Yes, well, that's the sort of blinkered, philistine pig ignorance I've come to expect from you non-creative garbage.

Anybody have experience with the Tapco T6, is it any good? Does the T6 take other stocks like the magpul MOE's and ACS stocks?

Freedom, everything else is secondary.

Have one on my norinco ak (tapco) and the magpul ctr fit, and very snug. I took it off without to much trouble the tapco stock slides right off and has a bit if wobble never tried the ace

My saiga12 a lot time and money spent on this shotgun. From painting it, to HK sights, rails, trigger job and ace stock to the shiny skull on my charging handle. Will take a better detailed picture of it.

Is it still necessary to file the mag catch lever for the military mags? I haven't see anyone else make any mention of this. Where exactly do you file?

On all of the 5.45 conversions I've done it hasn't been required. On all of the 5.56 rifles I've done it's been required, and only a few of the 7.62's have needed it. But you really won't know until you get your specific rifle. |

And mount? ETA: Very nice build - you've inspired me to get a .308 Saiga. |
|
|
haha, thanks!
That's a Posp from Kalinka Optics. Mount is part of the scope. It's a very good shooter! |
|
|
Very nice traditional build....I much prefer that to the other versions,eg Saginov....etc.

I'm going to order a 5.45 sporter soon, and intend to convert to AK style rear... I'd like a folding stock setup, but I'd really rather have a left side folding stock... Doesn't seem there are too many of those available. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Done some looking around and signed up at the saiga-12 forum. Found that the ACE side folding stock should be the ticket. Found a vendor that has pretty much all the parts I'll need, and gives a 5% discount with a code he posted on the saiga forum. Since his prices are pretty much where I'd expect 'em, I'll throw him some business and get a discount while I'm at it! |

I've used ACE internal conversion blocks on both my folding-stock conversions (S12 and 7.62). They both fold to the left. Pretty sure I can just rotate the pivot block 180 if I want them to fold to the right instead. |

Yeah, I did some looking around at the Saiga forum and found a couple vendors... found the blocks that bolt right in to the Saiga receiver. Should make for a very nice clean install. I'm going to leave the front end, but would like to end up getting an Ultimak rail to mount a dot on. Too bad the IronDot isn't available from LaRue anymore... |

Are these things parkerized under that paint? Because I dislike the glossy finish, park looks better IMO. |

Whenever I get around to getting my holes welded up I'm going to get it park'd and cerakoted. |
