technically its not original anymore since it was finished at least once already. So if you like doing that sort of thing and would like it lighter color, why not. Stripping and sanding it again will only smooth out any original 'character' of the wood that might still remain. But - look at...

it's been 'sporterized'. I don't know of any original MNs with shortened stocks like that.

I have and really like a mid-price Vortex Strikefire ($149) and a TruGlo red/green dot ($50). The TruGlo is doing very well on my Saiga .223. I have the vortex on a saiga 7.62.

interesting choice for a first rifle - but congrats all the same! They are indeed a hoot to shoot. Want even more fun - get a Mosin M38 or M44 carbine.

I tried to sell mine but couldn't get what I was asking for it. So back in the closet she went. Prices sure have come down on them at least here where I live. Good for buyers. Not a good time to sell them for anything.

Saiga 223. Only takes Saiga magazines. One 'conversion' is to add a bullet guide that enables it to take AK mags. The other conversion replaces and moves the trigger group forward, installs the AK pistol grip and AK buttstock. My Saiga 223 is stock, except I put on a Tapco telescoping pistol...

hey madcrater - I'm rusty on my Swiss.. is there where to buy in what you posted?

TruGlo for around $60.

check out samplelist, part of swfa. I picked up a bushnell elite 3200 3-9x40 for $149. New scope - it had been a demo. Works really well on my savage .308

yeah Hatteras - I agree. I love pulling out the milsurps. My M39 first time out with it, first shot, I got the bullseye. Lucky shot - I'm not that good :) But it is very consistent. My K31 too. But think about guns and technology - in the end, you have a widened part of a barrel for the...

what is it with the magnet thing? I don't get that. Have never encountered a range that had that requirement.

who here cleans at the range right after shooting corrosive? I mean, pull out the spray bottle of windex or soapy water or whatever and what, just squirt it down the barrel and pull the bolt and squirt it down too? I'm 45 minutes from the range where I normally shoot and I do the thorough...

I really like my Savage Model 10 .308 with Bushnell elite 3200 scope. The gun was $397 with a cheap bushnell scope. I replaced it with the elite 3200.

okay... silly me.. went and stared at it again. It's a "Westernfield" by Montgomery Ward. Model 730. Used to have a nice jeweled bolt - that is pretty worn. Bore looks pretty good.

yeah, it's interesting. I had to double take, but clearly "Westerfield". And Montgomery Ward. I forgot to jot down the model number - it was something like Model 780 or something like that.

I assumeWesternField is a now defunct brand? Also has Montgomery Ward on the barrel. Chambered in 30-06. Anyone hear of these? any good?

I hear ya. I have a Saiga 223 with the standard stock and a Saiga 7.62x39 with the RAA skeleton stock. Initially, I didn't like the skeleton stock, but after a few shooting outings, I love the skeleton stock pistols style grip much better than the standard stock on the 223. Actually, after...

at $1500 it's just too freaking expensive. Maybe when prices - not just Ruger prices - come back down to earth, they'll sell a few.

I got two UTG 978's on Amazon - like $31 each. Quick disconnect. Two picatinny rails. They work great on my Saiga's.

Cabelas has Tula 223 for $3.99 a box :)
