So I was just browsing Armslist and saw a Norinco SKS receiver and bolt carrier for incredibly cheap.

Would it be possibly to slowly restore this into something? Are there enough replacement parts out there to build this out into something? Can they be reassembled like an AR or would I need a gunsmith after I find some parts?

Pic related - I guess I would ultimately envision this turning into some tastefully bubba'd thing

Check desert fox for parts

>Are there enough replacement parts out there to build this out into something?
no
its not impossible to get sks parts but it isnt cost effective. would be easier to buy another sks and cannibalize it for parts
>>
>>34517464
Yeah you should be able to get it pieced together but it might not be worth it.

Is this the case even if I intend to replace/modernize some parts? Could I at least feasibly get the internals working and find a nice aftermarket wood stock?
>>
>>34518034
you can build one if you really its just going to be much cheaper to buy a complete gun. your going to end up spending like 400 bucks on 75% of a complete gun then a used sks is going to pop up for like 300 bucks.

if you started with half a sks it might be worth it but just a receiver and boltcarrier not really worth the effort
>>
>>34518034
If you plan on making it into a tasteful bubba like in the OP sure go for it
>>
>>34518173
I should add you should definitely still buy it. I wish i could find a project sks in my area for cheap

oh god that poor sks
if you have the bolt bolt carrier and receiver/barrel everything else is snap on
convert it for ak mags and use a cheap takeoff laminated stock and youve got an awesome rebuild

OP here. Is there a kit for this?? Pic not related
>>
I remember a /k/ post mentioning to new gun owners looking to buy an SKS;

If you want to dress it up, just get an AK and be done with it.
>>
>>34520203
It's not my first gun. I really want it for the project, to see what I can whip together, as opposed to a purely functional tool

Source on magazine setup?

Canadian here and I'm assuming it's a Canadian product...
>>
>>34521071
someone got a list of parts that he put on this? I know its a Fal buttstock and shit but what's up front and did he convert it for AK mags?
>>
>>34523549
> did he convert it for AK mags?

it's probably an SKS-D to begin with
>>
>>34523590
shit, that makes the entire project alot more expensive and makes me feel worse for messing with it.
>>
>>34523623
Meh, it's not like you are butchering the base receiver and you save the stock, you can always "revert it". Well, if you do it properly.
But yeah cost goes up.

An idea.

AC-556 style folding stock set.
AK Magazines, or if you want to fo full retard and confuse the fuck out of everyone in the range, STANAG mags.
Side accessory rail.

Chamber it in, I don't know, .300 Blackout?
>>
>>34526330
