I had one in .410, and it was fun but temperamental. The box magazine only liked 3" shells as the bolt tended to shove them all forward at once if I used anything shorter than 3". It certainly does"nt handle well if you actually want to hit anything with it, I would rate a regular pump or semi as more useful.
I had the pistol grip stock, but I"ve seen them advertised in the US with sporter type stocks(to get around import regs?) which might be better. Like all Saiga products, they"re not well finished, with cheap plastic furniture, but if you want something different just for fun, then they"re ok if your not expecting too much.
good shooting
