Apparently, the 5rd mags are as big as it gets. Are there any higher capacity ones?

there are 8 rounders, and no it's not legal anywhere until the AW ban dies.
The shotgun has too many "evil" features with the 8 rounders
-semi auto
-detachable mag
-mag capacity exceeding 5 rds
because of the detachable mag, the saiga can't have a pistol grip either.
This is why i decided just to get a regular pump-action shotgun and wait until the AWB dies (with any luck) before getting a saiga.

I believe the rounders don't run afoul of the AW ban... due to a fluke in the ban, 5+ mags are only an evil feature if they are fixed:
Shotgun
A shotgun is said to be an AW if it is semiautomatic and that has at least 2 of the following:
*a folding or telescoping stock;
*a pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;
*a fixed magazine capacity in excess of 5 rounds; and
*an ability to accept a detachable magazine.
I suspect they may be hard to get because adding one makes the gun "nonsporting" and thus inimportable under the GCA 1968?

Yeah the 5+ round limit is only for guns with internal magazines.
Loandr, your link didn't seem to work for me as typed, I think there is a comma stuck at the end of the URL that needs to be removed.
