ive made this kind of shot off hand with my mosin using 50 year old ammo and iron sights. not a difficult shot to make
exactly. as stated above you can make that shot using a 70 year old rifle, iron sights, and 50 year old ammo. head shot? nope, dont think i could do that with the mosin, but a torso shot i can absolutely do.
If you've ever shot a deer or whatever you'll know that isn't the case. You get "buck fever" where you fuck everything up and can't do shit because you're full of adrenaline or whatever. Dude could have also been winded from having 0 stamina, on top of his trump fever.
Was it originally a side folder or did it require a trunion swap?
Limit of 5 20 round boxes, more midway bs
*30 round boxes. So it's not a bad deal at all.
Still 44cpr shipped before tax, rather run PMC
It came with wood furniture and I swapped it out for Hogue grips and Zastava's Gen2 Triangle Folding stock. The folder uses the same hole that the wood stock was attached to, just a different bolt.
Mine's always came with the bright orange 1.4 explosive label on the box.
I used to own a couple different SKSes, but the only one that remains is my factory 26 Chinese "paratrooper" (not actually used by paratroopers of course, they just took surplus SKSes off the rack and chopped the barrels to make them more appealing to the US market). I slightly overpaid for it when I bought it but now they sell for more than double what I paid so I think I won in the end. The 4" less of barrel makes it seriously so much handier. At one point I owned both a full-length Chinese SKS and the para at the same time, now I only own the para.was looking through a pawn shop today and boy do i miss the days of being able to find a non norinco SKS for $300. the norinco ones were being sold for $700, and for that price, while i love the SKS and want one, those arnt worth that. i could get a decent entry level AR for that. oh, if i only had a time machine.
If the NFA wasn’t a thing, open bolt smgs would be very popular for home defense
My friend let me shoot his SKS and it is really fun but unless you somehow get one for cheap I wouldn't recommend it just get an AK at that point. If you are dead set on an SKS you might have some luck if you can find an older woman whose husband died and try buying his guns if he had any. I have a friend who finds estate sales or yard sales where people who don't know shit about guns are trying to dump someone's collection or something and he has had some amazing finds from it and gets them super cheap.was looking through a pawn shop today and boy do i miss the days of being able to find a non norinco SKS for $300. the norinco ones were being sold for $700, and for that price, while i love the SKS and want one, those arnt worth that. i could get a decent entry level AR for that. oh, if i only had a time machine.
I got my chink SKS at sportsmans at a black friday sale for 399. Not what it used to be yeah. But apparently they had come into a stockpile. This was two years ago I think. It needed the bolt piston extension replaced, but other than that, once it was fixed, it runs superbly. I will say cheap Russian 7.62x39 is basically gone. But a lot of companies have tooled up and are now supporting it, so you can get ammo still.
