    Needed to blow off a little steam today...

    So I went for a walk around the place




    The snow is about knee deep in the bush here, enough to make some exercise out of it


    Finished off with a few rounds out of the sks

    An SKS was the first semi auto rifle I bought after coming to the US. Reason was...it was only $80 and ammo was cheap. I tripped out on the fact so many were having slam fires and wanted to keep the rifle loaded for self defense reasons at home.....but was too sketched out to do so. Plus the whole fixed magazine/stripper clip arrangement was too slow on the reload. So it seemed a waste of time having one and I got rid of it.

    Just to have....I wish I had kept it.

    That's really beautiful where you live mate. Thanks for sharing.

    I like my sks for what is.

    Dead dependable, cheap, fun plinker, and I don’t mind the stripper clips. Everything is pinned to five rounds here anyways, so I’d rather not have a bunch of bulky mags full of air taking up space.

    I just don’t shoot groups with it, lol

    This ones actually a 2-3” shooter with decent ammo and irons, but, I’m mostly running surplus.

    As far as slamfires, as long as the firing pin and channel is clean, no problems. When it was new, I had one double tap with it because I didn’t get all the cosmoline our. Pulled it apart, cleaned it, and not one problem in 700 rounds.
