    Look at polytechs..... perfect example.

    Is it an SGL or a stock Sporter saiga?

    Either way, yes it's value has gone up.

    I've been having grand plans for what to do with it, but that's $$$ and I don't even have any AK mags for it.

    I have one of these (NY sucks) had Chris Butler down in FL convert it to use regular mags. The stock sucks real bad but between the mag change and having it altered to use any forend it's not bad.

    Interesting. I never saw them for less than $1200 right before they were banned. I figured they were worth a little more than that by now (like $1600).

    Market sets price. You may be right.
    I wouldn't pay that

    I’ve never been impressed with ANY factory Saiga’s. They all need time and money to run properly. I still have 4-5 untouched rifles I bet I don’t have $500 total into. One day I’ll get around to converting. I do like the Molot’s. I only have one rifle from them but a few 12’s that I love to shoot.

    This guy started life as a Saiga 7.62. I did most of the work myself. Only the bullet guide install (cause i broke the tap) and the threading was done by a smith.
