I bought my first gun yesterday and put it on layaway. Russian SKS, great bore, and matchung numbers for $550. Gonna pay it off on Friday and ready to go when I get the yugo stripper clips in the mail.
I'm so excited to get this thing out on the range and go full innawoods

Looks pretty nice. My first gun was a Yugo. They're nice and idiot proof fortunately.
that is a NICE SKS, dude.
Nice SKS man, I want one like that.
I have a nice Norinco right now but a Russian rifle would fit my collection a lot better. I'm in the market for one and am just going to give my Norinco to my girlfriend.
I've heard a lot about norincos but I've never been willing to buy one
The waiting definatly paid off
Me and my dad own two yugos but unfortunately they don't work, we've been looking for a fix for forever but haven't had the time to really get into it. Hopefully yours fairs better.
how the fuck do you break an SKS?
Yuu-go.
I find that the laminate stocks always look better after a good hard sanding to even out the wood and refinish with a deep coating of fresh shellac. I've had Russian laminates where the sides looked like they went through a band saw and then straight to shellac.
Please to be of describing problem Comerade. (Being Yugo's, the gas port is probably in grenade mode.)
alright which one of you guys are responsible for this?
Nice blury piece of shit picture.
It's me lol
What? It's accurate.
Think he means the pic being associated with wiki.
I know. It's still in the top search results for me though, but it's the most accurate one.
>not appreciating hipster artistic techniques
now you just need to make it nicer.
agreed
IVAN NO
I'm not putting my SKS through that no thank

Why even live lads
Clean the bolt face better.
Move to Switzerland or Serbia.
This made my fucking day
Glad this shit weather is coming to an end
just gonna spam some paratroopers in here
my Norinco has worked flawlessly. it shooting about 2-3 moa
I recently put some tech sights on my chinese, can recommend.
Just hopped on the tech sights bandwagon myself, should've done it years ago
Mine
wheres the best place to look to buy an sks? my buddy wants one and I want to help him look for one and I don't want him to get raped.
I'm in Florida.
>serbia
Where did you get that mag from? been wanting to get 2-3 for my mine.
Also is pic related normal on an SKS? all the pics ive seen of sks barrels seem to be smooth.
That's an AK mag, user has an SKS-D which was developed to take AK mags.
Don't know where his mag came from, but my Cabela's has 20 and 30 round promags for the SKS. I've found the 20s are more reliable feeding. When I fill the 30s up they have feeding issues.
Pic related it is my Norinco Paratrooper with 2 20s and a 30. Gun + 2 mags + 120 rounds cost me $325 3 years ago
You cant get guns here lmao,the meme about my country isnt real
I remember this one but I'll ask again
Where bayonet comrade
It's just a surplus AK mag.
If you have a standard SKS just use the fixed one. Duck bills suck.
Yes it's normal on some chinese.
MODS!
>tfw my state says knives over 4 inches are illegal.
>tfw i want one but wont be able to to have bayonet on it.
Even a spike?
>tfw I can’t put a scope on mine since I lost the hardware used to keep it on
that wood is s e x y
Anyone know where to buy good, durable slings for chink sks's? I got a cheapy ncstar one that broke the first day on the range.
Blued my bolt carrier and it's not really doing good. Should I duracoat it?
Bubba no
fucking state would probably count it as a knife
I kindof want to do the opposite. Do yall think a chromed BC would look good?
>tfw I don't even have a bayonet lug on mine
The thing is shaved clean
If the AK was never invented and Russians kept using SKS's until this day, what would modern military SKS's look like
I almost bought that off armslist fuck you bro
Probably something like a slavified Mk 14.
They'd probably have made a D model with proprietary mags and that actually worked consistantly.
Everyone says this but I've yet to have an issue with any of my promag duckbills in my norinco. I've got 40s, 30s and 20s no issues, though the tapco 20 i tried wouldn't feed
Damn OP
I approve of this.
Picked up a Norinco SKS over spring break. I'm upset there is a slight bit of surface rust in a couple of spots, but I did an entire field strip of her today. Everything is in working order, but there was that classic brownish yellow grease all over the trigger mechanism and sides of the magwell. However I'm worried about the clp ruining the finish on the wood, though it'll probably be fine.
In a box somewhere, it's my hiking rifle, gotta keep it light.
If it soothes your OCD, I also have a 54 Tula in original condition.
Yes
Lmao I live in the city it came from sorry gotta be faster than my car
Bought a yugo SKS as my very first rifle at 18 years old (2008) and it has rusting on the muzzle. $190 years old, no regrets. The rusting is mostly on the break, is this rifle still useful?
REEEEEEEEEEEEE
move here and be a mutt like the rest of us
noice
not sure how I feel about this
yeah thats pretty common on the press and pinned barrel models. Its because they just finish turn the barrels instead of turn and grind them
I love the sks, and as a rifle it is pretty much ban proof, but ultimately at $550 it's not worth it. Especially considering that I can get an ak for $200 more and at that range is just a few more paychecks. So I question not the rifle but the $500 plus price tag.
Inb4 ifunny.co watermark. Fuck off its a Jow Forums picture I'm bringing home
>$200
>a few more paychecks
wow look at this turbopoorfag
Alright, so I want to put a Bulgarian underfolder onto a spare stock I have, any way you guys know of doing it sturdily?
Fuckin fud
Fuck you, I can do what I want to my own damn stock. It's not like It will do anything to the gun.
This is my SKS currently.
I'm thinking about replacing the stock with the sabertooth from matador arms and putting a PSO scope on it as well.
Thoughts?
Hey anons, I just bought an SKS and through some negotiating I got a wood stock with it for free. I can't get it to fit on my gun, though, am I retarded or did that fudd give me a stock that doesn't work with my norinco?
Main problem is that it won't fit right here.
Maybe you should just try smacking it around and wiggling it. If that doesn't work it might be incompatible. Also, where is the cross bolt?
Confirmed on having tried smacking it around and wiggling it. Cross bolt is in the mail, didn't come with one.
Fugg
Rip
Fixed* dunno why it was upside down
I feel like I had this problem on my all matching russian, you have to start the metal bits furthur back and then slide them foreward, they sit under that part that is blocking it.
My thought is that you should sell me the wood furniture when you get that sabertooth because that looks like a norinco and i want wood :) mine came with this furniture and i dont like it. Pistol grip is uncomfortable for my hands and the stock is wobbly.
Fucking rip
That won't work because of this thing. As you can see I've chipped it after autistically trying to jam it on. It looks like if I shave the recessed part off, though, it may fit on. Should I just say fuck it and do that?
Are you autistic? You tilt the gun forward and slide that little tab over the front end then lower it.
Also I noticed a hole for a screw, this may be a sign that it's not compatible.
Nope, just new to the gun. I'm aware that's how you put it on, and it's not working.
That's for the trigger mechanism release spring. When the press the button in behind the trigger it pishes the trigger assembly up so you lift it out.
Post pictures of the rifle markings on the side of the receiver.
Do this and take a picture of where the barrel meets the receiver. Are there "flats" on the top and bottom, any alignment lines? If so, you have a threaded barrel and you must buy a stock made for a threaded barrel. If not, it's pinned, and will have to buy a stock for a pinned barrel. They are not compatible.
If you mean under the stock next to the serial number on the barrel then, yes, it has "flats".
Fuck, under the rear sight is what i meant. I need to go to sleep lol.
SKS are great if you live in a commie state, i.e. NY where even an SKS with a big ol' pig-sticker and muzzle brake and scary black furniture is legal because for it to be an 'assault weapon' it has to have a removable magazine and the SKS's counts as internal.
Take out your cleaning rod you goddamn fruit, then try it again, tilt the receiver end up, slip it over, then drop it down.
BUBBA NO
