Yes, I've done a conversion on a .308 Saiga and a 7.62x39 Saiga. Its a piece of cake. The tools you need are a dremel or a drill, a flat head screwdriver, a hammer, some smaller nuts and bolts and all your conversion parts (ie. US made stuff, stock, pistol grip, fire control group). There are a couple of different options for a bullet guide and attaching your trigger guard. I would exercise caution if you decide to weld. Welding the trigger guard in place is no problem, but welding a bullet guide can cause problems. Here's a couple of pics. 76239  .308  Let me know if I can help. |
