Well I broke down and bought a couple months ago... Just got her dressed up.

Nice setup.
My 5.45 Saiga shoots very well.

What green laser do you have mounted on there? Is that a Viridian?

It's an LXG.

Can you use double stack mags in those? If they are can you use ak-74 30rd mags in them?

No that would require a conversion using US parts.

And the addition of a bullet guide if you convert and want to use AK-74 mags instead of Surefires (which have the bullet guide as part of the front of the magazine body).

This is really strange,

every time I click on one of your photos I hear a ghost-like voice over my pc speakers...

it's moaning"convert me....please convert me"

 

[Babarsac]

Definitely needs to be converted to an AK-74 clone.

Bulgarian AK-74 magazines work WITHOUT modification. Tested with Wolf / Russian. Approximately 450 rounds put through them.

That's funny! I plan on getting the Saiga Dragunov stock to supply the pistol grip and NOT modify this trigger. I can just get a plum bulgarian AK-74 later if I feel the need. That plain Jane looking stock has superb cheek/chin weld. I like the simple two stage trigger on this one albeit heavy in feel. It gets smoother the more you shoot it!

You might find that the weighting is off with the thumbhole back there. I did with my S410 - now it is a convert, but still has a drag stock...handles a lot better, and wood always looks good.
