Saiga conversion finished!!
Well, got it all done today....took all of about 3 hours or so.
I don't know what I was worried about....it was so easy a caveman could do it....no harder than changing oil in my car!!
The internals are simpler to work on than on my Ruger 10/22.
If I had to do it agin, I'm willing to bet I could do it in 1-1.5 hours.
That was fun...what's next???

Re: Saiga conversion finished!!
I still need to do mine. Do you have a list of parts you needed to gather and from which suppliers? I go to the Saiga forum from time to time. I'm laid off so if I can scrape the parts together I want to do ours. The wife has a .410, I have the 7.62.

Re: Saiga conversion finished!!
Congrats! Now you can see how baffled I am the people pay money to have someone else do it. That kind of tinkering is my idea of a good time...
