Re: New Saiga
When you start to fire yours can you let me know if you have this problem. where the bolt doesant seat the round completely in the chamber and it just kind jams the round against the prong looking pieces that come off the chamber, and bends the round.

Re: New Saiga
i just purchased one today....cant wait to get it! now off to find some 10rd's and maybe a drum :monkey:
Re: New Saiga
3inch 12ga from S&B with 15-00 buckshot X 11rds (10 rds in magazine + 1 chamber)=165 double ought pellets.
That is a lot of lead and grainage going down range.
Can't think of many other shotguns that can put that much lead down range, except for DD.
By the way, how reliable are the drum mags?

Re: New Saiga
I've seen quite varied prices for these..what is a good price for the 12's..as well as the 10 round mags..and what's with the 400.00 prices on the 20 round drums...I wouldn't mind picking up one of these with a half dozen 10 rounders & a couple drums, but at these prices....I'm rethinkng things...someone twist my arm...
Re: New Saiga
my buddy bought it when it first was imported.
He paid a paltry 219 for it.
I didn't get it then because the price made me think it was a POS. :wall: :wall: :wall:

Re: New Saiga
that is the same reason i didnt get 1 a long time ago too. that and because it was so cheap i said i would buy that when i was more "broke" lol....
the 10rd mags are going for a LOT more now since they are hard as hell to find....the 20rd drums are going for WWAAAAAYYYYY too much...279 new at atlanticfirearms but out of stock...but yet on GB they are going for 500 and more....

Re: New Saiga
After fitting it as per instructions I have run 200 rds through it and only had 1 FTF and I think it was due to the ammo as it was the last round from the first loading and I was using Kent mid brass 6 shot 1,1/8 oz 3 dram. After I slicked up the action I have been able to shoot everything on gas setting 1 and I dont need to use 2 at all which is advantagous as if you leave it on 2 and shoot hi-brass you can beat the heck out of your top cover and shoulder.stg2ahn wrote:3inch 12ga from S&B with 15-00 buckshot X 11rds (10 rds in magazine + 1 chamber)=165 double ought pellets.

Re: New Saiga
One of the most common "pet peeves" with the saiga , is if you load the magazine, over time the plastic hull of the shell will bend into an oval shape, causing loading issues.
That is, if your using magazines.
If you were refering to the drum, then I don't know what do say... that sucks.

Re: New Saiga
I will try and get some up shortly
Re: New Saiga
agparms.com
Get them directly from the maker.
They will be making a new batch of 10rd mags between now and the end of DEC.
That would be the safest way to go IMHO.
Good luck!!! :guns:

just got my email from AGP, my mags are shipped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :clap:
Re: New Saiga
All high brass should be fired on 1. Only use 2 for ammo that wont cycle on 1 and dontfzr confused wrote:So I still have not gotten my mags, but my muzzle brake is in the mail.

AND I MEAN DONT leave it in 2 with high brass 2 3/4 mag and 3 mag ammo. Your top cover will fly off and smack you after it beats itself loose.
Re: New Saiga

I will look for the adjustment.

Re: New Saiga
I've had this a while, massaging it into the bane of all zombies. Never shot it, though, but doubt it's a Vodka special. Still have to paint the triggerguard. I chose the paint for the cover and handguard before I got the SAW grip, so I'm gonna have to find a better color match. I was gonna anodize these parts, but it's too expensive right now. Also need an underfolding stock and iron sights. All it takes is $$. I'm also after some of those clear mags...
Re: New Saiga
Nicely done, I actually like that, looks great.
Re: New Saiga
I have the saiga in 410, 20, 12 and a few of the arsenal sgl20's and really like the build on them

Re: New Saiga
Update: I ended up reusing the factory stock for now to save a buck. It's a good shooter, almost cycles target loads every time on setting 1.

I know I am bringing back a dead thread, but figured I'd add my S17 to the mix.
