Hi All..
Getting a Saiga. centerfire has them for $319-$350, depending on the caliber.
I am leaning towards the 5.45 just cause it seems like a fun round to shoot. Possibility of doing some varmint hunting in the future, part of the reason leaning to that round.
1. Not too familiar with the 5.45 rnd, any input as too what avaliability of this round in the future will be like? Will not be phased out any time soon?
2. From what I understand if buying one of these rifles stay with 5.45 or 7.62 rnd, b/c of the surplus of high cap mags if I decide to convert it! Right??
3. Will the rifle be any less durable or reliable b/c of the higher pressures of the 5.45 round?
Thanks
Jim
