Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Saiga 12 mag fed shotty: Any good?
Posted: 9/16/2005 1:48:49 AM EDT
Hi folk,

Is the russian built, mag feed Saiga12 a reliable firearm?  Ive never handled one and was hoping for the ARFCOM expert panel to enlighten me!  Could this be THE solution to the combat shotty? Imagine: differant mags loaded with shot, slugs, less lethal, all  a mag change away.  Sounds great on paper.  

How does this shotty go in the real world? Does it walk the talk or are our vodka swilling russian freinds living in a world of delusion?

My only complaints with mine are that the mags are a little difficult to insert when loaded, and the top round  deforms after a while, so you can't keep it loaded.

The Saiga 12 fully lives up to it's AK heritage and we all know what that is.

Have two Saiga-12s; sold my 11-87P.  'nuff said.
