Overview
Saiga-9 semi-automatic carbine is built on shortened AK-74M-style stamped steel receiver. It features simple blowback action and fires from closed bolt. It also features typical Kalashnikov trigger, hammer and manual safety arrangements, adapted to semi-automatic only functioning. Feed is from double stack, double feed box magazines, made from plastic. Magazines are compatible with PP-19 Vityaz submachine gun, but are internally restricted to 10-round capacity to conform to Russian laws.
