Just wanted to say hi, you guys have a great site here. I've been surfing in the back ground for a few weeks and deceided to sign up. I have included a couple of family photos, (if I did it right), one is my new WASR I got for christmas and the other is my Russian SKS I bought about 12 years ago, I was a pre-Clinton FFL holder at the time. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-1/933260/IMG_0390.JPG |

If you find that it is uncomfortable to shoot due to the purposefully short design of the buttstock, you can cheaply add a rubber buttplate that extends the stock out a few inches. They're widely available. That's the inexpensive way. I tried it and took it back off. I'm 6'-0", 210 lbs and still liked the short stock, although it does take a slight bit of getting used to at the very very first. After a few rounds, I sort of liked being "up on" the rifle as I fired away. |
What they probably mean is that they won't fit on thumbhole stocked rifles. A recoil pad does not count as one of the imported parts on an AK, so you can add it no problem. |
