Wogger if you click the quote+ icon in the lower right on each post, then hit reply to thread, you will be able to multi quote in a single post. Just FYI.

Thanks
I'll get this internet thing figured out one of these days.

All this time I was copy and pasting and manually typing the QUOTE tags in bbcode.

Ha, don't worry about it, its not a well known forum feature. Even to most regulars.

Maybe not, but he sure knows how to shoot one.

I'm going to test tomorrow if I can load all 5 from the bottom at the range. Will post video.

 

[mississaugagunnut]

Lol, I already tried that. It works but you have to be careful to align the Rd's on the correct side of the magazine.

Is he in Canada? Surplus steel core is super rare in the US, especially Russian

Jerry's definately not in Canada, but he probably has ammo from before Jesus was born... I always drool a little at those sagging shelves of product behind him in his videos

Not senile either, or even senial.... That old bugger is still winning three gun all over creation. Best all around shooter with any platform ever, I would say.. Certainly best known for his crazy DA revolver skills

 

[Beater]

so not Canadian, wonder why he only loads 5? why not the full 10

 

[westarm]

awesome video thanks for that, it is a testament to the fact that most guns are much better than most shooters can shoot them, lol, hey can am prob a good video for having the good ol sks on sale right on?? hope you sell a ton, great deal, and I assume not Canada being as he is loading 6 into the bottom

 

[leverboy]

I think he just loads 6 cuz he bases his speed drills on what he does with revolvers quite often... Lots of 6 on one target or 2, 2, and 2 on three targets in his videos...

I took my sks to the range today. Yes you can load all five from the bottom.

Not sure why people are so surprised at this technique... Just an old school way of topping up any drop-bottom internal mag.

Thanks for making the video to prove the point.

And anyone calling Miculek a senile old coot... If Miculek forgot 95% of everything he's learned about firearms, he'd still know more than 99% of the people on this board.

Miculek is the man and certainly 100% with it!! ...that said, I think the author stated that 'tongue in cheek'

Next could you make a video of shooting so fast that the last round actually gets ejected like in the video? I know he says it was due to the feed lips, but just to make sure

Wow. Jerry is quite an amazing shooter. I never could hit past 100m consistently with irons standing or sitting when I owned an SKS. Just goes to show what metric tons of practice will get you.

Well I'm going back to the range on Monday... We'll see!
