Copes Distributing www.copesdist.com has east german mags that have been converted for the 223 saigas. Thery're very nice, but they're 50 bucks a pop.

I have a couple of those 223 saigas myself. I just sucked it up and had them converted over to regular ak mags.

I think the reson no one makes a dedicated high cap for the saigas has to do with the 922 stuff. If you simply stick a 30 rounder in there with no other US parts, you run into trouble with 922 compliance.

Be careful that you don't run afoul of 922 regs, whatever you do.

I use the Kvar 5.56 mags, but my Saiga is a Tomix conversion. I assume you are talking abut a stock Saiga.

Surefire mags work in the Saiga .223 without any modification of the rifle (no bullet guide). They lock the bolt back after the last round is fired, although the bolt comes forward when the mag is removed. Mine have worked perfectly.

I believe Surefire is about to market hi-cap mags for the Saiga .308 as well. FBMG has been selling 20 round mags for the .308 for over a year.
