Tactical/Modded SKS Picture Thread (can we sticky this?)

Did you buy the retaining pin or you made it yourself? I also very interested in having such pin :)

I bought the pin and machined it to spec to fit the receiver cover hole. Just be careful removing the spring and make sure you chuck it up straight. I also modified the spring some so it was tighter and wouldn't rattle.

Yikes! A Norinco with an AK-74 pistol grip attached and a paratrooper style foldable stock. Crazy stuff! I respect it's uniqueness that's for sure!
 
Here is my latest toy. Russian SKS 1953 in a ATI Fiberforce Stock with Custom cheekpiece. Not super happy yet. Still need the ProMag 5 rd mag and the Magwedge Rail (Don't like my current scope mount) The Cheickpeice is custom because I got the stock used and it didn't come with the original. I tried to get ATI to send me a new one, even buy one, but they wont send it to Canada direct to me. I tried a few ATI dealers here but they don't seem too interested in getting one for me either. So I got creative. Anyway thanks for looking.

I love that photo! Nicely done!

However, it doesn't include a cluttered background full of junk, a pink-painted wall or a pile of dirty laundry. It's in beautiful focus. The entire gun is shown, no cut-off barrel. And you didn't even lay it down on a dirty carpet and then snap the shot from above, making sure to include a few big, hairy toes in the shot. Are you sure that it meets CGN photo guidelines?

Beautiful shot! :)
 
That is a sweet setup Charles!! still keeps the vintage military look. I could see The Russian paratroopers using that exact setup if the AK never existed! or even mobile infantry.
are the stock and pistol grip 2 different mods?
 
Thanks for the complents.

The stock is a donor that had the butt removed, resawn and laminated into the pistol grip. You can see the S/N on the grip.

The folding stock was originally for a CZ 858.

A lot of great looking rifles here. Excellent job. I am not a collector myself and am after performance 1st, and looks 2nd. Here is my Russian 1954 SKS.

This carbine has an ATI Strikeforce stock with adjustable/collapsible butt stock. Choate scope mount, Tapco 5/20 rnd mags, NCStar muzzle brake, Bulldog 2 bipod, SunOptics reflex sights, and a flashlight mounted using a home-made rail mount made out of a spare laser sight mount and some steel. And this is just what's on the outside.

I am looking for performance above all else. That is why I chose a 1954 Russian SKS which comes with a chromed barrel and a clicky-type safety (and also because I'm Russian :D )
I have also done the following mods:

Re-crowned the barrel
Murray's spring loaded firing pin
"Drop free" bolt mod to allow inserting and extracting mags with closed bolt
Reworked the sear for positive engagement and other trigger assembly components for lighter and smoother trigger
Milled out the ejection port for shell deflection at 3 o'clock
DBL mag adapter and DBL mags
Improvised night sights with glow in the dark compound, since the Tritium night sights for the SKS are elusive, almost non-existant
Cut off the bayonet and used the endpiece to hold the cleaning rod in place
AK-style mag release as seen in the pics
Self-made sling

The only thing I'm missing is a buttstock pouch, soon to be added however. All work done by me.
I'll be keeping the cleaning rod attached, cleaning kit, and all the necessary tools in the pouch to have the ability to strip and clean the rifle in the field. I even stuffed a bunch of cleaning patches into the hollow buttstock tube, lol.

This is my SHTF rifle which is why I modified it the way I did. To be used at a max of 300m-350m where the cartridge is most effective. Blind the zombies with the bright flashlight and then shoot in the head while they are disoriented, quickly switch mags, repeat. Performance first and the rest comes after. I think I have had waaaaay too much fun modding this SKS.
 
It is so much fun to mod the sks! Good job dude! Im looking at getting a second to build up
