Saigas are selling fast this week.been watching deguns.com and the number of rifles in stock are dropping fast.
They jacked the price $20 to $599 after the Stock Status went down 13
Been looking at that. But i really want a chrome lined barrel
Not a lot of 5.45 AK out there and I was on the fence for a long time, worried about if it was one of the 5.56 barreled rifles that went out, would the sights be canted, fit and finish. I'm not being paid or getting a discount from Widener's. I read where a good rise after the range with original formula Windex will neutralize the corrosive primer residue. Most of will never shoot 5000 or so rounds out any given rifle and chances are the receiver will stress crack before the barrel is shot out. At the price point I think it's a good deal. I wrote Wideners before hand and explained I could not care less about the condition of the stock was more interested in non canted sights and how the receiver looked. Asked them to hold it for a short time due to weather concerns and rather not have to deal with the shipper having a OOOOPS moment. They said let them know and it would ship, also said if I didn't like it to refuse it at the FFL and they would have it shipped back and refund my funds. Also have read where chrome lining is tricky to get a smooth finish in the bore. I've got chrome plated craftsman tools that have it flaking off and they don't deal with a bullet flying down them. If a friend asked if I would recommend the rifle I could honestly say it's worth the money. In the next 12 months prices will start to creep up I think till the election, then could spike the day after. It could be an investment if you didn't like it and held on to it for a while.
Just purchased this and received it, just over $500, didn't find any glaring assembly issues, mags lock up well and came with a bayonet also that is not included in the image on their site. Mine came with polymer furniture not in perfect shape but think a touch of Simple Green will do wonders. Yet to take it to the range. If the sights are true then not canted at all. https://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=10000021&dir=...
Just stay away from those trashy IO Incs.
