This was my first rifle purchase...it is a nice solid rifle as is. Have since had a conversion job done to convert it to a semi-auto AK configuration and it is even better.

Just took it to the range for the first time last weekend and I am very satisfied in my decision to buy it. If you are looking for a centerfire range gun on a budget this certainly fits the bill well. I have no intentions to convert it, I like it just the way it is. I may consider threading the barrel so I can add a muzzle break to tame the recoil a bit. The recoil is not painful at all but it does make reacquiring your target a little more difficult for quick follow up shots.

Very nice shooting rifle! Well made. Accurate. It'll shoot any ammo! Wish I would have bought 2.

First let me say if your looking to buy any type of gun, just buy it from Buds because you are not going to find a better price or better service anywhere because I tried. With that said on to the 7.62x39 Saiga rifle. This rifle is great it is all put together very well, really easy to take apart and clean and as far as accuracy I was hitting a five inch plate at 100 yards out of the box with no adjustments needed and my eyesight isn't that great. This gun is the real deal and currently banned from import so if you want one you better hurry up and get one from Buds before they run out because once they are gone that's it. Thanks to all the staff at Buds for fantastic price and service and keep up the good work from a loyal customer Todd D

Good purchase especially since the 7.62 x 39 ammo is cheaper than .223. Front sight base was WAY off, thinking of sending it back but didn't want the hassle. Mounted an inexpensive red dot that's right on and never misses. Removed old stock first thing. Probably 500 rounds Tula without a hitch. Bring along a bore snake cleaner to the range, blow out the action with compressed air and you're ready to roll again. I'm so glad I bought this gun.

The rifle fit and finish is superb and everything is tight. It looks like a work of art and shoots better in my hands than my prior ar's(at least at the 25m zero). I haven't gone farther yet. Shot 80rnds only of wolf and Tula without any problems whatsoever. I am very satisfied with my purchase, You would be too! I give this 5 stars only because I can't give it a 7. I guess I rate it a 7 out of 5......that sounds about right.

Beautiful rifle! Secured it for a great price, on a 6 month layaway, 1 month before the 2014 EO on Russian "entities"... couldn't be happier. Once again, thank you buds!

just got it, absolutely love it, the look, the feel, the balance, it eats anything it is fed, a very exceptional Russian Rifle, it is as accurate as the shooter, Buds did a great job in getting this to me, and I am thankful that it was on the 180 day layaway. I ordered it on the 4th of July to celebrate Independence Day and did so without my wife's approval. NOW THATS REAL INDEPENDENCE! Thank you Buds

Excellent Russian product. Metal work is excellent. Very easy to convert over to high cap mags and pistol grip configuration. Original hand gaurd is nicer IMO than a standard AK hand gaurd and is more comfortable. The stock has to go even if you are leaving it in low-cap mag configuration, it is just too long and uncomfortable to shoot with. Other than that, if you want a real mil-spec AK47 I would say that this is as close as you get once converted.

Couldn't be happier!! Bud's got it to me quick, went to the range the following weekend and shot 180 rounds flawlessly!! Finish and overall quality is excellent!! Changed out the furniture for Tapco's (Saiga specific) T6 Stock/Pistol Grip and Tri-Rail hand guard. Added two SGM Tactical 30 round mags and a Magpul vertical grip, and it completely transformed it in to a work of art. Plan on doing a full conversion to bring it back to it's true original AK platform, but I couldn't start drilling in to a brand new rifle just yet. But for those who will, it looks like a fun project!! I also like that I have a true piece of Russian hardware from the legendary Izhmash factory. If you get one of these, you won't have any regrets.

Sweet looking rifle out of the box. I'm working on the conversion next, you can't beat a new Russian AK. Shipped quickly to my ffl, flawless transfer, will definitely buy again.

Great rifle! You absolutely can't beat this rifle for the money. Took a couple of weeks to run some rounds before writing a review. Suprisingly accurate right out of the box. I got two SGM Tactical 30 round magazines and I'm ready to roll. Bud's shipped extremely fast (I used their layaway option). Look forward to doing business with Buds again. Shawn in Tennessee

Received my second Saiga rifle. Pleased with packaging. After cleaning, rifle is a straight shooter just like my IZ-114 .223. Pleased with price also.

Though not a true AK it is an excellent gun and a good price. You can self convert it to true AK format for about $150 although I have not done so. Have found the aftermarket sgm surefire magazines to work the best. Gun eats all the low priced Russian ammo without a glitch. Accurate and fun to shoot. Can't go wrong.

Fast shipping! Great Rifle!!!!

I took the rifle apart and cleaned it prior to use and I think I did something wrong b/c my first shots were misfires caused by the pin striking too lightly. We disassembled and then put it back together at the range and it has fired flawlessly since. Fed 100s of rounds of Tula through it without a hitch. I think this is a very functional weapon, if you want an inexpensive AK type gun this is it. It is smaller and 'cheaper' feeling than the more expensive versions, but like I said - reliable. Eventually I will switch out the plastic stock for a wooden one, but I am confident that if I had to rely on this weapon it would work consistently.

This is a very interesting piece. AK guts and a nylon sport stock with a short barrel and no pistol grip. I bought it partly because of the low prices on 7.62x39 ammo and I wanted to have something from Izmash for my collection. Appears indestructible like most Russian arms. No failures after 200 rounds. Definitely a sweet shooter and damned accurate right out of the box at 50 yards. Price also unbeatable, Buy safe guarantee paid off and I got this Ruskie girlfriend in my safe for 485.00.. The cheap ammo lets me stay at the range longer, which is also a big plus. Grab one of these while you can. Great deal from Bud's as always!

Love my Saiga!! Took awhile for Bud's to ship, but was well worth it in price and time! Thanks Bud's!!

Awesome rifle! I'l probably do the conversion to get the rifle back its original AK configuration in the near future. Bud's needs to have some more of the 10 round magazines available for those customers who aren't planning on doing the conversion.

Absolutely awesome rifle!!!! Buds Gun Shop processed my order very quickly, and I had my saiga the same week I ordered it. The link to the UPS tracking was a cool feature for impatient people like me too. This rifle is ready to go right out of the box, and surprisingly accurate, and you know its going to be reliable for years because its from the Izhmash factory, and is pretty much an AK in a hunting rifle suit (and a slightly finagled with fire control group and magazine well). Its a great gun at an even better price, from prompt and helpful people!!!!!!!!!

Buds has always been very smooth and reliable for me, I have never had anything but "Great" service from Buds. This Hunter Carbine is Awesome ,It is different than Buds picture. The 20" barrel model is Shown in Buds Picture. This Hunting Carbine is a lot smaller than what is shown in the Picture & Specs, It is only 37 1/2 " Not 43 1/2" as listed. Only 4" of the Barrel is seen past the front of the fore-end . The Hunting Butt-stock and fore-arm is Black all weather polymer / plastic, Weight is just under 8 Lbs total. It works well for a low-maintenance all weather 30 Caliber Carbine. It is very much like a all weather Ruger Mini-30. The Saiga IZ-132 is Imported by Russian Weapons Company, in PA. Package was double boxed and Packed & Shipped correctly, The Hunting Carbine and all the accessories are packed in thick Zirast Inhibited Polyethylene bags to protect from any Corrosion. Just the Carbine in one bag and the 10 Round Magazine,Gun cleaning kit and Oil bottle in another. A Gun Cleaning rod was wrapped in a separate oiled paper. In several clear plastic bags was a Service Manual and a Hand Signed and Stamped ( In Russian ) Acceptance / Inspection Certificate dated 04/22/2013 . It is Made in Russia By Izhmash , The Factory where AKs are made. The Saiga Carbine also has a factory left mounted Side Unified Rail for a optical sight. I have a UAG - Quick Detachable side mount Double Weaver with A Dark Opps 3X9 42MM Scope. Open sights are quite accurate at a realistic distance , However with this Scope it is scary Accurate. The Saiga will out shoot my Ruger Mini-14 and Mini-30 With open sights and with a Scope.
