My My, how the tide has turned for the SKS...

i do not think it would make the list anytime soon - like they know who have them

It will be on the list at sooner than later. People will have to make a decision at that point and will have to live with it wether they cave in or say "fvck it I’m not giving it away"

We didn’t believe they would seriously ban the AR... how did that work out for us ?
 
I have the tool and the correct targets for 25 meters - but no I haven't with this one. Gave the one I messed around accuracy wise to my brother.

Your welcome bro!


What is the proper zero procedure while we talk about this ?

I usually zero’d them at 100m with the sight set at 1 and it produced expected results at 200m and 300m with the sight at 2 and 3. Kinda regret those expensive car problems... but eh, needed the money to keep going to work :(

Pretty much as I've done the same DT741 but the target above is at 50 with the sights on "U" which according to my son were all the way to the rear on the sight block. I can take a pic and paste to the thread in a bit. Honestly, I'm never really sure what I'm gonna get until I find the sweet spot and just adjust to fire on that setting with corrections for distance.

Just a friendly comment.....
They don't need a list. A ban is a ban.
They don't have a list for all the vz/cz, mini14, m14, cx4, or bolt action Weatherby's and 12g rifles they banned,.. etc, etc..
A few years ago people who said these would be banned were called alarmist, inciting panic, spewing bs, and even told to Foff by some here.
I'm sure Australians and New Zealanders also thought they would not make the list.
 
Chinese TT33 clones shows up around $200-300 sometimes. There are options to tacticool them.

The age of the inexpensive non-restricted milsurp may have indeed ended.... :(

395+tax-this is the real price.

No dealer in Canada advertises prices which include tax. So, for comparison purposes it's the price without a tax. But you are right, at the end of the deal the final payment will be over $400. I don't know how old you are to remember that before Brian Mulroney the prices included a tax. Actually, I liked it.
 
Not all SKSs are created equal. This is one of SKS-D that passed through my hands, in process of sighting in. 100 yards, iron sights.


Nice!!! I never understood the practice of shooting 3 shot groups though. Especially with milsurp ammo. It's like 35 cents a round. lol

I am from East Europe, there you pay the tag price only, tax allways included. Price + tax is a kind of dishonest bussiness, giving the ilusion of cheap price.

Love Kurgans Collection, but, forbidding a serious Boating incident, most of us know {some of} 'what he has'. ;) Don't put past 'them' to make notes of these things.. But, Mehh, who knows..

As little as 2-3 years ago it was 18 cents a round that really helped with the SKS popularity and even now it won’t break the bank for the full cases for sale from some sponsors!
