close, it's 8 pounds 3 ounces without optic, and 9 pounds 9 ounces with the optic. I could have put a much lighter red dot on it, but I like the russian optics even though they are a bit heavy.

Im pretty sure the production year is 1964, but i was wondering if i could find detailed records of its history. Like Capture records?

>>34475836
its definitely 1963. bought it from a gun shop just earlier this year. previous owner already decosmolined all of it except some of the trigger. all numbers match. the only part that seems to be replaced is the top handguard.

Yeah, I was wondering if you guys had a general sense of a decent price to pay for a serviceable sks, and what to models are generally serviceable. Do you guys have like a "my first sks buyer's guide" or some pointers? I really don't know where to begin.

Like Mosins for example- Finnish ones are nice, but expensive. A 1943 Russian one could be ok if you get matching serial numbers/barrel isn't shot out, but don't pay $300 for one of those.

>>34482696
I bought my norinco earlier this year for $375 USD. Not a bad price considering the condition. But yeah they usually go for between 400 to 500 these days. Chinese ones priced closer to 400. Prices have gone up in the past few years. Still a much better value than the Mosin IMO,

>>34478297
>>34479874
but y tho

Got an SKS where it didn't come with the original mag and instead came with a banana mag. Problem is, if you fully load the mag, it'll disengage from the gun, and the only way to keep this mag in place is to hold it by the mag and push up while firing, which causes your aim to go fucking nuts.

So here's a question. Is there a respectable stock replacement that I can purchase that will fit a different mag or the same mag I already have, or is there something I can do to help the magazine stay in place.

I don't have the original mag and I would like to keep it mag fed mainly for cleaning purposes since I've heard horror stories about this things slam firing while dirty.

>>34483213
>but y tho
Because in Canada, semitautomatic rifles such as an sks, are limited to a 5 round magazine capacity. There are companies that make 10 round 7.62x39 pistol magazines.

Do not sand it down, instead use acetone or paint remover and a lightly-abrasive plastic-based sponge or fine steel wool to take off the finish. A little bit more work, but it will be significantly nicer.

Restored my SKS on /k/'s advice from completely Bubba'd condition to this with a new stock, bayonet, and handguard. I'm undecided on the magazines. It's faster and more convenient to use the duckbills, but last time I was at the range I had about three or four misfires out of 150 shots fired.

thats like asking if its a good idea to drill and tap an all matching Gew 98 so you can mount an ACOG

How do you go about adding a sling to your SKS if it didn't come with the thingy to attach a sling on the stock? Can you buy the thingy? What would it be called besides "the thingy"?

>>34483963
The benefit is really not worth the modification to the rifle.
Not to mention if you're over 5'10 you're probably gonna have bad eye relief with an optic that far back.
Best bet is to mount a scout styled optic on a drop in mount where the rear sight is.

I bought some cheap stripper clips online, and the pegs that normally keep them from sliding into the mag well aren't wide enough. I had to grind one down to get it out a bit ago.

Also: Where to find decent clips?

if the clip didnt come with ammo on it is shit

Get Czech BXN clips. I hear they are a must, they usually come in M67 Ammo Crates already loaded with the rounds.

But I have had good experiences with Circle 31 Chinese clips. Though I might have just had gotten lucky.

Does anyone bother with 922r parts compliance when modding or using the extended mags?

Chrome lined barrels are a meme. Fudd lore claims non chrome lined barrels are more accurate because of deeper rifling. In reality it wont make a difference either way.

>>34485905
NORINCO is also stamped on refurb'd type 56s for export. There's a lot of them floating around the US but I imagine they might be a bit harder to filter out in canada what with all the new norincos.

>>34494476
My personal rule is to clean it within 24 hrs after shooting, never let me down.
A friend of mine bought an sks when they were dirt cheap to run an experiment: shoot a spam can, then throw the sks into the closet for a year without cleaning it, only to inspect it a year later and see if it still fired. Needless to say it still worked flawlessly.

Took my matching numbers Yugo out and put a couple hundred rounds through it today. It's scarily hard to miss with it.

Do any of you guys know where to snag an original Yugo bayonet and cleaning rod for a decent price? I bought mine bubba'd and would like to restore it, considering it is all numbers matching (stock, bolt and carrier, trigger group, dust cover, receiver, and mag)

>>34495921
What bag is that? What do you use it for?

>>34496094
It's an M56 butt pack. I use it for food, ammo I cant fit in the pouches, and TP. (I walk about an hour and a half out into the woods to get to my shooting spot, and stick around shooting for about 3 hours depending on what I bring so TP is an essential; never know when you might need to shit.)

>>34496094
>>34495921
Side note, the early Vietnam M16 mag pouches work great for SKS stripper clips. The early mag pouches were a little shorter than late war and post war ones.

>>34496186
I might get one. Or a surplus fanny pack for light innawoods use

Anyone going to mention the length of the butt? made for slavic midgets and little orientals.

>>34495913
>>34496585
Old ALICE webbing is my go-to for innawoods shit. Get an ALICE pistol belt, and you can turn it into a building point for just about any type of usage you need it for.

got an SKS yesterday at a gun show in St Louis. Got it out on the range today but it has trouble taking stripper clips. Is this a problem with the gun itself or the stripper clips themselves?

>>34489265
The advantages of sharpening it are it's a better stabbing weapon once you do. you can push it in, then cut upward, downward, sideways... with the BLADE OF YOUR BAYONET.

Now YOU TELL ME ONE SINGLE REASON NOT TO, you little faggot. Don't "ask a better question" answer the one you were asked

>>34497131
Probably bad clips. Unless there's a problem with the mag or you're doing it wrong/don't have the experience yet.

Alice clips will fit onto anything. You don't need a special belt for it. My gear that uses alice clips go onto all my belts, molle, etc.

I need to launch rubber grenades and remove kebab
Also we put import bans on Russia and Ukraine here too so the good prices are ending.

>>34497131
Get a tiny screw driver and bend the tabs on the stripper clips( the knes that stick out and put pressure on the bullets do they dont slide out) bend them untill the bullets dont have to much tension, thats will make them slide alot easier

>>34497395
Not him but you have absolutely no idea on how a bayonet is used, you do not cut with one at all you you stab, twist, and remove, sharpening one just makes it more of a hazard for training and does not make it any more deadly in use even without sharpening it is still pointy enough to get into someones chest.

It absolutely will not hold an edge.
You could spend an hour sharpening it, only to have it be as dull as before the first time you poke something with it.
Learn the difference between a field knife and bayonet, and then go fuck yourself.
>I bet you think "batoning" is an appropriate use for a knife too.

Is $350 too much for a norinco in good condition unmolested?

>>34497395
You're a fucking idiot. Stab a deer body in the chest with a bayonet the next time you get a buck, (though you probably don't hunt), and see how far you get trying to slice while you're inside it. Go ahead.

My uncles friends has 2 sks' and he's willing to sell me both plus 8 stripper clips for $300, sorry for the shitty picture. One of them is a yugo I think and it doesn't have the bayonet or anything on the muzzle. The other one has the bayonet as well as a muzzle device, he says that it's for a grenade launcher but I'm not too sure if that's true. Anyways, they're both in good condition and ate up everything we put into them. Should I do it?

>>34500405
Of course, then keep what you like, sell the other for more money, and you'll have nothing in the SKS you hang on to. If you don't care for them, sell both at a profit. Then put your 300 back in your account and use the rest for whatever.

Guns to men are like shoes to women. Take advantage. I suggest at least keeping one as trade bait. I've gotten some good motorcycle deals by having weapons to swap.

Never marry what you can pimp.

>>34500191

What's a good price for a SKS-D that comes with 4x 5 rounders 3x 30 rounders, original sling, 720 rounds of ammo. He us hd it for 20 years unfired, and it looks brand new so did the bore. I'm Canadian also so it's gonna cost more

>>34500926
not $1000
try looking on the EE for one or going to gun shows
I've seen them for $600

>>34500975
I'm in southern Alberta, I have never seen one down here before. Even with all that shit, still not worth it?

>>34500975
I make really good money, so it's not an issue I'm just curious

>>34501041
>>34501076
720 rounds of corrosive is worth about ~$140
30 round AK magazines can be had for about $30 and those little ones are uncommon so I'm not sure about the price, but let's say they're worth half.
So you have $300 in accessories and then a $600 rifle. Try to bring him down in price at least if you really want to buy it. I live in BC and not a big gun area but I've still seen SKS-D's and the ones for a good price on the EE were also from Calgary and Edmonton (but sold already).
At $1000 you can find a used CZ858 which is a much better option. It's a pain in the ass to reload magazines on a gun without a pistol grip to get a good hold of it while using the other hand.

>>34500436
That sounds like a good idea. I could sell the other one for probably $400 and throw in 2 stripper clips. And basically get away with a free gun. Also the gun in the pic is the first rifle I ever fired which was around 3 years ago. So i feel like I could keep that for some sentimental value

>>34501149
Incalgary there is a csa vz 58 with a tone of shit and Mano for 1500. I can't find cz858 or vz58s anywhwere in south Alberta or bc

Yeah it's chrome lined. It's just a Russian SKS modified to used AK mags. And no, the sling is just different for some reason. There's one clip on each side for some reason. Look at the photo again.

I love the beat to shit stock on my type 56. Feels authentic. If I was to change it I've seen these sabertooth aluminum stocks that accept AR parts but its like $200-300 and for an SKS thats just...

I seen a Russian sks with a star stamped on the receiver right by the serial numbers what does that mean?

>>34474490
>>34494736
non-chrome line bores are more accurate because the surface of the bore is more even and smooth, chrome plating adds dimensional differences and is thicker and thinner in some parts. the rifling isnt "deeper" , the bore just has little globs of chrome here and there. it does affect accuracy but for a 7.62x39, considering the range of the cartridge, it doesnt really matter in my opinion

Trying to find an SKS in Upstate Cuomo-Land. Any advice on what sort of dealers I should look for?
