Has anyone used steel shot in a saiga 12 Ga? If so what would be the best way to modify the clip to hold 3 rounds only. Can you buy modified choke tubes for it ?

    I don't think the Saiga is intended for steel shot, you might check with EAA on that issue. If you can remove the floorplate on the mag you could insert a block that would fit inside the perimeter of the spring and secure it either by screw(s) through the baseplate or by high-strength epoxy. Cut the block/rod to a length the prevents the mag from accepting more than 2 rds.

    I checked with EAA and you can indeed shoot steel shot from a Saiga. You must however, purchase a choke rated for steel from Colonial arms Co. Thank you for the info kingjoey. I got the information off their site.
