Who do we have to nag to get a dedicated AK Shotgun subforum. I have posted in the Shotgun section of the armory, but they seem kinda fuddish in there. Really think we would be more at home in here!
 Opinions?

I have a Lynx 12. And a Beretta semi auto 12 gauge.
So I can see your point. Better to have an assortment. |

Why not post in the AK section?

You will have to ask Site Staff. Try VAGunnut.

For some reason I thought we always had an AK shotgun section here, but I never got into it. I picked up a Lynx 12 within the last year and went looking for that sub forum and never found it. There is some Saiga 12 pic threads and discussions in the Russian AK sub forum but a lot of that went by the wayside with the Russian bans. With the resurgence of foreign made AK style shotguns, that sub forum might get some decent traffic. I'm in if you can get it going.

I have a KS-12 and would like to see an AK shotgun subforum. I'm kind of fond of it as it was the first gun I bought for myself.

So the first question GB is going to ask is, "do we really need one?" and I'd wonder the same thing. How many threads in a week would be created in a "AK Shotgun" forum?

If only there was a forum devoted to Vepr shotguns... Someone should really make that, they'd be rich I bet..

Sure. I don't mind bringing it up, but there should be a legitimate need for it.

I dunno, the 5.45 shooters are already a lil' touchy about the superiority of the 7.62, you start talking too much about really big-bore AK's and they might hafta go to their safe spaces.

And the locals in each qualifying forum are very cliquy! And don't accept outsiders too well! Especially outside the box AK Shotguns! We just don'y really fit in, in any of the current available forums. what kind of beer or spirits is GB fond of? I am not above bribing him! @DJ |

Not sure a bribe will work. The issue is too many forums being so specific the dilute the conversations and you have less thread participation because people don’t see threads like they would have if more threads are in a single forum. Btw, to @ someone you have to use their exact username, such as @D_J (on a separate line seems more reliable, but it’s never 100%). |

You’d probably be better off trying to create an AK Shotgun Megathread and setting it to non-archive.
Veprs and Saigas are gone. Not going to be much new to talk about aside from crying. A bunch of Chinese clones seem to coming back, I guess some disambiguation about their variations and quality would be helpful. I’ve, uh, dabbled in the Turkish Benelli M4 clone world and spent a little time looking at their bullpups. But I don’t think I’ve seen a true AK shotgun from them. Is there anyone in the US aside from K-USA rolling a US-made version? |

That's definitely possible. @retroangles Start your thread include "OFFICIAL AK SHOTGUN" thread in the title. Yes official and AK shotgun in all caps, the rest of title normal non caps. I will see that thread as I read every post in this forum daily and I will set the Archive toggle to keep your thread out of the archive. Then I will post in the thread when that is done. Good luck |

Will it work the same if I just change the title on this thread?
or should I start a new one

I would start a new thread.
And don't forget the word "thread" at the end of your title.

I'm in.
Just did a magwell conversion so my Saiga accepts vepr 12 mags. First problem, dropping mags after ever round, has been solved. Now I need to figure out why the spring is jumping off the trigger where it rubs against the bolt hold open, causing light primer strikes and action binding. Runs great until the spring jumps, and then I get light primer strikes and occasionally the bolt gets sticky when it goes over the hammer. I will post a pic of it in final configuration tomorrow night when I get the last batch of parts! |
