Saiga 10 shotguns?

The ones that are currently "LEO ONLY", Configured like an AK, with the pistol grip and folding stock.

Someone will have to convert them and add US parts here because as an import, they are at the mercy of the Daddy Bush Ban. Once reclassified as domestic, yes they could hit the market.

So...basically, just like the SARs you can buy now...replace a certain number of parts, and you are gold.

Yes, but the industry must develop. The trigger, piston (I think), and stocks are different, so there's no current off the shelf US parts.

The pistol grip, buttstock, and fire control group (I think) are all AK standard stuff. That should yeild the required 5 US parts... I want one bad, it's going to be a freakin sweet shotgun, even if they don't offer for sale the 8 round mags (not sure on what classifies as a "high capacity" shotgun mag, I don't think they can import Russian "high caps" due to a import agreement with Russia).
