Original Russian Izhmash Saiga 12 gage Tactical Sh for sale in Austin Texas

$700.00

Looking for a legendary, banned-from-import, Russian-made Saiga-12?

This is it.

Built at the famed Izhmash factory (now Kalashnikov Concern), this semi-auto 12-gauge shotgun is based on the proven AK-47 design and is known for its reliability, ruggedness, and performance. This model was imported before the 2014 sanctions, making it a true collectible and one of the last of its kind legally available in the U.S.

Factory original, no mods**, and in excellent condition. This is the real Izhmash import, purchased just before the ban, and becoming harder to find by the day.

Built in Russia by Izhmash, the Saiga-12 delivers the same rugged reliability and ease of use you'd expect from an AK — but in a semi-auto shotgun form. Birdshot, buckshot, slugs — the Saiga-12 eats it all both light and heavy loads.

Because it’s tied to both the Kalashnikov legacy and import bans, the Saiga-12 is now a collector’s piece as well as a highly functional firearm.

💥 Why This Saiga?

- Imported pre-2014 ban – no longer legally importable
- Russian Izhmash production – not a U.S. clone or parts gun
- Unconverted original configuration – increasingly rare as most were heavily modified
- Low round count – babied, not abused
- Perfect foundation for a conversion or keep it stock as a collector’s piece
- Legendary AK-based reliability in 12-gauge form

This Saiga has been well cared for and lightly used, but it simply hasn’t seen the attention it deserves. I’m clearing out space in my overflowing safe and would love to see this go to someone who will use and appreciate it. It’s been a loved piece in my collection, just not getting the time and attention it deserves.

Don’t miss your shot (ever, when it counts) to snag an iconic, increasingly rare Russian boomstick — before it’s gone faster than a brass case on range day.

Priced like this, here today - gone tomorrow.
