$750. The one with the folding stock is $1000. Sell me one for less than $500 and I might be interested.

Keep in mind Krebs is a custom shop, not a Century or a Hesse. There will be cheaper ways to get a 12C, but Krebs doesn't have to give their work away. There are plenty of people willing to pay for it.

you can still find authentic (no-ban LEO only) ones for under $1000 so why get a hack job, even if its a good hack job for $1000?

Well share with us. I would be VERY interested in a genuine 12C for under 1k.

I got my pc saiga 12 for less than $300 and if someone wants to kick in 500 more just to get a p-grip and folding stock then more power to em if thats what they want but I'd rather have a couple leo mags for mine and pocket the rest.

I've seen them on auction sites, with a buyout price of like $800 ish. One of our members bought one from him and he's very pleased.

it has the correct folder and everything. But its too pricy for me still, im poor.

$1k is pretty steep........ $700 I could see these things moving pretty well.

I bought 2 converted Saiga-12s from Elite Firearms out of Hurst, TX EliteAK74@aol.com . I paid $499 each plus shipping and what I got was a new Saiga-12 w/the bbl cut to 18.5", gas ports opened slightly to compensate for the shorter bbl, pistol grip & polymer buttstock added & the entire shotgun refinished in DuraCoat.

how did you convert those USAS-12 mags and how much did they cost?

I never ended up converting them because they were my insurance policy if the AWB didn't sunset. I sold them for almost $200 a few weeks ago.

To get them to work you would have to shave down the tops of the mags about 1mm on each side (too wide for magwell), cut off the mag catch that is held on by rivets and fabricate your own mag catch. That's pretty much it, although they will only take 2.75" 12 gauge shells and not 3" shells.

And here is a picture of them in use on someone else's Saiga 12

I like how you make it sound like they are turning a pistol grip screw and slipping on a Romy folder. That folder they added is like $150 alone.

Wirblewind, Hesse aint all bad, they brought in the LEO Saiga 12s. Mine for $450.
