    Saiga and VEPR mags

    What do you guys do with your factory Saiga and VEPR mags after converting your AKs?

    I have 5 that I dont know what to do with now.

    I posted all my Saiga surefire mags in the appropriate for sale forum here, and someone was happy to snap them all up at half the cost of new mags, and I was happy to put their cash in my wallet.

      While I have yet to install a bullet guide in my saiga, I have read that many folks have made them still work.

        saiga mags can easily be made to work with a bullet guide by cutting down the front edge of them. I buy them and use them in my Draco pistol. they work great.

          I didn't even have to do that to my factory Saiga mag. I still use it as I like the steel catch instead of the plastic nub other poly mags have.

            How much do you want to sell your 10-round VEPR mags? I might hold off on installing bullet guide if I have enough Vepr mags.

              I have one 5 round and one 10 round VEPR mag. I know the 5 rounder isn't very tempting but Id part with both for $15. Hardly worth driving to sell/buy them though

                and thanks for the responses guys. I think all my Saiga mags are 5 rounders so I doubt Ill get many takers but Ill give it a shot in the for sale section.

                    no sorry I live down in southern Riverside county. Perris/Temecula/Hemet is about as far as Im willing to drive for a $15 deal. I dont want to get in trouble so Ill start a separate thread for this in the for sale section
