      Aaaand their gone. All saiga shotguns except the 410s are sold out. Managed to snag two.

      They do have these for cheaper:



      Can do those at $479 and $499 respectively.

          Unfortunately not. I checked with all my wholesalers and nobody stocks VEPRs for some reason.

              Norinco. Chinese shotguns are still legal to import for some reason... for now.


              But JG has a really good deal on them:


              They are really good people to deal with. Hey, sometimes I am the cheapest, and sometimes I'm not!

                I think the ban has more to do with saying FU to russia, then it has to do with the actual firearm.

                  I remember researching them in the past. I think they are some sort of Chinese manufacturer. I seem to remember they don't take all of the same furniture, they don't hve a standard AK rear trunion/tang. They are cheaper for a reason, can't use anything but lead shot in the barrels. Also I have read more than one report of them breaking the rear trunion due to insufficient mainsprings.

                  edit: here's the review I remember

                  I picked up my cat yesterday evening and fired about 150 rounds through it.50 royal buckshot, 50 federal 7 bird shot, 50 Winchester universal 8 shot the royal and the federal did great the Winchester ejected two the other 48 basically re chambered the empty shells. the gun itself seems pretty nic...

                    Ouch, looks like the Saiga was definitely the way to go.

                    Thanks Obama.

                      I just sold my last Vepr. I had 5 in stock. They went fast. They were 7.62x54.

                        ugh, I want one, but just can't justify it... all my 54R ammo is surplus... the thought of cleaning an AK just doesn't feel right

                          It actually sickens me to even consider such a thing.

                            China; Norinco I believe.

                              So a bunch of people ordered 5.45 saigas last night from CTD. Today CTD cancelled all of their orders so they can sell the guns at a higher price.

                              Why people still deal with CTD is beyond me. This is like the 4th time in 5 years that they have done this crap.

                                CTD is terrible about price gouging. I don't buy from them anymore.

                                As for Saiga, I am super sad. I Saiga 12 was on my list of want items. If I'd have known this was going to happen, I'd have gotten one this week instead of the AK I got an the AR...
