Does any gun have a more cucked history
It's not that special a gun. You only love it because it's available to you cheap as fuck.

Served commie guerrillas well in Vietnam, Rhodesia, and other Cold War proxy conflicts. Still the official ceremonial rifle for Russia and China. Huge resurgence in popularity here in the U.S. over the last few years. Seems like the SKS did alright for itself.

While true, i think OPs point is it was massively overshadowed by the AK47. And he wanted to talk about cucks.

>more capacity and far less recoil than imperialist american garand
>based on a kickass anti-tank monster of a rifle
>solid tried and true all forged and milled construction
Then after about ten minutes of fame the chad ak47 comes in and ruins everything
Somebody make a virgin chad meme

The fuck is this even supposed to mean?
People in this thread have a misconception that the SKS was replaced by the AK. It was not as the early AKs had a lot of production problems. The AK47 never replaced the SKS, in fact the AK47 was in production BEFORE the SKS was.
The SKS was in frontline Soviet service until the 1960s after the AKM was introduced.

The SKS was in the low initial production phase in 1945.
The earliest variant saw combat in WW2, also the SKS stayed in service until sometime after the adoption of the AK-74, as a second line rifle in the hands of rear line forces

I saw this thread before laying in bed and thought about putting that. It's now 3:30am and I have to get up for work in 2 hours. Ive been awake in bed for 5 hours straight and now I just figured out why.
Fuck you Luger, you mad bastard

Those were prototypes, not production.

American education at its finest.

There were a couple dozen or so that got sent into Germany at the very last minute, saw incredibly limited combat but they were there and they did shoot at Jerry.
>>35077095
Again, they were all prototypes and not even of the usual prototype/field trial guns that Soviets would make in the tens of thousands of à la the 1943 M44s. Not even in the same caliber either.
All assault rifles ever
