Normal SKS or...?

I would recommend just getting the 'stock' sks. I enjoy my sks more with that way than with the tactical stock and stuff. The only mod I would do is getting the tech 2000 sight and that's it! They are great fun and IMHO everyone should hav at least one!
 
Id buy one stock, run it as is for the first while..... and then look into improving areas that you personally feel the rifle lacks in.... Build your SKS to fit YOU.
 
Get the stock one. Its how they were designed and meant to be fired. Many people tacticool their sks only to find they prefer them in the stock configuration
 
I've done it all over the years.......nothing feels better then a classic bare bones sks just hammering off round after round, but that does not mean I do not enjoy the others hehe.
 
I beg to differ,...... nothing feels better than pulling the trigger you just spent the last afternoon modifying to be better than the stock one, and having that satisfaction afterwards on how great of a job you did. Followed later by reminiscing about how you put up with such a terrible stock trigger all this time :cool:
 
get the stock one. people like to pimp out their sks with garbage plastic stocks and call them black rifles. lol
 
You will end up with more than one eventually anyway. SKS's tend to multiply. Like Gremlins if you are not careful. Get a stock one, then get a tac'd out one and enjoy them both.

Love the trigger on my Chicoms.

I was shooting my $125 Chicom today and I was surprised at how smooth the trigger was. It easily out shoots any of my Russians. Too bad it looks like scat. I got it a few weeks ago, it was still full of cosmoline, but it had been shot. The bolt was covered in black sooty cosmoline, the firing pin was seized in the bolt. The gas tube was full of cosmoline. Cleaned it up and now it shoots great. The furniture is a bit rough and its missing the bayo, so I am thinking this is a good candidate to Bubba.
 
An SKS is a two hundred dollar rifle. You can sink lots of cash into aftermarket goodies but its still a two hundred dollar rifle. I enjoy them for what they are as well as cheap to shoot, but i choose to have a different platform and caliber to sink more cash into that I can get better results and improvement.
 
I have a couple sks's that I left stock one is an unissued 1950 (appears unified), the other is a beautiful rebuilt 1954. I bought the 54 to put all the "up grades " on but after looking into it, nothing I saw was a real improvement. So I picked up a vz 58. My personal opinion is the sks is good at what it is nothing more.
