I want to add a Dragunov stock and move the trigger forward on my Saiga 12. I'd rather not do the trigger job myself, and JoJo's won't do Saiga 12 work. Anyone know another gunsmith in CT who would be able to do it?

I have seen a converted saiga-12 in ArmsX in naugatuck.
i think the owner did the conversion himself.

Give BMG and Delta a call

Ended up watching the videos online and decided I'd give it a go. Drilled out the rivets and removed all the FCG parts today, along with painting the bare spots left by them. Also dremel'd the rear sight off to accomodate the new rail system going on there. Now I just have to wait for the parts to arrive.

Would the Dragunov stock make it legal to own in CT ?

Yes...the grip is part of the stock and not a "pistol grip" (which would be a no go).

That's sweet. I saw a very nicely done Saiga 12 conversion at ArmsX as well. I have been wanting to convert mine to the skeleton stock.

OP - what parts are you using and where from?

Got everything from Carolina Shooters Supply (except for the rail, which came from Mississipi Auto).
