    Damn just noticed the charging handle. Badassedness just went up like 17 points. :cool:

    How do you like the Ultimaks? I keep going back and forth on getting one, primary just to mount a light.

    Who polished the bolt and hammer? I sent mine off to "Cobra two" from the Saiga board to get the works.

    I did it's easy you just have to go slow. You don't want to heat it up to much it could change the hardness. I use double hook fcg's and mod them to be short reset. I'll try to post some how to pic's. It makes for a really fast gun :). One of my saiga 12's has a 1.8 pound trigger with 3mm of travle :eek:

    I'm Jonesing for one of these. I like underfolders, can the Saiga be fitted for one? Does the saiga accept standard AK mags.
