    The 'grain' and the wear marks in the pics definitely look like metal to me, but I'm no metallurgist.

    The lever is metal. There are a few other pics (and a video) in another thread

    I don't understand the point of changing out the metal 5 round factory "mag". For a fake, plastic , 30 round mag that only holds 5 rounds. Is it just to say you spent more money on your cheap sks or...? Perhaps its an ego thing, or a nostalgia for your child hood nerf gun thing? Do these things top load? or do you have to buy a bunch more, and strap them all to yourself like a Troy Hurtubise with hockey pads.

    I can cut a 10 round stripper clip in half so I have 2 5 round clips, and I can reload with those a LOT faster than mussing around trying to rock in any duckbill mag.

    Maybe it is because folks are free to spend their money as they please.

    The possession of arms is the distinction of a free man from a slave.
