Scorpio SKS-15 7.62x39mm Non-Restricted

[scotiangunlover]

lol $1000 for an sks i'll jump right on that lmao!

What's wrong with the wood stock it comes with? Why is everyone trying to "ninjafy" this rifle?

Shorter, lighter, optic ready, accepts 10 round mags. I can go on...?

Lipstick on a pig?

 

[tinman304]

kind of interesting but the fact it is fed with xcr mags is questionable considering the main shortfall of the xcr-l in 7.2x39 seems to be the magazines as that cartridge doesnt seem to like that style of magazine.

Where are you getting that info? I use 7.62x39 xcr mags all the time in my ar(chambered in 7.62x39) and in my sks(magwell adapter installed) and have never had an issue. Flawless feeding every time.

Can we get some pics on the forum please. Not all of us are in countries where we can access facebook (and VPNs aren't always reliable).

Couple of questions:

Takedown, how? The chassis looks monolithic. One of the best things about an SKS is how easy it is to take down for cleaning. Which is also important if you fire a lot of surplus corrosive ammo.

Accuracy report pls.: The SKS gets a bad rap for accuracy, which is both fair and unfair at the same time. There's nothing inherently inaccurate about the action, barrel, and ammo. The biggest accuracy killer in the SKS is the loosey-goosey fitment to the stock. A bedding job in an SKS cuts your group sizes in half, but then makes it almost impossible to fully take down for cleaning.

So, really, it comes down to...

How is the barrelled action mounted to the chassis? Is it solid? Maintainable? Help/Hinder the accuracy?

Hey gadget.. When you zeroed your optic. How true to the barrel is the rail ?

Who's going to vend it?

RF

 

[ShotgunNut]

Let's see it in black, that color is butt ugly. Might be interested but not yet. Also, the price is ridiculous imo.

lipstick on ...
never mind

What about cleaning? Is it pain in ass to clean up?

 

[Dorian Gray]

This is interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

when you have regular capacity (30rnd mags) It becomes more of an issue, the xcr 10 rnd ones, lots of people have issues when loaded to full capacity, myself included

 

[driller212]

Wow very cool. At a good price point. You will do well with this I think.

 

[Brian46]

Any chance of seeing one that takes AK mags in the future?

and of course other colors?

My thought exactly

 

[Gatehouse]

If you like as issued SKS rifles only, this isn't for you. If you like the tacticool, this could be good.

Price is right- mag adapter SKS run about $650. Throw in a cool stock, scope rail and flash hider and you are at $900 easy.

Only real question is cleaning. Not a big deal if you use non corrosive and only have to disassemble occasionally, but using corrosive might be a pain

 

[GUB]

So how do the xcr mags run with one less round? Is it a mag issue or a rifle issue when some run and others don't?
