To many names to list!! They are all very nice looking rifles. If I had the money I'd have a room full. Hopefully our RKBA will be around for a long time. Chas

Here is my Yugo, wanted to wait 'till I had my 7 compliant parts before posting(the John Mason 30rnd mag made it easy). Tapco T6 stock and piston, JM mag, bulldog 3point (not a compliant part but makes toting this bad boy much easier). Sure glad the prices are coming down again.


Man I would like to find a lammy like Timbers, that is a wall hanger.

Wall hanger ? ...no way ! ...but it's a keeper for sure.
I'm getting under 4" groups at 100yd ( out of a a cold barrel ) with this '52 Tula.
It's going deer hunting in a couple of weeks .

We're seeing plenty of the Russian refurbs in lammy stocks here in Canada.

...and thx for the compliments fella's

Nice setup Roggom. I'm really interested in hearing how the magazine works out for you.

The red dot is a cheapo BSA, but it has a wide field of view and the 5moa dot will mark center mass. It sure did the trick and only took a few rounds to zero it in. The magazine on the other hand never made it to the range. I was getting slap happy with it and forgot to open the bolt and slapped that bad boy right off the welds. The spring and guide went paachoooingg and flew across the room. Oh well, I thought since it was metal it would be better quality, but it is only spot welded together, Im gonna rivit it and make a Frankenstien magazine.

Anywho, I have a Tapco 5 round and a 20 round on the way. The feed on the 5 rounder is good until the 5th round gets eaten up (stovepipe) I think I read about this somewhere online and will research if there is a way to fix that.

The Vietnamese and Koreans were supplied with the following makes of SKS rifles::

Sino-Soviet(first generation SKS rifles built with Soviet tooling in China)
Norinco/Chinese


The best SKS rifles you'll find are Russian, Sino-Soviet, and Norinco hands down. The Yugos are cool if you like the Grenade Spigot...but other than that they aren't all that special.


Plus the Russians INVENTED the SKS. Why int he world wouldn't you want a Russian SKS??

I believe Poland made a few sks's, if its anything like the quality of their m44's and ak's, it should be high quality too

I always wanted a Dragunov and not the PSL-54. Decided to do a look alike Dragunov to my SKS.

Choate Stock and scope mount, Tapco 20 rd mag, Type 74 threaded muzzle.

Full size pictures can be seen on my web page:

Just a run-of-the-mill 59/66, I'm afraid.

Nothing special - I'm not in to tactical stuff and plastic stocks are soul-less.

Thanks Frenchy & Milkman - the wood is a little "dry" but she shoots as well as she looks.

Drat - now that I've referred to her in the feminine sense I guess she needs a name. Maybe Maja...
