SKS mags, hard to find

JRW (QOR) · May 18, 2013

Anyone know where I can get SKS mags?

The SKS don't and never had a detachable mag. The mag you see on the Internet are aftermarket.

Pretty sure I saw oodles of Tapco mags @ Kelly's earlier this week (in Inwood, ON).

Those use AK-47 mags and haven't been manufactured for some years. I just traded one off last week, had it since the '90s.

I just bought a Tapco from Frontier Firearms a couple of weeks ago and they are advertising 10 packs for $309 so they must have a few left
