Sweet! What is the recoil like with the Saiga 12ga? Fairly light? I was wondering how much the semiauto reduced recoil in relation to say a pump gun. I always figured those things would be hard to handle really letting it rip with slugs or heavy loads of buck.

Nice guns!! I almost bought a Saiga 7.62 before I bought my WASR but price and my lack of tool selection to convert the Saiga later on led me to the WASR instead. I'd love to pick up a Saiga 12 in time.

The recoil isn't bad, John. Remind me and I will bring it on a camping trip this summer so you can try it.

That is a lot of ammo. I only have the 12 round drum and I just ordered some surefire 12 round mags for it as well.

I have an AK I did as a bolt together build and am not happy with it. You still have the stuff to rivet one? I will pay you to do it, time is scarce right now.

Yep....still have the rivet tools. I could do it for you or if you want you can borrow them. Pm me and let me know.

Nice Dave. The Saiga 12 is a truly BMF. My buddy is friends with a ATF agent, he says is high on their prioity list to have banned. It's a beast. Good buy bro.

X2. Saigas are made at the IZMASH factory in Russia. They make most of the Russian army's AKs. They made more rifles at the IZMASH factory alone during ww2 than the entire German country.
