IZHMASH Saiga-12 Shotgun Montage

The Saiga-12 is a Kalashnikov-pattern 12 gauge combat shotgun available in a wide range of configurations. Like the Kalashnikov rifle variants, it is a rotating bolt, gas-operated gun that feeds from a box magazine. All Saiga-12 configurations are recognizable as Kalashnikov-pattern guns by the large lever-safety on the right side of the receiver, the optic mounting rail on the left side of the receiver and the large top-mounted dust cover held in place by the rear of the recoil spring assembly.

The Saiga-12 is manufactured by the arms division of Izhmash, in Russia. It was previously imported into the US by European American Armories, although their agreement expired in 2005 and Izhmash is now exporting through the Russian-American Armory Company.

why would you put a bi pod on a shotgun

[weaponeer]

@hate1diesel - it doesn't have a bipod.

[TheAk47Enthusiast]

You should move the trigger gaurd up and cut the barrel to16 inches and re-thread it with one of those nasty looking muzzle brakes.

@TheAk47Enthusiast - The minimum length for a shotgun is 18 inches. My S12 has been modified since this video. it has the same stock which works great with the optics, and thats why I didn't go for the AK47 look.

how u liking that svd stock?

[weaponeer]

@pvtjoker777 - I have never had a problem with it, and I have used it hours at a time in combat style shooting. the funny part is I'm getting ready to sell a US version of this stock, but in wood, and it looks great.

@kyle82386 seems to be a brand of ammo with a common problem. what I can try to do is buy some of that ammo and "try" to run it though my S12 to see if it works. now mine has the Gunfixers Improved Gas Plug in place and not the stock one (which has problems with light loads). The improved gas plus has 4 adjustments rather than 2. now if mine runs the ammo, themn the fix is the newer gas plug if you want to shoot the cheap stuff.

@robotnikkkk Basically it is an AKM modified to be chambered in 12 Gauge, yes. It's not the best choice for most hunting but it works and the detachable mag is convenient.

[TheyxSeexMexTrollin]

@robotnikkkk Thats why you gotta buy one now. Alot of people are afraid they're going the way of the spas. If you think about it, this is one of very few (if any) semi auto shottys with a detachable mag. Probably do to it what they did to the spas

[robotnikkkk]
