Guess I'll start this off, here is a link to a great website. http://3gunmatch.com/ I think you'll like it.

Redrum, by the way looks like TEAM SAIGA will be at the next NCRR tacical shotgun match. I guess some of them are done licking their wounds and want another try at the Tally Wacker.

You'll be happy to know that my barrel is now threaded and I'll be using something other than the factory extra full choke. Eric is very excited about it.
http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=7032 This time we we'll be competitive.

Redum,
Eric's Saiga is on it's way I found one in a sporting goods store in Wisconsin, so watch out next spring. Isn't the internet a great thing? I got it for $365 shipped.

Rumor has it that the ship bringing Saiga rifles and shotguns to the U.S. got turned around buy the U.S. Military to deliver the ammunition onboard to Iraq not sure if it's true but the sourse is very good.

Roll on Team Saiga

http://raacfirearms.com/ Great news Saiga's are now in the U.S. I have it on good authority that the first shipment of Saiga rifles and shotguns wil be ready for shipment to distributers next week 23 January!!!! 2006!!!! http://www.cafepress.com/shootergallery come get your Team Saiga hats, shirts, and bling.

I just can't wait for Redrum's tactical shotgun matches!!! This Spring

One more Link!!! http://www.saigasolutions.com/ This link is for those of you that are not sure if you want to switch to the dark side and go with a magazine fed shotgun because magazines have to be shipped in from over seas and they cost way too much. Well there is a company in Norfolk that will be producing reasonably priced Magazines for the Saiga 12 very soon, like by the end of next month.

You might want to beat the rush and get yourself set up now!!!!

Okay, we had a chance to talk to the new guy down at EAA about the Saigas. There probably won't be any more Saigas brought into the country. The ATF has ruled that the 7.62 and 223 rifles can NEVER be brought in - no semiautos in those calibers from Russia. The Russian American Armory was just a branch of the Saiga factory who thought it would be a piece of cake to import and sell guns to distributors. HA. Right now, it would be really difficult to find anybody who would want to import just the 308, 12GA, 410GA and 20GA without one of the biggest sellers. Soooooo. looks like no more Saigas, unless they decide to build them in the U.S.

Never say Never I respectfully disagree with you here is the reason Debbie at EAA oops I meant to say RAA said that they are on U.S. Soil!
http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?sho ... opid=76439&


they ARE on US Soil, and have cleared Customs as of yesterday. RAAC is processing orders as I type this, and the dealers should be getting them within a week. This info is current as of a phone call to Debbie 5 minutes ago. RAAC is sending them out to dealers in the order that they received orders, not by order volume as certain other importers have done in the past with things. Wow, what a week, first my FN PS90s start trickling in, and now Saigas are officially here!

As far as we know, RSR has some on order but haven't gotten them yet. we won't be getting any until a large distributor gets some in, the reason being a large distributor like RSR validates the product liability insurance they should have. We definitely feel that Saigas are great weapons and would like to get some in as soon as possible. Liability insurance is quite expensive and protects us and the consumers.

When you do get them I need a .223 I want to convert it myself for use in three gun matches. It's a Team Saiga thing, anyway Please contact RSR or who ever you choose to get them from and let me know when I can get one, mean while if you come across a lightly used one please let me know. I have ordered all the 922r compliance parts and am impatiently waiting to bling my gun.

Any one on this forum going to Black Creek to shoot in the next 3 gun match? http://bc3g.ath.cx/

Time has passed I now have a .223 Saiga and a 7.62x39 Saiga, but used my Olympic Arms AR in my last 3 gun match.
