Re: Is the SKS sufficient enough for rural survival?
you would be hard pressed to beat any Military rifle or carbine for a survival weapon. It proved itself all over the globe . The cartridge is really a good choice for under 300meters as that is whats it is designed for. It took down many a fighter in Vietnam Africa and in Yugoslavia's war not to men...

Re: 1966 Chinese Type 56 from Factory /26\
I don't think that most guys grasp the thought that almost all the Chinese sks carbines that came here were rebuilt. The ones that may not have been are slim. You really cannot try and figure them out as they do not waste parts and scrub them and re use them as needed. The Russian s do not bother in...

Re: Canada V USA
has anyone tried to do a form for importing a curio and relic from Canada I read they just made that possible. I would think the SKS would fit that bill as well as the Other Russian semi autos But I am not sure on that.
