Plus some extras. :hurry: :hurry:
Beiruty, have you experience any reliability issues -- if concerned about using that for home defense? Never seen that setup for a Saiga 12.

Nice gun, as well, Pawpaw!
This shotgun was never designed to shoot weak bird shots (low brass). If you shoot slugs, buck shots, or high brass, it would function like an AK, that is flawless.

If you shoot weak bird shots, then it would not cycle and eject spent cases. If you would use 2.75" with speed greater thatm 1350 fps, then it would work great. Best are high brass shot shells. It would eject them 5-6 yrd to the right and rear.

Are you asking how much I spent on my Saiga-12?

That does look fun. Are the matches open to the public? What type of ammo is typically used? Are the matches held on a regular basis?

Yes matches are open for public. Ammo is number 6 lead or finer. Matches are held monthly.

Might try one of the upcoming matches, 9/8 or 11/10. They say,
We require that you use LEAD SHOT (6 shot or smaller preferred). No steel or other "waterfowl" shot will be permitted, due to ricochet danger.
To me, that means that the #7.5 I use for skeet is not permitted. Or am I reading it backwards?

You are indeed. #7.5 birdshot is smaller than #6.

The #7.5 and #8 that I have is acceptable? Cool. Looked around. I didn't know what size waterfowl shot was.

Pawpaw, they would let you use your Mossberg for this. We should try it out sometime.
