The 30's you have I got from here, rare and far too expensive this side of the pond.

It said the same way back then then but a quick phone call to the shop over the phone was all that was needed. Times have changed, alternatively there is always Oleg if you don't what the international hassle.

Mate of mine has a .223 Saiga. He picked up some AK74 mags and took a file to the front of the lips and the rear lug to matcg his genuine ones. Within half an hour he had half a dozen extra mags that worked well....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

i was led to believe the ak74 mags would not feed due to them not having the bullet guide on the front. will look into it though, cheers.

His file work is perhaps better than I gave him credit for! :lol:
