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.

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

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

Keep it.  In 20 years there will be a dearth of Tapco parts and yer boy will be all the rage w/ a properly Tapco-fucked SKS once the restoration craze ends.

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?

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