Mine is a 7.62x39. I used this youtube how to. It was very clear and easy to follow.

I have not fired it yet. Now I will take it to the range. I am going to do the entire front end conversion as well. Attempting an AK 103 clone.

Step one is completed... It is starting to look like an AK.

I believe they need the bullet guide.

I just completed step 1a. of my conversion. (Removal of trigger group, guard and paint.) I drilled out the 5 rivets and removed all the internals along with the old trigger guard. I then prepped the under side of the receiver where the trigger guard was and painted it with rustoleum satin black rattle can. It took more time prepping and setting up then it did to complete this. I'd say drilling out the rivets took 10 minutes tops. My trigger group stuff should be here from CSS tomorrow or Thursday. By the weekend the PG conversion should be complete concluding conversion Step 1. I'll post some pictures when I'm done.

Atlantic looks like they have them back in stock for anyone who is looking. $489 http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/shipping-rifles/saiga-iz-240-ak-74-rifle-detail.html?Itemid=0

The bimetal jacket (copper/steel alloy) on this leadcore bullet will attract a magnet.

That sucks man. I have some of this ammo and I did a lot of research before buying it. The headstamp says Tulammo and everything I have read up to this point says it gtg. I will be careful using it.

Wow just wow!!!

I got this one. Not burgler proof but it keeps out the little kids. Barska biometric safe. No issues so far. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004XSB5TK/ref=aw_1st_sims_1?pi=SS115

Mike,Nice to meet you. Thanks for hooking this up. Great bag! -carl

An AK has like 3 springs. Which springs broke? Obviously an AR since its an american based rifle is easier to get parts for but in saying that, there is no shortage of AK parts...at least for now. Get what you want the most.

Hey! I am in the same boat. My furinture parts from kvar are coming and I have the trigger group to be ordered this Friday. For mags, I am going the no bullet guide approach and just using 15 round SGM mags. I know that they are more expensive than the surplus ones but while living in this state, I don't feel like dealing with the mag pinning, ect. etc... If I move to a free state, I will then do the bullet guide modification. That's my approach. Good luck!
