Hello my Canadian brother. I assume you adopt Russian stock to Chinese SKS-D receiver. Am I correct? Asking because I was expecting the regular SKS conversation to SKS-D style carbine.
no, that would be too complicated for most people including a hack & mod kinda guy like me. those who dont use machinery end up either destroying the gun or having constant feeding issues.
@@gnutzguy it's a conversion that turns the sks into a modernized bullpup.i was just curious if the drum would work with it. Thanks for the good information anyways
i just saw what the bullpup stock looks like, its boootiful. lol. too bad its banned in canada... sad. good question but judging from the pic, im guessin it will not work unless you wanna cut that expensive SG stock, please dont.
I hope your SKS-D is better than mine. Mine is very picky on mags for reliable feeding. I also have a machinist friend who is making me an ambi safety. I will then modify the stock for the finger relief notch. I have tried for years to locate an orginal Norinco ambi safety. Cool project for me though I think I may just find anther SKS-D or SKS-M stock to modify to have tge metal reinforcement.
Hey Gnutzguy, what feeds better in your SKS-D, Type 81 box mags or AK box mags? If you had none and had to buy 1 or the other which would you choose? Thanks.
I just paid 700. Chinese gem though. I couldn't pass it up. I really do think it may never have been fired. !! Especially after watching your vedios on your "never been fired"...🤯
Another great video Gnutzguy, quick question, will regular Type 81 mags fit or do they need to be filed down on the mag catch like you did on the drum?
It is my understanding that the wings of the lug were removed and then a ball bearing and other material were used to fill in the groove for the better retention of the cleaning rod. On the SKS-M and SKS-Sporter that I have with these neutered bayonet lugs, the added material is evident. I am curious if your receiver is actually marked SKS-D. The SKS-D that made it to the US are not marked SKS-D and they have bayonets and stocks that have the bayonet groove. After the Norinco ban in 1993, there were groups of SKS-D, marked as such, that had the neutered bayonet lug and grooveless stocks that were imported into Canada supposedly even as late as 2002. Do you know when yours was made?
mine had no added material, it just wasnt completed. i have a collection of "D" with most marked with a "D" except one, my mystery SKS-D. best you look thru over 2 dozens sks vids of mine listed in the description. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-67ChfMU_rig.html
Hey I just got an SKS D today (in Canada). I only now realized that my SKS D has an original SKS pull tab magazine release, rather than the AK style magazine release every other one has. It also has a stripper clip cut out on the bolt, yet the bolt matches numbers with the rest of the gun so it obviously wasn't replaced. Do you have any information about this? Is it possible to swap the magazine release with the AK style on that you have?
sks-d are commercial variants so there are many variation. chinesesks.weebly.com/commercial.html if yours has 18.5" barrel and monte carlo stock then its a variant MC-5D. more value bcos of the short barrel. see mine. ru-vid.comjZ223eOWVyA but if you tamper with the mag catch, the value will drop.
You got kinda mislead. There’s a company called Kodiak Defense who did a run of modded SKSs that could use AK mags. While it does take AK mags, it’s not an original SKS-D like shown here, it’s just an SKS modified to take AK mags.
you are talking about SKS-KD, we are talking about SKS-D. KD are russian conversion. chinese D comes in many variations. see blow, chinesesks.weebly.com/commercial.html
nope, i spent my whole career in office and board rooms. the heaviest thing i carrier was my brief case, lol. but thats my point of my channel, you dont have to be an engineer or a gunsmith to do what i do.
