Very interesting indeed. Not your typical modded SKS for certain.

No gas system. Straight pull bolt. I'd be interested to see more targets now that he's done.

Interesting conversion. Thanks for posting.

Very cool and well engineered mod/ build. I like it.

He is an evil genius! I thought the one I have that shot 1.5-1.75 (weighted ammo, trigger work and a list of other mods that another nutter here did) was a piece of work, this is very interesting and it even looks nice!

That is sweet haha, I would own one.

Interesting for sure, I wonder how many hours he put into it.

Interesting for sure, I wonder how many hours he put into it.

Sometimes you've got to ask, what's the point ?

Nice SKS, a little more than just your $200.00 surplus rifle.

That's pretty sweet.

I like it, doesn't look hack job, He did a nice job on it.

I wonder that kind of groups he'll end up with with well tuned handloads?

I think moral of the story is really the value of competent gunsmithing. There's a certain science to it no matter what platform you're starting with. Creativity mixed with skill. Very interested to see what kind of targets that thing will put up after handloads and tuning. Could and should be spectacular.

He has been working on it for over the last year...

 

[quinnjoblow]

I wonder if he shoots corrosive in it. She's a beautiful rifle.

 

[Crazyest Canuck]

WoW!
That is crazy!

Ya! That's what I thought to.

 

[tiriaq]

This would be an interesting project to undertake, to salvage an SKS suffering from terminal tackiekewlitis.

 

[boltonscouter]

Holy schnikey that's ###y!

I always thought the .308 1919 bbl was chromed?
