yes, most of the parts are the same. lockwork parts that is, when i converted my saiga 12 i use a tapco G2 FCG [fire control group, tirgger parts set] to replace the saiga OEM parts. you can get quite a few different upgrade parts sets depending on what you want.
the SAR series was known for it's trigger slap, that's when the trigger slaps your finger when the bolt carrier returns the hammer to battery. the G2 lockwork set eliminates that minor problem. |

Minor? I swear to God that thing used to get to the point that I didn't even want to shoot that gun it would hurt my trigger finger so much. Once I installed the Tapco G2 FCG it was like a dream. I've got an Arsenal AK and it's fantastic, the best I've ever seen. Never had a problem with that bad boy.
There was a video on YouTube of some dirtbag black guy teaching his three or four year old how to hold and operate an AK47 in a gun shop. Normally I wouldn't have a problem with this, but this guy was telling him that he needs to learn how to be a soldier in the war, etc.
I love those that think they're going to somehow last fifteen minutes if the SHTF without even one firearm. The guys that are coming for you have them.

well........it's better than exploding in your face lol.
people who have a personal hate on for guns are just plain idiotic. only fools and liars believe in gun control and that's just it. I have no more respect for gun haters than i have for screwdriver haters. It's a tool and you need to learn to use it for it's appropriate functions. after all a conservative is just a liberal that's just been mugged. |

I just bought a NIB Glock G30, Gen 3, in .45 ACP to add to the pile. 10 + 1, nice and small, highly recommended.

How can you have handguns in Crook County? I was under the impression that guns were all but outlawed in that violent cesspool. A friend of mine is a Crook County Deputy. He wanted to buy a rifle from me, but the gun is all but outlawed there, and it'd have been a major crime for me to sell it to him, and a big one for him to even have it. |

I have a theory, purchase 2 guns of every caliber so that you can have fewer calibers of ammo to purchase but more of it. The other thing is the wife can have her big gun and she can let her husband have the same caliber so he can feel as important!

Nope, I live in DuPage County, one county to the west. Much more Republican and Libertarian out here. I've been collecting for over 40 years, they accumulate like lint! Love the new technology in the Glocks, seems to be very reliable. I once read that "A 1911 .45 is the gun you show to your friends, and the Glock is the gun you show to your enemies." I've got both!

HAHA! I love that quote! I'm going to use it.
A good buddy of mine lives in Algonquin (Sp?) and says that it is the polar opposite of Crook county. Too bad the rest of Illinois couldn't secede Crook county from them and let them keep their sillines there.
I personally hate Glocks. They're ugly. That said, they just plain out work. They're reliable, accurate, fantastic ergonomics, parts abound, they can be taken apart with no tools, the trigger might not be match, but it's consistent and predictable, and the gun holds oodles of bullets.
What do I carry? Glock 23 .40cal. Goes everywhere with me. My first GLock, a G17 gen1 I bought in the nineties I shot easily ten thousand times without cleaning or oiling it. I eventually got tired of getting a black hand every time I went shooting and finally cleaned and oiled it. The darn thing just would not jam. Still have it.
When it comes to an end of the world pistol, you just can't go wrong with a Glock.

I'm guessing there is a Berretta 92 and a Berretta Storm in that mix. From 13 years in the future. |
