    Uh oh, Pins? Replacement Spring bag? Hmmmmm.... no such thing in the package I received last week. I just double checked the packaging and the box my stock and wartak rail came in, but there's definitely nothing there! What all am I missing, and how can I get it ? I was planning on building mine this weekend, had a fresh SKS coming out of cosmoline this week just for it!

    pin was tough but after that was smooth sailing. (tried 3 sks till one was easy) my magwedge kind of prevented the kit from snapping in easy. but all it took was some little filing to make it fit more snug and snap together.

    They are in two plastic ziploc baggies inside the plastic container holding the stock. The bag containing the spring fell out when I removed the stock from the plastic, but didn't know about the pins until I watched the video. The bag containing the two pins was scotch taped the back side of the cardboard in the stock packaging. It was easy to miss on the white back ground.

    Just completed my installation on my Norinco SKS. The new hand guard pin went in nicely and only required flattening with a punch. The new gas tube setup went back in with out modification but is considerably tighter. Followed the soft mallet video example to lock the trigger group as it was a very tight fit also. Both my new Promag 5 and 5/30 mags snapped in nicely though. It is a very solid setup and could probably fell trees or bad guys.

    Being a tacticool newbie, how can I attach a sling to this stock? The SKS has a built in front sling mount and the original Chinese stock had a side mounted swivel. Do the holes in the rear of the stock take some sort of sling mount insert?

    Got mine today, sure is nice... but...

    Anyone else have an issue with the front qd mount? I have a single point qd sling in the rear and it works fine, but I tried it on the front mount out of curiosity and the hole is slightly too large for the QD and it falls out. A little odd, no....? Might put a rail there, but anyway.. here's a couple crappy cell phone pics of my setup.
