Where do SKS's belong?

The SKS is the only Russian weapon some would truly consider 'fine'.

Where did this AK trash can meme come from? AKs are great rifles.

I much prefer my SKS to my AKM.
That's a beautiful example, OP. Details? |

Love my Russian SKS. Bought it for $119 in the 90's. Should have bought a bunch.

Only good SKS is Tapco'd SKS. 100% less reclaimed Indonesian fence post.

There's a sign right on the table, "please remove your litter"

Where did this AK trash can meme come from? AKs are great rifles. Pull up a chair and read for a while. It is about Them being junk and not as good as AR's, but it is also because during Cola Warrior it is part of the run. The AK is held in a trashcan and during the run is taken out, disassembled, reassembled and placed back in the can for the next runner. And for those who think Thier AK is great, let Me see You do a run where You shoot targets from 50,75, 100 ,125, 200, 300yrds after running a half mile and make hits while the timer is running. When was the last time You saw Someone run 3 gun with an AK? |

Quoted: I forget, Did You run this year with an AK? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes No. There wasn't an AK prize category this year and the girlfriend ran the AR so I ran with it. I like AKs, but I'm not stupid. |

They should be zeroed, oiled, and racked with loaded Chinese bandoliers of strippered ammo stored in a cubby below each rifle.
A dozen or so at minimum if you are a Kulak |

See, I brought My AK and thought I might run with it just to say it could be done, Then I saw the 200 and 300yrd targets and rethought that. |

Quoted: Unbubba'd SKS yes Bubba'd SKS no View Quote This. A well taken care of (or rejuvenated with care) SKS is a thing of beauty, one that has been bubba-fied is a crime against humanity. I had a really nice SKS that after I cleaned all the cosmoline off frankly was frankly shocked at how good it looked and what condition it was in, especially at the price which was around $90 or so in '94. It was a Romanian one and ran as expected for an SKS, that is went bang every time and ate everything I fed it; but wasn't going to trick anyone into thinking it was a target rifle. Damn nice weapon, and every time the SKS subject comes up I kick myself for selling it. |

I like AKs, but I'm not stupid. View Quote This sums it up. I saw surveyor take off with an AK and about 300 rounds of ammo. I said to somebody, "he's gonna run out of ammo." AKengineer: why would he run out of ammo? Me: Damn I didnt see you standing here, nevermind. 15 mins later: pew... pew... pew... pew... 30 mins later: pew... pew... pew... pew... Me: Hey Akengineer, you were right, he probably won't run out of ammo if you take him some. 5 minutes later: FFFFUUUUUUUUU pewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpew... |

Nice looking rifle.
I like the flip out toothpick thingy on the front. |

OP doesn't always make call-out threads, but when he does, he makes sure to label it as NOT a call-out thread.
Fuckin' SKS? It's a good enough commie weapon from a 60-year-old army. It holds about the same esteem as a Mosin. If it's cheap, buy one and have fun with it, but it's a poor choice for any serious purpose. A bit less elegant than an SVT-40 or an SVU, but more elegant than an AK of any type (so long as the SKS isn't TAPCO-fucked). All of them are inferior to a proper rifle. |
