It’s been completely tapco fucked with the entire catalog and is missing the mag…but for $150 I’m buying it. This is the only photo I got. I guess it will be a surprise when I go to get it but looks Chinese. Attached File |

I miss the $79 SKS's. Mostly cause I waited too long and never got one. Super cheap 7.62x39 ammo too.

I always knew you had to be willing to die to even do this job. But, I don't want to push my chips forward and go out and meet something I don't understand. A man would have to put his soul at hazard. He'd have to say, "O.K.I'll be part of this world

Guy found the duckbill mag and passed it along. I’m still up in the air on what to do with this thing. Attached File |

There's actually no Tapco parts on that SKS that I can see, it's actually trash tier parts probably either Promag or USA brand magazine, and a combination of NC Star - Choate Mall Ninja accessories. |

Choate, ProMag, and NcStar all make some decent stuff today. Who bought Tapco again? |

Franklin Armory bought Bushmaster, and PSA bought DPMS when Freedom Group went tits up, but I don't think Tapco was purchased by anyone. |
