Thanks. Tromix makes a mean looking shark break as well but doesn't appear that it has any adjustable settings. Probably will be going with the Poly from Carolina since I'm planning on getting the MD-20 round drum from them.
Yeah the poly-choke is the only adjustable choke you are going to find for the saiga, although if you are looking for a brake the polychoke is not much of a brake, is really is intended to be a choke. Even though it was the tactical look to it, it has primarily a hunting/sporting functionality. Good luck and have fun.
Thanks for qualifying the two.
Yep, Greg said it literally varies from gun to gun as to wheather or not you need the different spring, etc. or not. I may get the sucker anyway in a few . . .
Yes, alot of bad looking ones alright.
They all cost too. Like I said earlier and while not the meanest looking of the bunch, I ended up going with the Poly to cover alot of bases. It was between the Tromix Shark Brake and the Poly, but that Warthog looks good too.I got it to be 922r compliant even with the factory mag.
I'm not sure what that is. Could you explain?In order to legally use American parts on an imported rifle like a Saiga 12 you have to modify the gun to have 10 or less counted foreign parts.
He hit it on the nose. I've yet to have a person come up and ask to count, but I want to be safe.
Thanks ND. Can't wait to shoot it also and congrats to you for having one as well. My additional goodies came yesterday from Carolina Shooters. The PolyChoke II, I understand, is easy enough to put on. Just unscrew the "stock" and screw on the Poly. The MD five position V-Plug is suppose to also be just a screw on. The MD 20 rnd drum, however, may take a couple of different fine tunings, as stated in MD's on-line video's. It varies from gun to gun they say. Supposedly still not hard to do. As soon as I get those items on, I'll post my pics. Even then though, it'll just look like the other bad boys on here. Btw, if you haven't seen all of the Saiga-12 video's by now, here's one that make me grin everytime I see it. Even though it's a super bad "full" auto" vs. just semi, his expression is priceless . . .

That's cool you got your "goodies" already! I likewise bought my conversion parts from CSS & was extremely pleased with how quickly they shipped my order! I placed my order late on a Thursday evening & got my parts on the following Monday! There is so many different ways you can customize/personalize these guns its awesome! I'd like to get the 5 position gas knob too. Also on the Saiga Forum there is a couple of guys that can polish & reprofile the bolt so that it will cycle any ammo, & also makes it easier to insert your mag on a closed bolt. That is probably my next mod (after my drum mag, lol) Anyway I haven't been on the forum for awhile, so when I saw an S12 thread I had to chime in! Good luck with your S12 build!
PS: the guy's reaction in that video is classic! I know I grin from ear to ear when I'm out shooting mine, lol.
I agree. I think that the conversion possibilities are endless too. I have to first see how everything works as is, then possibly go from there. They say the MD 5 position gas knob is a very good mod (on MD Arms site anyway) as well as the PolyChoke II. I like the "polish & reprofile the bolt" mod that you mentioned too. I'll just be glad to shoot it (ha).
