SKS thread

I have a Yugo SKS that won't cycle, the gas valve is open (to the side), and it still is bolt action. Has anyone had this problem before? Is it possible that there's a leak somewhere?

Buy a new gas tube. Could just be worn the absolute fuck out

Clean that part comrade

I can do that

Can you do a full disassembly and in the process better reach the area you want?

Shit if you bought your Yugo sks from Cabela's from 2014 - 2016 there's a hole under the handguard in the barrel don't shoot the gun

The gas block itself might be obstructed. That's going to be a bitch to clean. If it's not, then it sounds like it's fucking missing piston parts....

FUCKING WHAT

Removed a small section of the stock that allows the scope to sit on the mount with proper eye relief
Positioned the mount flat in relation to the top of the reciever
Drilled reciever and riveted mount on

SKS is garbage, toss it and get a real rifle like an AR

that's about as useful as telling someone to drink piss from a dehydrated person to get hydrated

When you fire it does is short stroke or does it straight up not even start to cycle?
FUCKING WHAT.
Also, this is probably bullshit unless it’s a massive fucking hole.
Even if it’s bleeding gas at a massive rate or it isn’t too ridiculously early in the barrel (like, right next to the fucking chamber or something) it should stil at least try to cycle...

Seems to not even cycle

douche bag has the gas value on grande cycle..

OP, I think your piston is missing or your gas block is clogged shut. I don't know what the fuck else could be the problem

>Piston missing
See >Gas block clogged up
Guess I should soak it in Hoppes or something?

Just remove the little plug. There should be a lever to the right of your rear sight. Pulling it up enough let's you remove the gas tube, pulling it more in the same direction will open up the little block that pushes your bolt back when you fire. It's got a spring in it, be careful and don't fucking lose it.

Do you know anything about these?

>Take it part like that
Ok, ok, fuck! Now put it back together.

So you did a normal field strip? Wow, such awesome.

He is now, once again, a no guns faggot. It made me important for a change.

Didn't the Yugo ones have the grenade launcher option where it had a cutoff for single shot?

There's a second piston inside the rear sight block.
