Somebody has also altered the rifle to accept high-cap magazines, pistol grip and muzzle brake. If the correct number of US made parts haven't been used, the rifle would be considered illegal.

WHEN I FIRST GLANCED AT THE PICTUED SAIGA
I THOUGHT IT WAS SOVIET- BLOC -EUROPEAN SAIGA ????????
THEY HAVE HI-CAP MAGS. MUZZLE BREAKS PISTOL GRIP STOCKS SEMI OR FULL AUTO.
SAIGA HAS BEEN POPULAR IN ABOVE MENTIONED COUNTRIES FOR YEARS

These are all Saiga rifles modified by a private firm (not by EAA) with the correct number of US made parts to allow for the military butt stock and pistol grip to be legally added. There are a few different variations but most seem to move in the $400 to $600 range depending on over all condition. Southern Ohio Gun was selling these for quite a long time but I can't recall the dealer price and it was also possible to send your own Saiga into the same private concern who was modifying the rifles for sale to wholesales and have your rifle correctly modified. The last fellow who came along tried to dazzel all of us with his refinished Springfield wonder rifle and was not very polite about boasting what a fantastic collectors item he'd picked up. It seems that his only ally was a fellow named 300winmag. What if any signifigance this fact may have is still unclear.

If it has the built in side scope mount it will worth a little more. Mark's price range is about right. [8D]

Metco - Saiga does not import any "full auto" rifles into the US. Century Arms I think is the co. that refits these with the proper amount of stupid law parts...

You understand anybody could have refit one of the CDNN Saiga's with the pistol grip and high-cap magazine, as all the parts are legally available, and the instructions on how to do it, are on the net.
If you decide to buy it, be sure to get the documentation showing who reworked it, and that they used the required number of American made parts.
