Saiga 7.62x39 hand guard options?
i just purchased a Saiga 7.62x39 and as of right now the only thing i can really change on it is the front hand guard (still stuck in new york) but i was wondering what good options would be for a front hand guard set up so i can mount a micro dot (that will co-witness) and also have a rail system for a light or possibly a magpul angled foregrip. I have seen the midwest, but i also see that it does not co-witness with all micro dots, any and all suggestions (other then move out of new york because yes i am working on that) would be awesome thanks.

Carolina Shooters Supply has alot of options. Bought most of the items I needed to convert 2 Saigas from there.
A Republic, if you can keep it.

Think the most "challenging" part of a x39 conversion will be installation of the bullet guide. There is a video on CSS website.

Re: Saiga 7.62x39 hand guard options?
Unfortunately I'm going to spend the money on a gun smith when I do the conversion, I've seen the how to vids and I knew it is easy to do but most of the machining is something I don't want to risk, knowing myself and lack of steady hands and patience from time to time.
And if I'm not mistaken other then the saiga not having a threaded barrel everything forward of the receiver is the same as a standard AK just different furniture?

Re: Saiga 7.62x39 hand guard options?
Look at the Chaos Titan rail. It's a 4 rail front handguard, and there is a full rail that goes from the back of the dust cover and attaches at the rear leaf sight. It's pretty tits, but ~$275.
