What is the story about the magazines and shells for these firearms. Do the shells get crushed or out of shape being loaded in a stacked mag? tell me what your experiences are.

Not loaded in the mag. There isnt any pressure on the plastic part of the shell just from the mag. You can leave them loaded indefinitely.

If you haven't reprofiled the bolt and you leave a fully loaded mag in the gun with the bolt closed it can deform the top shell over time from being mashed against the bottom of the bolt.
If you're going to store it like that use a slug for the top round, or store it with the bolt locked back.

Well jezus that was intoxicating :shock:. Now I want 5k in Saiga Legion 12ga shotguns mags and ammo. I had never looked into them or realized there is that much out there for them.
LOL yeah

It's a fun project...I want another one or two of them, but can't justify spending that much more money on a gun I already own lol
