Best Saiga 12 Magazines 2023

Saiga 12 is a Russian gas-operated shotgun, which is not easy to buy on the US market. These semi-automatic shotguns and parts for them are increasingly rare, because of the import ban from Russia in 2014.

Accurate firing is the main purpose for any shooter. A good shooting performance completely depends on a reliable magazine. If you notice bent feed lips, cracked spines, or wonky followers, retire old magazines to prevent malfunctions.

Why Do We Need Saiga 12 Magazine?

The magazine is a shooting gear for the rounds loading (unloading), consisting of its housing, a follower, a floor plate, and a spring. Everyone wants the best magazines to ensure accuracy hitting the target. Good magazines should function after being in dirt and sand, being dropped many times during reloads, firing thousands of rounds.

Conclusion

There is not a big choice of Saiga 12 mags in the US market because of their import ban. While purchasing the magazine, check the follower quality, as it ensures flawless feeding performance. The best spring material should be stainless steel to resist corrosion, dirt, and debris. Polymer or metal bodies are the most durable materials. The sturdy magazine construction delivers its flawless work without dent. If you live in the states, where the magazine capacity is limited, you can choose models chambered for 5 or 10 rounds cartridges.
