Finally got my SKS "built" to my taste.
These are guite rare where im from, atleast in the hobby communities. Maybe because we can also buy.
AR's and AK's or pretty much anything, so nobody really "wants" an SKS
Bought the gun from local hardware store and it was in rough shape with some dodgy metal 35rounder mag and was absolutely dirty inside.
Basicly shot once, threw one bullet out and jammed, so every third shot was ”succesfull”
-Bought 10 round promag which works very well
-3D printed magazine relase lever for shooting finger
-Bought badace picatanny mount and fitted a cheapish red dot (have shot a lot of rounds with it, cheap but good)
-Removed the bayonet to save 350grams from the tip of the gun and compensate added weight of the scope
Shoots well with these surplus ammo from 1957, fits the theme of the rifle very well
Still to do:
Modify the bolt so you could insert the mag without pulling the handle
