Best SKS setup ever !!! UPDATED !!!

[Curtton]

-And the front post was a #####... New and Improved Gen 3 tool my ass...

thats one stupid design, im not surprise it snapped off .

about the tapco tool, well , the older ones would bend but the newer ones are solid.

Every man and his dog over in China are making these front sight tools. The Tapco ones are reliable, and made in the USA.

Look what I just got in the mailbox. this calls for a Range trip this weekend

I found with my leapers FST I had to point the c clamp in the right direction depending on what side I was pushing, otherwise the clamp would sit on top of the windage drub and bend itself as I tightened. always look through the hole in the base to make sure the clamp isnt on the drum, if it is then flip the clamp over to the opposite side (front/back) once I figured that out it worked great. Good work Dilligaf, glad you came back to the wood. Your rifle looks infinitely better infidel! I wouldnt leave the house with the old mall ninja fighting stick...

But the ammount of money I dumped in it is the real kick in the balls... If I would of known all I needed was 80$ for sights I would of saved myself alot of trouble...



Like I said ###... lol... to bad I cant find the pics with the 5/40 round mags in it... Looked even better .. .lol ...

^Look likes one of those Afghanistan - back - up - SKS - carbines. jk.

 

[DILLIGAF]

Back-up rifle.....Don't you loose accuracy after removing the mall ninja pistol grips???

 

[Chumlee Bumsnag]

That is sweet. The metal heat shield gives it a bit of SVT mojo. Well done.

I'm after a set of techsights. I didn't see them on sksman's website.
Can you confirm that's where you got them from?

Also, is the insert and front post worth the extra $$ ?

I love the look, it reminds me of the old ventilated hand-guards for the M-1s you occasionally see from time to time, or the Iver Johnson Super - Enforcer.

your thread will now be derailed with Iver Johnson Super - Enforcer ####.

 

[Dench]

^wow hahaha...

I almost want to sell my 858 and buy a sks

 

[DILLIGAF]

Time to take the hacksaw to the SKS

 

[OCCAM]

Does the metal hand guard weight more or less than the original wood?

 

[RickR1100]

DILLIGAF, I'm interested in knowing more about the rear, the TechSight...could you show two or three pictures of how it works/looks when you remove the dust cover for cleaning?

Also, is the front sight fibre optic, is that the "Fire Sight" made by Williams? I know you got it at SKSman, just wondering about the specific part, thanks!

Thanks!
