Hunting for a Factory 20 Round Magazine for an SKS

[70m4h4wk]

I'm looking for an SKS magazine, the 20 rounders with the star on the side, or even better, the ones without the star. There are a few in the US but I can't find anyone to import them. Something about a sanction on Chinese goods. Does anyone know anything about these? Did any make it into Canada? Does someone's sibling's cousin's former roommate have one they want to get rid of?

Here's a picture of my Holy Grail for the interested:

Yeah I saw one for sale on the E&E years back but that was it. Don’t know of anyone who brought them but who knows, I did see 2x 16inch sks paratroopers for sale on here and at gun shows and was told none came in country ever!

I saw there is another guy looking for one as well, his add has been active for a while.

That might be mine. I've been searching on and off for a couple years now.

The only one I have ever seen was in a Gun Magazine many years ago . the article was on the difference between the 556 and 762x39 . Good luck .

They look ugly, like a retractable keel on a sail boat.

glad these are factory. dont buy non-factory steel mags, those have feeding issues.

Or the OP could do what I did and modded some 20rd Tapco mag for stripper clips. Took the measurements from the stock steel/factory mag et voilà!

Y’a forgot about him, I think he’s shut down or something about being sick. I never saw this mag but I wasn’t really looking for it either.

Thanks for the tip. Looks like they went out of business. The company that bought them just does tactical gear.
