Yugo SKS Project

[mstraus]

This girl was cut down by previous owner. Picked up at a local pawn shop. Was a wreck. Stock bubba'd So dressed her in black and added some eye glasses. A nice shooter.

Eeeek
No longer C&R
Hope it shoots well at least.

 

[mstraus]

Yup No longer C&R. but that is ok. I could put her back If i wanted. Always keep stock parts

Nice job! I would like to find a beater Type 56, Norinco, or Yugo M59 to do something like this with.

I have a type 53 all set for this type of project. but don't want to open up that can of worms on here and get filleted again.

I think the difference is that he is using a rifle that was already cut down, not an intact rifle.

There are enough cut down rifles out there that can be made into new projects that we should not have to cut down any new ones.

Not bad looking, really. What kind of mag does it run?

I wonder if in the future people will criticize all the mods and customizations we are doing to our ARs today?

 

[thomfantomas]

blasphemy

 

[Drmsparks]

I can appreciate every thing he did to his SKS. He re purposed another's bubba into something functional and attractive in a tactical kinda way. Knowing that no rifle was sacrificed makes that possible in my mind.

nope. Nobody has ever made fun of this:

Perfectly true, but it's no longer a collectible C$R, and that's what this group's about.
