Poll: How many SKS's do you own?

[Zokakoka]

i like the price of the sks but prefer the cz 858 which I own. My next gun will be a sks for sure

It's funny people always debate whether they should buy an SKS or spend a little more on a cz858... but in the end, they will eventually buy both either way lol

3...one overworked and beefed up,2 bone stock-right now negotiating over a 4th one and all of them are russian '52 to '56

 

[sparkymacker]

I have four Russian's; I had a Chineses one...too junky. I would not mind getting some more; but I prefer the non-franken pinned ones.

 

[SuperDan]

1 Norinco and 1 Russian Tula

 

[shredder]

2 Russian refurbs, one is in MUCH better shape than the other. #2 is actually used as a backup hunting rifle, and #1 is the - ahem - "experimental" rifle

 

[GREG510]

One NORC and one 1950 TULA

I bought a laminate russian sks from weimajack a couple of weeks ago. Waiting ten working days for my cheque to clear. Hope it comes in the mail soon. I have a crate of ammo with nothing to shoot it with...

Here is my contribution.

nice little collection dude!

 

[The Kurgan]

2 fully refinished mild refurbs ('52 & '54 Tula), and 1 unissued, unfired, non-refurbished '51 Tula.

Oh, and I had an ugly '49 that's now gone.

 

[lone-wolf]

A Yugo M59 & a chinese military(pre-recent imports) that was surprisingly solid and had an awesome pinning job. It's my test bed for any ideas I get for an SKS.
A yugo 59/66 and a russian sks is on the 'to buy' list.

I don't have mine yet, but canada post says it will be delivered today!

I rarely shoot them now, I prefer the Cz858 and Cz52/57, seeing as cleaning is such a chore anyway...

 

[cz52]

.... as cleaning is such a chore anyway...

Funny thing, I stopped cleaning my Chinese one for a couple months and after a while it started to slamfire, meaning it was shooting 2-3 rounds on trigger pull. So I ended up having to clean it, regardless.

Yeah, it has a free floating firing pin, so proper maintenance is a requirement to operate safely. Just leaving the piston after a range trip without wd40 or oil will almost guarantee rust or a bolt action if you leave it long enough.

One. 53 Tula refurb. she's gonna stay stock. i sleep with her

 

[blueflash]

Now that I own a cz858, I dont own anymore sks rifles, although I think I might pick one up for my kids to shoot. The wieght of a sks makes for a good shooter for smaller folks.

 

[cainesy]

I have 2 so far, a '51 Tula all original, and a '53 black bolt refurb, she's my favorite shooter. Cheers.

 

[Brutus]

None yet

None, had one once and I was not happy with the accuracy.
Got rid of it. I can see the appeal for low cash outlay and if one is not a reloader.

Just not my thing. But I am sure someone here, gets thier venison every year with one.

 

[Chumlee Bumsnag]

I have 2 Norincos. One shooter, one in cosmo still. I plan on getting some Russian ones too.
This was with surplus ammo at 200 yds & iron sights. I've since made adjustments, and am on center of target now.
