    Slight change of drift here....high cap mags.......i have a 'permanent' 7 cap mag on my SKS, an A cat AK47 (or chinese equivalent) is usually 5 cap, there is more or less no difference in these 2 firearms (IMHO)
    but i can get an SKS for (roughly) $300 on Gun Citys weekly $1 reserve, brand new in 'cossy oil', while the 'chinky AK' costs around a grand more to buy, why? because through 'Hollywood' and the like, the AK has
    reached 'ICON' status.....thats the only reason why, if you dont have the 30 rd 'banana clip' on full auto, the SKS is the same but much cheaper alternative......

    I have been asked a couple of times by hikers/trampers, 'Ooo you have an AK' and there almost 'swooning'...'NO, I own an SKS' is my reply......'a what?'

    its exactly the same with 'The Black Rifle'....its the 'three sixes' scenario, the 'horned beast' of firearms......not when it has a 5 rd cap mag..........my SKS would kick its arse all the way back to yankyville......

    High cap mags....they need legislation....not semi-automatic 'whatevers'.......discuss

    PS i own both an SKS & AR15
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
