A friend of mine has a Saiga RPG he's trying to trade.

I've done some Google-fu, but can't seem to  find anything on it.

Any leads would be appreciated.

Thanks.....Pachucko

Who did the conversion and what parts did they use?

Not aware that Saiga makes RPK's, just long barreled ak's.

Vepr's are built on the RPK receiver.

My searching found none, thus the question.

I have no idea.  I guess it was a conversion then.  

I know someone else who has one; a local FFL, long retired and moved on, sold about a dozen of them several years ago.

It has to be a conversion based on the long barreled version. I am doing a 308 right now. It would be helpful to get pics for us to look over.

Isn't a RPG and a RPK different?

Pics of said rifle?  If it's a saiga it won't have the true RPK receiver like a MOLOT rifle/shotgun will

and ya a RPG shoots Rocket Propelled Grenades (RPG) while a RPK shoots regular old bullets

10-4, thanks for all the info.  I'll ask him for pics.

But to be honest, I believe I've lost interest in it.
