Well, I bought some goodies for my SKS. I wouldn't have normally gone full pimp, but I run a little shooting business in Whistler and take clients out shooting, and I knew they would like it. Here it is:
Pretty comical to bolt on so much extra $$$ gear on a rifle I bought for $75, but the clients seem to think it's cool

If you extend the bayonet, doesn't the light in your eyes blind you?
Here is my old one. I sold it a few years ago but wish I still had it.
Headed to the range today to find out...
Ok, range answer - not a single casing hit, cases come out to the side and completely miss the scope. Having problems sighting the scope in though - sits too high to use my bore sighter, can't see a laser at 100 yards, at 50 yards scope is good and doing 2-3" quick groups, at 100 yards - not even on paper - WHAT THE ??????? I go back to irons and at 100 yards - hitting great 10" groups on relatively quick shots >>NO ISSUES<< - scope back on, sight it in on the 50 yard target.... back on 3" groups....move over to the 100 yard targets - off paper. LMAO. Silly SKS.
Maybe the scope is too cheap, I noticed a lot of reticle movement inside all over the sighted target with MINIMAL movement. More work to do to see if I can get this thing working better.

This used to be mine. With permission of the new owner, Im putting up the pictures of it.
I had originally stained the laminate wood, muzzle brake on it (welded), Wartak rail, and took it down to the white on the mag/trigger guard/and receiver cover.
His addition was the new badass stock, and going down to the white everywhere else on it.

The way I have mine setup at the moment...
Whats been done:
- Archangel SKS stock
- Wartak Scope mount
- Nikon Prostaff 4-12x40mm scope
- Tapco 5/20 mag (and various others)
- Bolt has been modded to allow mag to be removed when closed

- Ncstar short muzzle brake
- UTG deluxe folding bipod
What I plan on doing:
- Grind off bayonet lug
- maybe recrown muzzle
- Remove Wartak mount and replace with AK side rail
- Mount a PO 3-9x24mm Russian scope
- Build low profile shell deflector
Here's mine
