I was given 3 of these things as an extra for some work I did, they are brand new. I can’t find anything about them. I was told they originally cost $500 each and it looks like the company is out of business.

Can these be used for anything other than building a Saiga 12 from a parts kit? Do they have any value or was a tipped in scrap metal?

Are those the same as the fostech origin?


I wouldn't scrap them. Somebody, like myself, would be happy to keep a 12ga AK receiver on hand in the off chance they get a Saiga parts kit. Hell, use it to rebuild a damaged Saiga copy.


If you are going to scrap them send me a PM. I'll put them on the shelf for the next guy that needs one. Somebody around here is bound to need one.

I’m not going to scrap them, I was asking if they have any value beyond scrap metal. I’m also not going to give them away simply because I don’t need them.

I don’t know if they’re the fostech, I know literally nothing about them which is why I’m asking here.

For one fostech and alliance are not Saiga.

Back in the Saiga-12 heyday, we parted out five or six new guns just to get spare parts.
I later sold the stripped receivers on GunChoker.  I think they brought around $75ea.
