New rifle

Yesterday I finally picked up my new rifle. It is a Chinese type 56 SKS made in 1980, unissued and unfired.

I know these things are like Honda Civics, there are so many after-market parts for them. Are you going to mod it in anyway?

I am gonna keep this one all original. I plan on picking up another that I will modify with new stock, piston, mag, and a new rear site.

Good idea. For the next one, folding stalk? Synthetic?

Nice. That is exaclty the style i had in mind when i mentioned Synthetic. Hope to see some pics of the next one. Some before and after pics maybe?

I can do that, gonna be awhile though I gotta go work for the next month before I can have 3 days off. Good news though there is a gun show at the end of next month (on my days off ) so with luck I can find one there.

Nice rifle!

I used to have a Chinese made AK47 I still kick myself in the butt for selling it but I got way more than I paid for it because it was a pre ban gun sold during the ban.
