Sino-Soviet SKS (New Blog)

[Nefarious]

I started a blog recently, here is an article on one of my SKS Rifles. Turns out that one of them is one of the earliest production models of the Chinese SKS. Anybody else into SKS/AK rifles?

I have a russian made SKS, has 1957 stamped on the side... heavy gun but a really good shooter.  They make stripper clips for the 10 round mag so you can speed load them. There's a video on the net where a guy is shooting one and popping in stripper clips at an amazing pace.*
I've been meaning to order some for mine.

* I'm not sure how his accuracy was.

I plan on buying a Russian soon, They are really sought after, and all-matching rifles are fetching 300+

Might save up and get a D and M model Chinese instead though.

Mine seems to be all matching.. I think I only paid $125.00 though....... but that was 15 years ago.

My dad has 2 or 3 now plus a couple of WW2 Mosin-Nagants as well.

D and M Chinese SKS models takes detachable AK47 30 round mags. And run about the same price.

I had a Yugo M59/66 that I sold.  Current one is a '53 Tula with full on bubba T6 stock, red dot scout scope, etc.  Not as fun as the M1 Carbine but close.

Its cheaper, thats for sure. That must be why I hear people calling them the poor mans M1.

I've got a Norinco from the 70's.  Its a good weapon, but the trigger group leaves something to be desired.

We siezed a Russian one with 1954 stamped on it last week.  I was eyeing the trigget group.

Only get a D if you want it for collection value.  If you want something with AK mags get a AK.

It's pretty beat up... the stock that is.

When you get back to the states, send your trigger group here. http://www.kivaari.com/

Too late... already got an AK, I'm more in it for collecting.

Copy Steve I was just posting that GB link to show you how much it could be worth.
