Gun Talk Saiga 223 Conversion

Overview Comments (2)

Details

I'm planning on going through the process of converting a 223 saiga into a 102 and wanted to get a list of all the parts I'll need, from my understanding it seems like I'll need the following:

Front End:
- AK100 combo block
- AK100/74 handguard retainer
- AK100/74 gas tube
- anything else?

Reciever:
- 223 bullet guide
- AK100/74 trigger guard (with saftey lever stopper or something to that effect?)
- fAK100 fcg (is this necessary?)
- 500m or 1000m sight leaf (which is more "clone correct"?)

Rear:
- 5.5m folding trunnion
- proper stock

Am I missing anything here?

Thanks for your time

Ensure that the 223 you are getting has a dimpled receiver and “mil” profile barrel. About half the guns have a different pattern barrel which is more work to properly make into a 100 series pattern. They’re amazing when they are converted though!

Mine has dimples, how do I know if it has the proper barrel profile?

The barrel will have side grooves where the hg retainer should be

500m would be accurate. Don't forget the reinforcement plate. If you want to run AK mags you'll need a 5.45 bullet guide. The .223 ones for sale are for galil mags. Some modification has to be done to the front trunnion to get mags to seat. Not a gunsmith but that's what I have been told.

reinforcement plate? What is that and where does it go into the rifle?

And would a 545 bullet guide cause feed issues with 556 rounds?

reinforcement plate goes sits above the pistol grip. Its a thin piece of metal. 5.45 bullet guide is what's used for 223 builds that want to use AK mags. If you want to use galil mags get the .223 bullet guide. When my 102 is built it'll have a 5.45 guide in it
