SAIGA 12 - RUSSIAN AK SHOTGUN

[Music] what is up you sexy YouTube mother lovers ever since the double stack Makarov video you guys have been asking to see more stuff out of my personal collection now I usually don't show that kind of stuff off on the channel but I'll make an exception this time because it's cool this is the Saiga 12 or the Saiga 12 depending on how much you want to LARP as a Russian [Music] so if you haven't figured it out already these saiga-12 is an ache a pattern shotgun chambered in 12-gauge and it's kind of the [ __ ] this one here I've had for a while I actually stole some parts off of it for the v1 aka 50 but I just recently put a converter trigger guard back on it riveted that thing on I wanted to do this video now because a lot of you guys have been asking see a 12-gauge okay and I don't know if you guys know the second one exists or not if you don't you should because it's also but I've also decided I'm gonna do some cool stuff to it I'll talk about the upgrades I want to do later but I wanted to show you guys just oh my god a bug kamikaze to me right in the middle of that take right in my [ __ ] eyeball [Music] magazine is very convenient for storage quick deploy anyhow we'll talk more about what I'm gonna do to this thing later but first what if you wanted to buy a second one but it's the apocalypse the US dollar is worthless more worthless Bitcoin is also worthless because you have no electricity but fear not for you invested in a core goal acre gold is a gold subscription service you can subscribe for 30 or 50 dollars per month when you bank enough for a two point 5 gram bar they send it right to your door you can always change your plan or cancel why would you you turn a little paper money into some precious metals I've had a goal to my portfolio of brass lead and of course steel so check them out using my link in the description and let's get back to the range let's get song [Music] so let's calm things down a little bit this to a core is just an ache a that is shotgun there's a little bit more to it than that but very very much a K in fact Saiga the sagas are made in a factory called no I'm going to butcher these Russian word but is mash which is now I think joined with is veg which were the original they were original aka plants in Russia that manufactured aks and now they are Kalashnikov concern I think the Russian government got involved and turned both factories into one conglomerate you don't care about that you want to see [ __ ] get blown up we're gonna do that first just look at these guess it's one of the things that is kind of cool and unique about saiga-12 you take the dust cover off and well that's not unique you take the dust cover off on any a k disassembly but what's neat about the second ball is that the recoil spring here has a little bit of dust cover on it and it's not self captured on the end with the recoil spring assembly cap i guess you'd call it like other aks are this is just two separate springs this piece in the middle to the dust cover or a little piece of dust cover it actually moves you can see when firing I would guess to give it extra clearance for rejection because the 12-gauge a fire 12-gauge shell is kind of a monster if you're trying to get that thing out of the chamber it's it's pretty big needs a lot of clearance space just like your mother is the bolt and carrier assembly here is rad so again very much aka it's kind of a shallow cam groove but it's pretty neat they have a cutaway up top there for where the recoil spring sits kind of a shorter gas piston but interestingly you actually have a cutaway on the side of the piston here the reason for that I'm sure is just ejection clearance as like said the shotgun shells that were rejecting here open up off the ground the shells rejecting are pretty large when you compare it to how hard is it going to be to find 762 dressed and I found one that is a very significant difference as far as how much space you need to have them leave the chamber and leave and eject to the side of the gun room one of the things that I believe on the Saiga 12 the reason they made this design decision instead of having a top rail they just have the smaller rail bottom instead of have an upper and lower rail they just have one and it just sits in that groove and it's slightly below the surface and that's so I guess they could do cutaways like this without having to jeopardize the bolt carrier staying in the receiver and the ejector it's still a shark fin style ejector kind of I mean it's just it's a little manual ejector it's not a plunger spring or anything like that just a little piece of metal here that kicks the back of the casing and tosses it up out the side and so that's why you have that cutaway on the bottom and the dust cover also has a pretty good cut away as well this kind of sits there when the gun is operating but of course when it when it shoots when the gun cycling this tracks into the dust cover so you have all this space so that a shotgun shell can fit through the side the front trunnion on the Saiga 12 kind of has that appearance of the type 1a K which I always thought was kind of cool just another little design thing there other than that's very a K design fire control groups very it's it's an a k selectors and aka I mean this thing likes it Ivan let's make a case shoot shotgun bullet that's how you got sucker twelve also have an adjustable gas system which is okay spring loading firing pin and kind of a funky looking bolt compared to a standard eight K but at the same time and you just have your extractor there and of course your clearance for where the ejector goes but it's very much still just a K it came your bull can they're just back forward I'll set that back in the recoil spring back in to make sure that that's not in jamming against the back bull carrier there hit this little tab in push this down tight and you have that little button there when you're disassembling that you know stops this from disassembling itself as precise you have traditional shotgun bead sights you got a little rear sight here you do not have an adjustable sight kind of like dak because let's face it it's a [ __ ] shotgun and you have your bead sight up five originally these can sport rise so the true group was moved to the rear and they had that we're just compliance stock so it was a sporter gun so it could be imported in the country but of course any reasonable American unfucked this thing immediately so you can put a standard pistol grip and a standard a case stock back on it hence these little holes here where the conversion was I don't know what else do you want for me let's shoot this thing I was always told that variety is the spice of life potentially why I have an issue to this day with monogamy but aside from that I've also brought a variety of shotgun shells to test today I have what we've been using today which is double dot buck I have a solid slug it's a solid projectile and I have flechette s-- now the flechette is lower breasts more of like a softer shooting target load but it's also if you don't know if the shed is it's full of [ __ ] nails little fins on them to make them fly better and hurt horse but what are we gonna be shooting these things at well I'm glad you asked because today we are going to be continuing to fight the war on obesity and we have three full sugar two litres of name-brand soda because we big ballers like that I think we're gonna start the natural progression as one does double-aught buck then the slug then the flu shots just to kind of compare what the damage is like and mostly for filler this we need the watch time first up buckshot surprisingly dry considering I was directly in the splash zone next up slug [ __ ] went airborne next up gents and I don't expect this disciple because it's a little lower power but should still be fun yeah just like I said that cycle let's go through these in order so skip that one because I want to see that one that's gonna look cool this was where the buckshot so you can see here I think that was the entry hole and that is somehow looks kind of dirty so the one we shot with the slug landed all the hell all the hell what the [ __ ] so the one we shot with a slug landed all the way over here as you can see this is no longer a very good receptacle for holding soda or any other liquid as it is completely but [ __ ] now we have our orange Krush that's here yeah yeah so that's what I was kind of hoping for I was hoping oh there's two of them that's rad can we check this out there's two flechette so you could still see that are stuck in the bottle from the other side so they went in this side and it doesn't look like I don't know I don't think any a couple of them penetrated yeah a couple of them went straight through but there are two that are still stuck in which is really neat that's actually a cool test for me I was curious about this I was curious if they would stabilize mid-flight which it looks like they did that right there would try to think of what the medical term is [ __ ] you up aside from the potential endorsement of war crimes this video actually turned out pretty fun next time you guys see this thing hopefully when I've done what I want to to it we're gonna convert this thing into a machine gun she's gonna be rock and rolled I'm gonna cut this barrel down a little bit maybe put a j-mac 12-gauge brake on it a nice little hefty brake to reduce some of that reclose actually really not bad it's not as bad as I remember oh yeah we want to add a 12-gauge drum too I think that would be pretty nifty maybe one of those like little chainsaw attachments and just what are the Chechens I can't say that can hey so if you guys have any ideas for what you want to see us do with this saiga-12 let me know in the comments I still haven't made up my mind on everything yet but other than that it's a fun video thank you guys so much we haven't already subscribed go ahead please subscribe and hit the bell notification it does help us out a lot in the analytics channels like ours we have to fight tooth and nail to keep our analytics up and keep growing so it really does help I appreciate it guys feel free to join in the hashtag haic AG notification squad and I will see you sexy YouTube [ __ ] the next video here at the aka guy we believe in not littering but instead giving habitats to the local wildlife unfortunately around here the local wildlife is [ __ ] spiders what is up you sexy YouTube mother lovers ever since the double-stack makarov or the stack rock video you guys have been asking for more stuff out of my personal collection not asking further my stuff you want to see it not probably want it to but get good if you wanted to buy an aka you see like back that up a little bit do you ever feel like a plastic bag the bolt carrier group is kind of why you do that so I was always told that variety is the spice of life potentially why I have an issue with monogamy we do that again with a straight face if you forgot if you've got the kind of the [ __ ] wrong but if you guys have any ideas for you so if you guys have any idea for what you guys want to see us do with this 12 it just do that again I'm having a hard time with that one so you've

I like Brandon a lot, Seems like he would fit in pretty well and get along with Kyle. Def not a full show but I second this.
