Looks like a weird combo of those dust cover mounts and a Magwedge mount. I'd just get a magwedge personally - in fact I did. Love it.

doesnt sit down square with the reciever on my referb russian. more space at front than rear. enough that its gona make it shoot low im sure. cant shim it or adjust it because of how the pin goes through the front.

Beater - 1) Have you shot it yet ? 2) Have you used an adjustment tool on your front pin ?

What do you have mounted on your SKS?

Vortex Crossfire Reddot.

At some point I want to slap a scope on it and see what it can do with handloads, maybe take it hunting for ####s and giggles, but right now its just a fun blastin' #### kind of gun, and red dots are perfect for that task IMO.

Oh man. That doesn't look good at all. =(

Kind of wanted two, one set up each way. The Badace red dot mount that replaces the rear sight for a red dot, and the full rail for a scope.

Would get a kick out of working up a load and using it for a few hunting seasons as well, and seeing what it can do. I mean, can't be that much worse than an iron sighted 30-30 right?

I'm hoping SKS prices go down a bit once the CPC reverses a few OiC bans and everyone is busy buying AR15s. lol I could go for another one... maybe 2...

I now fully understand what the old enfield guy were talking about. I miss marstar’s old case of ammo and a SKS for something around $125…
