Title: New Stock For The New Saiga AK
Post by: twyacht on January 30, 2010, 12:54:56 PM
My new Saiga needed one thing right off the bat, a shorter/adjustable stock. Went with the Tapco, Intrafuse T6 Stock.

Very easy to install, local gun shop (where I picked up my last pistol), had them for $49.00. Online, their with 10 bucks or so, plus shipping so, either way...

Still haven't shot it yet, hoping to go tomorrow. Now it's certainly an "evil" black rifle.... 8)

No toes this time, just my ol, bobo Vans...

Probably a Giles sling, next that I can interchange with my Sig 556.

Just can't help smiling.... ;D

Very Nice, TW =)

Tapco just came out with a fore end for their models, if you want rails up front.

This is why you should always post on the classifieds here. Had you put that up on WTB I would have beat that pice. I had a deal for a Saiga with some hi caps on Gun toker (pre-AR) and ordered the same stock on-line as the rifle would have been illegal without it. Given that our local sheriff is an anti-asshat I wanted all 922r parts on hand before I signed for delivery. The deal on the gun  went south but I've got the NIB (still in plastic) stock. Would have traded for some AR mags or .556. Ask first grasshopper, your fellow board members will help you out. BTW, is this the stock you used in your range report?

Thanks for the heads up, seeing how the stock came with a 3/32 drill bit to pilot hole the mounting screws, I had the 50 bucks and just picked it up.

Will certainly throw out the next "must have item" on the classifieds. Probably Saiga Mags.

and yes it's the stock I used in the range report. What a great improvement.

No wobble? That was my main concern when I bought the thing, was whether it would work loose or not. I don't own the gun yet, but I'm not in a hurry to sell the stock because sometime this year I will probably buy one (or an AK) when the right deal comes along. I would appreciate any continuing feed back on stocks, mags etc as you continue to play with it. It really is a good looking rifle, enjoy it.
Thanks
