its better than a tapco destroyed sks but that stick is ugly as shit imo
|
|
Well, it isn't a stock stock, it is something he made. It looks like craft and talent, I see why some in GD would have a conniption.
|
|
I like it!
Looks like a mod of one of the Chinese thumbhole stocks. |
|
I am actually kind of impressed.
Tapco-fucked would be much worse, IMO. |
|
I actually like that. Very well done. Wood man has plenty of time on his hands.
The real question is, why is he selling it now? I have a dumb idea sitting in my safe that I use more than any other tool in there. |
|
Kinda like an Italian marble mantle around a fake fireplace in some redneck's 60's vintage single-wide . |

|
The good news is that it looks like no original SKS parts were harmed in the making of that...creation.
|
|
Big deal. For 15 bucks he can pick up a military stock and you would never know.
I would like to shoot it first before I called it junk. |
|
SKS stocks are dirt cheap thanks to all the Bubba's that tapcofuck their guns. It could be worse.

Steam Punk Bubba?
Should have retro scope like this though http://www.opticsplanet.com/leatherwood-8x-usmc-sniper-scope-w-external-adjustments.html?gclid=CIGbyYzhprsCFaxr7Aod2m4AMQ&ef_id=Uqec4QAAAVW502dm:20131210225945:s |

Quoted: All the thumbhole stocks I can find images for look like this: http://picturearchive.gunauction.com/1101064128/8772689/fff12e471d59faff9ab0fc24bf45d36d.jpg I really think that's custom, but of course the chinese could've sent anything.

Quoted: I mean, honestly, who would put this level of effort into the stock of an SKS? It doesn't even look good. Here's his description: "A pimped SKS That takes ak 47 cpils $650.00" https://scontent-b-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/1463193_571205952949246_1002249303_n.jpg View Quote Someone who needed something to practice on? Or something to do in general? I think it's fuckin' sweet... but a bit outta place on an SKS. Maybe if you got one of them Chromed SKSs and dropped it in there... I'm serious. |

I've been wanting a SKS that takes AK mags... locally that would be a good price.
Stock is easy to replace. |

Quoted: Maybe if you got one of them Chromed SKSs and dropped it in there... View Quote I was at a range many years ago where someone showed up with one of the Chinese 'parade' rifles, and it has to be one of the best 'bling' guns out there. Pretty cool, and I'd be more than happy to have one in my collection. |
|
WTF did he do to the front sight. It looks like it was cut down then they tried to turn into something that you'd find on an '03?
|
|
That's different.
Not sure if I would call it "pimped". Fudded, yes. Pimped, no. |
|
Wow. I don't know whether to feel bad for the action or the stock. |
|
|
|
Meh back I the 90s a friend of mine that worked at a cabinetry shop make a copy of a ATI monte carlo SKS stock out of AA walnut
He used to take the rifle to gun shows just to troll for responses |
|
Not for me, but it took more skill than coating it with glue and dragging it through a Tapco catalog. One of our members made a very nice stock for his SKS a couple years ago, lots of work and turned out great.

Quoted: Its an SKS, you can't make it more of a POS View Quote You could make it into a: - Universal M1 Carbine - Sig Mosquito - Century .308 converted MAS 36 or 49/56 - Century Tantal - Jennings whatever - CZ52 -... People tend to forget that SKS rifles are contemporaries of the Garand, not the SCAR. They are quite good at what they were designed to do, even if a bit homely. |

View Quote That's fucking awesome. Also probably turns a $69 gun into a $469 gun too, right? eta: $295 for the kit, I was damn close. Too bad SKSs aren't $69 anymore. I'm not paying $5/6/700 for an SKS even if it does look badass. |
