Looking for a shop that has experience doing this conversion. I don't have the time right now so I would rather drop it off and pay to have it done right. Plus if it gets screwed up its not on me. I want to use someone local so I don't have to deal with shipping

Contact chase at definative arms in florida. You will have to ship your gun to him but its worth it. I know you dont wanna ship out.. but once again.. its worth it.. if ur ever my way your more then welcome to check mine out.

 

Ill let shoot you a pm with his info.

+1 on Definitive Arms. But I think part+labor starts at $300.

 

One of the members here claims he knows a way to make some other type of converter work right.

 

do NOT need a gunsmith

NOT glitchy if done RIGHT....

this is a Saiga I built that takes AR15 mags..

Or is it possible to get my saiga to take the same double stack mags as my wasr 10

Bullet guide

y don't u speak to George from Paterson Gunsmithing. he is very good with anyting Russian build/ copied .

Bullet guide

 

Yep, just a bullet guide, about $20-$30. Beats hell out of $300+ and saves at least $250 for mags and beer.

this seems like the way to go then

Hold down you said Wasr 10? It's 7.62x39? Than I doubt it would work ...

I think only Wasr 3 was 5.56x45.

 

If you have Wasr 3, than just take a mag and insert it into your Saiga, should fit just fine.

i actually meant my 7.62 saiga and how to get wasr 10 mags to fit. Might just get 223 mags. i really dont want to deal with shipping the 223.

Make sure to follow 922r compliance laws with the bullet guide install.

7.62x39 and 5.56x45 are different in a lot of ways.

MAYBE you can have few rounds feeding from the mag (if the mag fits at all), but there might be bunch of things going wrong.

There is a reason why 5.56x45 mag is almost straight while 7.62x39 mag is "banana".

 

SGM Tactical/Surefire makes good 10 and 15 round magazines for Saiga 223 (no bullet guide needed), they are about $25-$30 if you can find them available. I think a while ago there were some for sale on this board.

Depends on how many mags per rifle you want to have, buying SGM Tactical/Surefire ones could make sense or, if you want a lot of mags and already have AR15s, probably conversion would be good idea.
