I can understand the desire to discard such a stock.
I purchaced an SKS/AK-mag "sporter". (for the previously uninformed, "sporter" almost always goes hand in hand with "Gay thumbhole stock". You are now informed.) Although
thumbhole stocks have their purpose, they have no purpose on Battle or Combat rifles. I propose to not use one by choice.
I bet the Patriots that wrote the stupid law up penciled in that idea with a couple of guys laughing him on like: "Hey, I bet this will piss these guys off".

Sorry to run off topic.
I bought this thumbhole SKS that took the AK mags at a deal of around 150 Georges. It had been 175, but I told the pawnshop clerk that without a magazine he would have to come off it a bit.
I dont feel bad about it because they have a policy of buying guns strickly through pawn and sold as premium. Which makes me save my true buisness for my respectable Dealer.

I hated to part with it but let it go due to the market fluctuation caused by the romanian imports. I got a good trade and the person that got it can afford to hang on until the market ripples out. I on the otherhand am waiting for September 2004.
