Hey I might have asked this /posted this before but I can't recall, so forgive me for a potential re-do...

 

I am interested in getting a quad rail for a Saiga 12, I assumed I would be able to buy a Midwest Industries but it looks like they make quad rails for all the Saiga rifles, the Yugo/PAPs etc, even making one for Vepr now, but not Saiga-12s?

 

I would really prefer not going the Ultimak route, its like $100+ for the top rail, plus $220+ for the other 3 sides / tri rail. I know Ultimak is the best, but when you factor in I need this rail but then am adding a Streamlight, a Lasermax, an Aimpoint/EOTech, and an AFG, I would really rather not spend $350 on the rail/handguard itself.

 

Anyway is there a solution to this I just haven't found? Thanks.

The Ultimak may be a bit higher priced than other rails but you get what you pay for. Just like your eotech. Your spending 500 bucks on that thing, couple more hundred on dressing it up, I dont see any reason to get a low to mid quality rail IMO.

Do u need a quad rail? A utilimak gas tube can hold ur optic and with offset mounts anything else u really need. At about 100 bucks its a great investment

Bad example. . But u can try and find something like this to put ur afg on...http://store.carolinashooterssupply.com/servlet/-strse-267/TAPCO-SAIGA-TRI-dsh-RAIL-HANDGUARD/Detail

 

Hey I hear you that you get what you pay for and Ultimak is the best but there has to be a happy medium out there.

 

And yeah I need a quad rail, I gave the S12 to my old man for Christmas, and he is psyched and wants to do it up, we are planning on an optic up top, a Streamlight TLR-1HP on one side, a green laser (maybe the Lasermax Genesis ) on the other side, and a foregrip (Prob the Magpul AFG but maybr somthing else) on bottom, so the four sides on the quad rail would be pretty useful.

 

Now I am not being rude here , but other than the opinions to get Ultimak, is there any others you know of guys or all you know of is the Ultimak?

I know of the Ultimak 'gas tube rail', the UTG quad rail and the ChaosUS Titan rail.

 

The UTG is junk. The aluminum is too soft.

 

The Chaos needs a bit of fitting at the gas block area (or your gas block) for the rail system to sit level. Top rail pivot point makes the mounting of red dot/magnifier combo difficult. Quality is first rate though. Requires removal of sights.

 

Ultimak GB rail also requires removal of the stock sights and drilling/tapping of the GB and FSB in order to fit. Quality is excellent.
