Yes I read aboutt his in some of my research.Diode wrote:WheySmart , in case you didnt know, the Yugoslavian's did not chrome their barrels so keep it oiled well on the inside. Speaking of that, anyone got suggestions on what to put on the barrels that would work better than oil?

Some of the stripper clips I purchased are slightly bent, anyone know a good way to bend them. They are steel but with the properaplication of force I think they will be useable.

If you're REALLY into the SKS, you can build a pretty sizeable collection. In no particular order there are: Russian Tula and Izhevsk, Romanian, Yugoslavian M59 and M59/66, Albanian, Chinese with dozens of arseanls and variations, and also the very rare (never imported) East German, North Korean, and North Vietnamese. I've got a pretty good selection of them, but I absolutely will not modify any of them in a way that isn't 100% reversible. There's a reason mine stay pretty much unchanged. Most of the aftermarket parts and mods are junk.The only one of mine I've modified is a Norinco that i got cheap, and all I did was remove the bayo and camo paint a Chinese "jungle" stock for it.
Here's a pic-see if you can find "Waldo":
There are are several websites and even a pretty good forum on the SKS. These will get you started:
Good site for history of the SKS http://www.simonov.net
This is a good FAQ page http://www.victorinc.com/SKS-FAQ.html

That is a neat idea...Does anyone know of a way to make your own bipod. I don't have a welder and don't want to weld on my new gun anyway. Is there a way to make one out of pvc piping or another material? Just theories are welcome too.racer32 wrote: The only ones I've seen were pretty flimsy-looking...probably not much more effective than using the bayonet for a "mono-pod."

Sat. at the Dallas Market Hall gun show...I had a guy walk up and offer to sell me a real russian SKS made by TULA arsenal, and it was in wonderful condition with laminate stock...210.00!!!! (I didnt have the 210.00grrrrrrrrr) he didnt get 40 feet away till another guy bought it.
yes...these are the SKS's on gunbroker for 400-600.00
I did pick up a East German issued M44 Mosin carbine today though.

I see, I have a pretty good idea of where you are talking about.
As for the home-made bipod....progress is being made.
