Nogunz here, planning on buying an SKS this summer, what are some useful accessories for it? What ammo types should I avoid? What are some important things I should know before buying one?
Dovetail mounts for scopes, or a scout mount would be good choices, Tapco or archangel stocks are great. You can always get Tapco 20 round mags, or just get an AK mag adapter. People say bad things about the Tapco mags, but in all honestly they feed steel case really well and I've never had problems with them. After the mag, you could always file the lips on the bolt down so you can remover the magazine even with the bolt forward. A few things to out for corrosion in the barrel and previous modifications, and really just general misuse. Make sure to clean the bolt assembly out good to avoid a slamfire as well. You may have to do some manual fitting as not all sks's are built quite the same, so get a filing kit and que up podcasts.

Nah rifle needs sling. Get sling. Also heat treat your stock. If ya dont when you go to put 200 rounds through it at the range the cosmoline will seep out and burn your findels
The only accessory a SKS needs is ammo and maybe stripper clips. Please don't turn a perfect rifle into one from Bubbastan!
