You have obviously never owned a Norinco m14....
If there were only one perfect gun for the entire world population, there would be only one model, one caliber and one manufacturer of guns. This is clearly not the case and you're right, to each his own and thank god for that. Having one more than we need is what makes some of us, collectors. Not being satisfied with the status quo is what gives us that variety to choose from.

Bubba is the SOB that takes a pristine win 94 and carves the stock, drills holes in the metal or modifies it to never accept a cartridge again. Not someone who takes a 100 mil surp and creates a prototype for future referrences.
The company that I co founded imported that pile of knock offs into Canada and I know enough about them to never add any to my collection.
I have considered removing the bayonet from my SKS and sawing /grinding off the mount to streamline the barrel, but the OP's project sounds like a lot of effort for increasingly small gains. I'd be interested in seeing the pictures as well of course...

You need an AR man. Playing barbie dress-up just isn't the same on an SKS.

I have an AR, but I like to change things up a bit and since I have several SKS why not play around with a couple of them. I like it, so that's all that really matters. I also fix up old cars and change them to my liking, because I build them for me not other people.
Interesting but not very original in thought. Too many off the shelf add ons and way too heavy to carry.
I've always been someone who can't learn shiet from instructions or textbooks, but you show me pictures and I'll understand. I'm curious to see what it looks like once you've finished, but I admit I didn't get past step three or four to what your planning on doing. Pics on completion sounds good.
Also, I don't think anyone here is surprised that the second you posted your own opinion (on the internet, of all places!) that you would be shiet on for it.
