I am sort of stymied by the statement of only a 5rd.magazin,on the SKS. All of mine r
10rd'rs. es that's includeing all of the variateions,Yugo.,Chinese,Norinco(also chinese)Russian,Albanian,Models:45,56,056,59/66,es the've all got 10rd.magazins.U must'v made a purchase of 1 wid an deleted 10rd'r.,es had a 5rd.,substituted,possibly by the
sellor.-Charlie.......

FWIW BAdKarma, I struggle getting the stripper clip to load all in a ten round mag. Seems like the first five, once or if I can get them started, go smoothly, but the other five have to be finagled in. lol

So don't feel bad. And I did have some clips that were tweaked in some sorts.

I have gotten better with practice and thus loading with clips has become easier as well.

I tried an aftermarket 5 round mag ( KS requires 5 round cap for hunting), wasnt worth the effort so I bought a .30-30 instead. The 5 round mag wouldnt stay in place, and was difficult to feed rounds into. SOme people have success with after market mags from 5 to 30 cap. I think I'll stick with the intended 10 round factory mag.

In Canada we have a restriction of 5 rds in semi auto center fire , with one exception for the 8rd M1 Garand .
( Trying to figure out politicians decisions reminds me too much of my ex and I get a headache , The vast majority of these lawmakers are completely firearm illiterate )

3 rd restrictions on shotguns
No restrictions on rimfire or any bolt action rifles.
If we want to legally purchase a SKS , they've already bubba'd the mags

Using a 10rd stripper clip , place your thumb over the 5th rd and insert.
When I tried to push down on all 10 , the 6th rd fell out onto the floor.
I have not tried this yet but I will very soon .... is to pinch the 10rd clip inbetween the 5th and 6th rd to help hold the remaining 5 secure in the clip until it's needed.

5rd block welded into the mag

Are you missing the notch on the bolt?

Arizona is the same way for hunting with centerfire rifles.

I saw a post somewhere that said he used a chisel to pinch and possibly cut the stripper clip in half for 5 round use. The mag shouldn't be at fault since it's just blocked, unless the block needs a little adjustment. I would definitely try the pinch trick on a clip or two. I'm looking at doing something similar due to Minnesota 5 round limit on deer rifles. My block will be removeable so I have 10 rounds for zombies. <G> JB

Pinching the clip would be better , IMHO
When the clip is cut , there's room for error since the bullets will only come out one way and a 5rd cut clip can be put in upside down.
Theres no mistake by just looking at ( or simply by feel) which way a pinched clip will feed.
