Logan that's awesome! those Saiga 12's are outstanding! and when properly converted, are even legal in California! (PRK Arms is the main shop converting and importing them to California...legally!)

after Dan saying they have 410 and 20 versions i think im more interested in one of those......hopefully they have the same drum clip available so you could feed 30+ 410's through it.......that should work for deer hunting better and talk about slinging some lead, and since they are 410, i wonder if with a little work you could sling 45 long colts through them.....

The Saiga 20 has barely any market share and high cap stuff isn't readily available for it.

The Saiga 410 is pretty popular. Mike Davidson was thinking of making a 32rd drum for them, and both he and Surefire offer high cap stick mags for the 410.

Honestly, why would you want a 410 over a 12 for deer hunting? I mean yeah anything that goes bang is cool, but a 410 is pretty well worthless unless you're pushing a 3" slug through it...if you're doing that you may as well keep the 12 and run a low recoil 00 buck or slug round, if the recoil is an issue. These things aren't real shoulder breakers--actually are pretty comfortable. I'd rather shoot a 3" full power Dixie Tri-Ball out of my Saiga 12 than my 11-87 Police any day...

A Saiga 12 will push a 2 3/4 slug out past 50 yards accurately through the smooth bore...I can show you if you'd like.

There is a .444 Marlin conversion running around for the 410, FWIW....

Do you plan on tenderizing the venison while killing it?

Dad just picked mine up saturday.....BOOOYAAAAA!!!!!!

700 bucks after everything including a 12 round mag.....Dad paid for it on friday and Tim (Tim's Gun Shop Lakeland and Winter Haven Florida) went and got it that night and had it at the store the next day for dad to pick up.......I am ordering all the rest of the stuff today or tomorrow from Tim and having him do the conversion on it......NASTY.......the 20 round mag is like 350-400 bucks.....i dont think i need it quite yet......

Some guy was in Tims shop and asked my dad why in gods name would someone want a shotgun that held 20 rounds, dad replied with......

"Tim has a working tank in his garage and has a working missile carrier under his car-port.....What part of owning a shotgun that holds 20 rounds wouldnt he want."

God I cant wait for deer season next year......

here is my parts list for the gun with part numbers........

Trigger Guard: Tromix SGP75 ($40-50)
Fire Control Group: Tromix SGP35 ($40-50)
Internal Receiver Block: Ace AKRBC ($40)
Side Folding stock: Ace AKFX-FS ($125)
Forearm: Chaos Quadrail (hella good price until 7/31/09!) ($99)


Dan if it was my choice I would deer hunt with a Vulcan from a A-10 Warthog.........
