Built by Izhmash in Russia, this Saiga-20 uses a stamped AK-pattern receiver with the standard AK-type top cover and a right-side charging handle. The EAA Corp (Cocoa, FL) import mark reflects early U.S. distribution for these models, and the receiver wears a matte black finish consistent with the rest of the firearm.
The 19 inch smoothbore barrel ends in a plain crown with no muzzle device or choke tube visible, and threads are not visible. The sporter-style polymer forend includes molded checkering and an integral front sling loop, with a rear sling loop at the buttpad.
The action is semi-automatic, gas-operated with a rotating bolt, and it uses a detachable box-magazine feed system. While the platform is designed for magazines, a magazine is not included with this firearm.
Notable user-added components include a TAPCO USA 6-position collapsible buttstock with a ribbed rubber buttpad and a TAPCO USA-marked polymer pistol grip, installed via a TAPCO stock adapter and buffer tube. The listed length of pull is 11.0 inches as configured. An internal numbered part matches the last three digits of the receiver serial.
