Awesome looking gun. I took my SKS with the same tapco stock to the range for the first time on Friday, between a myself and a buddy we put 400+ rounds down range. It was a blast. I really want to make my SKS look almost identical to the one that started the thread. How do I go about making my sks accept the AK style mags?, and do the stripper clips still work with the gun once it has been modded to accept the clips? I am a bit of a noobie to the gun world, the sks was actually my first purchase, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated...
