This is what Wikipedia says about the Saiga 12
The Saiga-12 is a Kalashnikov-pattern 12 gauge combat shotgun available in a wide range of configurations. Like the Kalashnikov rifle variants, it is a rotating bolt, gas-operated gun that feeds from a box magazine. All Saiga-12 configurations are recognizable as Kalashnikov-pattern guns by the large lever-safety on the right side of the receiver, the optic mounting rail on the left side of the receiver and the large top-mounted dust cover held in place by the rear of the recoil spring assembly.
The looser clearances offered in an AK style design result in high reliability?an enormous boon on a semi-automatic shotgun, as this class of weapon had previously tended towards unreliability. The gun is also readily affordable and easy to maintain, made almost entirely from sheet-metal stampings.
The Saiga-12 is manufactured by the arms division of Izhmash, in Russia. It was previously imported into the US by European American Armories, although their agreement expired in 2005 and Izhmash is now exporting through the Russian-American Armory Company.
Will "assault" style weapons soon be banned for sale by the current U.S. administration.
There are currently hundreds of weapons sold every day that would have been banned just a few years ago under the Clinton era prohibitions that were allowed to expire. Many are purchasing weapons as fast as they can for fear they will soon be unavailable for sale in the U.S.
Should the Saiga 12 continue to be available for sale in the U.S.?
Why or why not?

Yes. Banning them only works against law-abiding citizens. A ban will stop people like me (who do not commit crimes) from getting them, but will not stop criminals. If gun related crimes, such as murder, are so bad, why not make laws against those crimes, instead of against the firearms? (hint of sarcasm)
