SKS build (Slow but with pics)

Got some magpul parts from the EE. I got more than I need and will put them on as needed.

why buy a rail and cover it in those covers? i don't get it.

i love the exposed rail look.
 
that rail looks sweet... did it require and modifications to the original stock? anything that would make the mod non-reversible..


Four allen screws on and off... It might add 5 min to the cleaning time. No modification what so ever. Best 55$ I spent on the rifle.
 
Have you fired it with the rails yet? Can you still use the iron sights? I heard that since it clamps to the gas tube, it somehow affects the gas functioning of the rifle if the rails are on tight.
 
I like the scope base you bought. Personally, I would at least shorten the side rails, or just put in a blank rectangular piece. I would not bother with another stock. It looks very nice just the way it is.

Edit: if you wanted another stock, one of the red fibreglass stocks from SKS man would be a good choice too imo. :)
 

Seriously hoping you are joking in this post. Otherwise you may need to increase your Ativan dosage.....:D

I do agree that from a practical standpoint, many of the SKS add-ons serve as "dead weight" to the platform, but that's just my opinion. Personally I like the ergonomics of the Tapco stock (the one the one with the bayonet cut just in case the undead rise...haha). I also added some "Gator Grip" to the forend and the pistol grip.



Are you finding that your optic is holding zero on that rail system?

WHY YOU WANT RAIL FOR KALASHNIKOV? IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH AS PROCURED FROM IZHEVSK MECHANICAL WORKS? YOU THINK NEEDS IMPROVEMENT? THEN MAYBE YOU FIND JOB WITH ARMY OF RUSSIA! YOU HAVE DRINKS WITH MIKHAIL KALASHNIKOV, TRADE STORY OF MANY WEAPONS DESIGNED AND DETAILS OF SCHOOL FOR ENGINEERING!

OR MAYBE YOU NOT DO THIS. PROBABLY IS BECAUSE YOU NEVER DESIGN WEAPON IN WHOLE LIFE. YOU LOOK AT FINE RUSSIAN RIFLE, THINK IT NEED CRAZY s**t STICK ON ALL SIDES OF WEAPON. YOU HAVE DISEASE OF AMERICAN CAPITALIST, CHANGE THING THAT IS FINE FOR NO REASON EXCEPT TO LOOK DIFFERENT FROM COMRADE. YOU PUT CHEAP FLASHLIGHT OF CHINESE SLAVE FACTORY ON ONE SIDE, YOU PUT BAD SCOPE OF AMERICAN MIDDLE WEST ON OTHER SIDE, YOU PUT FRONT PISTOL GRIP ON BOTTOM SO YOU ARE LIKE AMERICAN MOVIE GUY JOHN RAMBO. MAYBE YOU PUT ### DILDO ON TOP TO f**k YOURSELF IN a**hole FOR MAKING SHAMEFUL TRAVESTY OF RIFLE OF MIKHAIL KALASHNIKOV, NO?

RIFLE IS FINE. YOU f**k IT, IT ONLY GET HEAVY AND YOU STILL NO HIT LARGEST SIDE OF BARN. GO TO FIRING RANGE, PRACTICE WITH MANY MAGAZINE OF CARTRIDGE. THEN YOU NOT NEED DUMB s**t PUT ON SIDE OF RIFLE.

^The above in no way represents my views. I think the op's scope base is very nice! :) Best regards.
