Some recent additions to my Tapco'd Norinco.


1. Rail guard for the bottom rail. I don't use the bottom rail so I wanted a curved rail cover to sit comfortable in my palm. I got a 4 pack for $12.99 since I wanted to try 3 on another rifle.
I cut this one to size and it is of course removable, in case I choose to use a pistol foregrip I also have.







2. T6/AR buttpad by Tapco. Fits perfectly, just like the box says. Adds comfort and some more black colour to the rifle.






3. NcStar short muzzle brake. This is a pin in brake. Installation was smooth. I was worried I would need to shim it, like I've heard from others. This one went on tight and solid. Came with a longer, replacement pin. Pleased with the quality of it as well. Looks great on the rifle too.







I didn't want to deck out this rifle too much like I see commonly done. These minimal mods really finish off the look I was going for. Simple, custom and effective.

That rifle looks great simple /effective too.A good build sir.I may build this version myself . Could ya give a run down of parts/prices/dealers of how ya done her? I would most likely put on a foregrip and a bipod for my build. cheers!
 
Thanks guys. I think it's really easy to make the Tapco SKS look too "busy" with accessories.
Which is a look I don't care for.

PM'd surly...

How's the muzzle break? I am thinking about putting one on but there's several to choose from.

So far so good. Haven't fired it with it on yet.
Quality is good. Tight fit too. Needed a little tap to slide on all the way. So that was a good sign. No wiggle or wobble. It's short, but only in comparison to the really long brakes you see. I also wanted the pin on one, it's the only attachment method I trusted.
The end of the barrel looks very thick now, almost silencer like in thickness.

Ok. Good sign indeed. Going to pick one up this weekend.
 
Looks great! I like seeing the coloured stocks, makes me want to change mine
 
if your muzzle brake is the NC star one its the same one I have. it fits perfectly never had an issue just make sure you check the torque on the bolts after a few hundred rounds it may come loose. I took mine off tho cause it was just one more peice to clean LOL its for sale if anyone is interested.

Mine is a pin on brake, no bolts to torque.
