As the title states I picked up my first sks. It's a arsenal 306 TYPE 56. I think I got a pretty good deal on it. All numbers match. Paid 400 bucks for it, it came with 4 boxes of ammo and a Tapco intrafuse stock. Only thing not original on it is the hand guard, I plan on replacing it with...
Hello there, Witt Machine manufactures clamp on muzzle brakes for your SKS. I don't know about you, but when I shoot my SKS rapid fire the muzzle climbs up and its hard to keep my sights on target. I know muzzle brakes are mainly used for recoil reduction, but this SKS brake clamps on and does...
How important is it to have the handguard ferrule pinned to the handguard/gas tube? The handguard ferrule itself is in place as is the handguard and the gas tube is locked in as it is supposed to be. However, there is not a pin holding the handguard ferrule to the gas tube. I would just as...
Hey everyone I have a chance to buy a Chinese sks off a friend I used to work with. He is an older gentlemen that took good care of it. He was helping me lately with a power-point and I have been hounding him about his sks the whole time and he finally said he would take $250 for it today. It is...
Montecarlo fur,rear peep sight,Wilson fire sight front,Tapco mag release Tapco 20 round mag,trigger job by Kivari,pulls at 4 lbs,no creep,high polish black oxide finish,3-4" groups at 100 yds bench rest.
Or looked through one?
My only regret is not having bought it two years ago, and had no idea that it would be such a different rifle. The old leaf sight can be reinstalled. I never do permanent alterations to any gun.
The front sight hood quickly aligns, and forms a nice inner circle for the...
I recently replaced the gas tube on my sks with a tapco model. The spring on the rear sight mount was also fixed. Now it won't cycle. The tube fits snug, but there seems to be a gas leak coming from under the rear sight mount. Any suggestions?
For those of us in those 'other' states - what are the options of pre-ban higher than 10rd capacity mags? I've seen the 20rd fixed (are they reliable?) and the variations on duckbill mags. Are there pre-ban versions and how can they be identified?
Can the duckbills be used without any...
Hi - Bought an SKS that came with the 10 round box not attached. Followed the procedure (to install the mag) of removing the top cover and bolt assy along with the safety in the safe up position. Pushed the button (which is very stiff) for popping out the trigger group but it is not budging...
Went to a local gun store to see if they had a new Saiga 7.62x39. Found this instead (hey, I was looking for Russian; I found Russian). It is a partial Bubba in that someone removed the bayonet, lost the cleaning rod, and painted the stock black. The good news is that they did a good job on the...

I have two good to very good condition Yugo SKSs that I chopped the barrels on and added Phantom Flashhiders. I got rid of all the heavy stuff at the end including the bayonets and the project turned out to look really nice. I was going to mount red dot sights but when I did I didn't like the...

Hello PU Friends:
I'm currently considering getting an SKS rifle to add my collection.
I must admit, I'm a complete "newbie" when it comes to this rifle. That said, I've been watching many videos and checking out various web links to find all the good information out there. But, as I'm sure...
