What's Included
- Izhmash Saiga 7.62x39 semi-automatic rifle
Made in Russia by Izhmash, this Saiga carries factory and proof markings including the Izhevsk/Izhmash symbols, the EAA CORP COCOA FL import mark, Cyrillic model text "САЙГА," and "SAIGA 7.62x39" on the receiver. It also bears a two-digit "04" date stamp and standard "S / F" selector legends.
Built on the AKM platform, it uses a stamped sheet-steel receiver with a smooth top cover, a long-stroke gas piston system, a rotating bolt, and a standard magazine release. A right-side manual safety lever and front/rear sling attachment points are present.
The 20.5 in barrel is plain crowned with no device or visible threads. Sights are AK-pattern: a protected front post and a tangent rear leaf graduated 1–3, providing a familiar sight picture consistent with the platform.
Furniture is black polymer, including a skeletonized buttstock with a ventilated rubber buttpad and a matching polymer fore-end/handguard. The rifle is finished in black throughout. A cleaning rod is not present.
