Another SKS ruined by Bubba :P SKS Dragunov themed project.

[Murray 3-D]

Why and how is roughly explained in the vids. Got to test her out today! Smooth shooting, the cheek weld is odd with ear muffs tho. Ejection can be toned down some more. It tosses brass about 10ft at 3 o clock. I will simply drill the 2 gas vent holes a size larger.

Weighs 10lbs without bipod and with an empty mag.

Unfortunately i forgot my rest this morning and didnt manage my morning diet lol i had waaaay too much coffee and thus had the shakes. Plus on top of that my heart was going pretty good from the anticipation of shooting the new setup. So the quick accuracy test i did suffered. Firing LCW non corrosive HPs the gun seems to pattern 5 shots around 3-4moa. Shooter error could literally + or - the group by 1.5 moa. Didn't notice any heat stringing! So thats a win. But the gun may suffer from a out of wack cold bore shot. Ill have to do further testing to confirm this.

Nice project fer sure. If ye want to really get an SKS to shoot consistently tight , then a build that eliminates the gas system is the way to fly.
This one be a Canadian build.

That stock needs to have a cross pin for the action to stabilize when firing. It looks good, but after few hundred rounds the action will be moving back and forth in the fancy stock.

Looks great!

Nice.

I'm working on an SKS Dragunov build myself as well. Nothing too fancy though, but it's turning out better than I hoped. I just need to repaint the stock but keep putting it off.

For your front sight post, did you just cut off the back half with the bayonet lug and repin it or was there more to that process? Also, that is a beautiful end result.
