody I know has AR 15s, I wanted something a little different, I mean why not go with the gun from the company that started them all.

Pics of the 10, 15, and 30 round clips, cant find a beta mag for it yet.

Saiga 12

This is my favorite of the two, based of the gun above its a semi-auto 12 guage aboe to fire pretty much any shot size you want. Its a pretty nasty little bugger, I mean there are other semi-auto 12 gauges out there, but nothing like this, I mean its bascially and AK that fires 12 gauge rounds, and being AK based, same goes for the .223, these things can go through hell and back. You can get a 5, 10, or 20 round mag for this one. Both guns come with a rail mount for a stationary or quick realese scope set up. Dont have one yet for the .223, but got a NCStar dual laser red dot scope for it. No magnification, but perfect for quick sighting with either the internal laser dot or the external laser.

Nice little pair of fun.

Now I can protect my detailing stuff, lol, just joking...... hope ya enjoy.

Man, you can build some NICE shotguns from those Saigas. I have a buddy who is a gunsmith and done some really cool things with them.

I know Ive been doing a lot of research, almost seems endless, I know i want a good muzzle brake and maybe change out to a pistol grip setup, idk, have to see.

Where are you located? He has made many custom muzzle brakes.

He is in Atlanta. I can talk to him and see if he is still doing things with them and building brakes if you are interested.

nice dude!

i like saigas. incredibly reliable action.

i have only handguns, but if i get a saiga at some point in my life it'll be 7.62. that's just so eastern bloc.

here is my friend's converted saiga, the only one i've ever shot

here is his mods list-

Saiga 7.62 X 39
ACE Stock (US Made)
Tapco Saw Pistol Grip (US Made)
ACE Internal Block (US Made)
Tapco FCG (US Made)
Surefire 15 Round Magazines (US Made) (NJ Limit)

Ultimak Tri Rail (US Made)
Ultimak Rail covers (US Made)
Aimpoint Comp M3 2MOA Reflex Sight (NVC) (US Made)
Aimpoint 30mm Picantinny Ring (US Made)

keep in mind we live in NJ so folding stock and some other things are not permitted.

he's got some ar-15 variant that is .308 - i don't care for it. it looks cool, but i'd rather have an ak or galil action.
