I'm not too fimiliar with this rifle. I know I should hit the search funtion, but what would you guys talk about with the questions.

Well, from what I breifly read it sounds like a really nice carbine in 308. First and for most, is it legal in California. How's accuracy? I have a couple of sks's and mosins which I love due to the cheap ammo. (but recently am wondering if we're ever going to get 762x39 again, no one has it). The accuracy on the sks's is good enough for me being semi's. Also, how much will I have to fork out. And where can I get one.....thx for your replies again......

Sorry, not legal in CA. Saigas are both banned by name and by association with the Kalashnikov operating system. I grew up in CA, but now I live elsewhere and have 3 Saigas.
 
If you are in CA and looking for an acceptable rifle, you would probably be served well by the search function. If you are on a limited budget, maybe something like the Kel-Tec SU-16 or a Garand from the CMP would work. If money is not an issue, seems hard to beat the M1A in PRK.

If you're question was just a curiosity, the Saiga .308 generally gets between 1-2 MOA. Mine does a shade above 1. Good luck searching.
