    Its a 20 round surefire stick & they cost $175 available from the R&R link I posted above.

     

    You can also get a 20 round drum mag from a company in the Czech Republic but at 300 euros a time there not cheap & can break when dropped on a hard surface during magazine changes.

    Wish Border was a bit closer but its a long way to travel to be beaten by you with that pump :good:

    In my opinion, they are pressed steel embarrassments with long barrels. A guy at our shoot arrived with one and fumbled his way through the stands, dropping magazines and shells and holding everyone up. It is a poser's gun and looks ridiculous at a clayshoot. It's more of a 'bang bang, look at me I'm Rambo' gun.

     

    Heh sorry it took me so long to get to this reply but as the owner of the above pressed steel embarrassment i feel i ought to defend myself and the saiga.First of all it IS a terrible clay buster its heavy unwieldy and the magazine does take some getting used to.

    However for the purpose I bought it (PSG competition) it is superb. It is reliable to the point of unbreakable, the recoil is next to nothing and lets not forget its cheap compared to the alternatives.

     

    As to holding people up, i demand a recount as Float's Remi has fallen to bits on a regular basis and caused way more disruption than i ever have.....not to mention his renowned headbanger ammo responsible for the death of at least one pair of glasses and probably the early retirement on medical grounds of many trap operators due to post traumatic stress disorder :hmm:

     

    No-one expects someone with a saiga to shoot well. But there is no better feeling than than having a Krieghoff owner come off a stand after hitting 1 out of 10 mini's look at you and your pressed steel gun then sneer and wish you good luck......only to see you smack 9 out 10 clean,drop the mag and blow the gently wafting smoke from the flash hider :rolleyes:

     

    I have a clay gun its a remi 870 ><

     

    Oh btw Float is a good friend and introduced me to the joys of shot and choke and the occasional cry of anguish from his home loads (remember the 54g you gave my wife to try) Ouch

     

    If you buy one for clays you are indeed a poser but why not use it as long as you ok it with your club beforehand?

     

    Oh and yeah Float did beat me that day if i recall but not by much :rolleyes:
