Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Traditional or Tacticool Saiga 12 conversion?
Posted: 9/30/2011 9:26:10 AM EDT
So I have no problem with modernizing the AK platform (or most guns for that matter).  But I usually I like to have a traditional example in the collection.  I got my S12 a while ago and I don't see myself getting another.  So when I convert it should I keep it in Russian looking trim or put a hogue grip, ace folder, and rails?

I love my "tacticool" S12:







That being said, I also really want a traditional look S12 like Red Jacket makes for Atlantic:

If I did it "traditional" it would have black synthetic from Kvar because I am pretty sure that is what ones in russian would look like in use.  To what extent are these used by their military/police?
