Just goes to show that the market will bear what the market will bear. For example..... I wouldn't pay more than $200 for a Glock, but most folks would be willing to pay market price. ;)

That being said, I still got a stellar deal. :D.





I'm getting really itchy to try this thing....... Might head to the range tonight. :mrgreen:

Technically that isn't a SKS, but a commercial version of a Chinese Type 84

Pretty cool! Now get a drum mag for it

Huh. It says "Norinco SKS M" right on the receiver, which is where I got it from. thanks for the heads up.

I was under the impression that the drums wouldn't fit without some stock modification. Had one years ago. Didn't have a drum to try at the time.
Yeah, but I shoot with THIS hand.

Nice pick up Strad.

Maybe I'll have to take your offer on OGC and I'll bring my never fired (beside at the factory) Yugo M70AB2 for us to break in.

Nice pickup, that is a surprisingly nice stock on an SKS & interesting to see one that was actually factory built for the AK mags vs the typical 10 round fixed mag "project" guns that have been hacked up and dropped into circuilation at various gun shows. Congrats on the find!

Sweet. What Im looking to do is put a plastic tactical stock on it...... Tactical pistol grip of course, tactical light, tactical laser, tactical bayonet with reinforced tactical bayonet mount, tactical drum or moustache clip, tactical night sights, tactical charging handle, tactical 7 point sling, a tactical storage compartment for.my grill and other assorted bling and a tactical juice box holder

Do they make tactical couplers for drum mags?

I want a couple of those too.
