I've always liked the SKS as an in-between rifle of the Mosin and AK-47. The bayonet is very similar to the Mosin bayonet. It was a cruciform design with the flat tip. I've used my mosin bayonet as a screwdriver to take the rifle apart. One other feature that separates the SKS from the AK-47 is the SKS is a short-stroke piston recoil design where the AK-47 is a long-stroke piston design.

Right on man! I think all 3 have their uses

4:59 glass bed, super glue/wood glue with saw dust either one should work fine. it'll not only act as an adhesive but it'll also add structure to support the crack. the sks is probably one of the most well design military rifle that was quickly replaced by the assaults rifle concept. it's def quality.

Copy that! Thanks brother!

I think the best would be epoxy, something that sets over 24 hours. Wood glue would probably be better but epoxy is generally stronger and it sets longer so it can soak into the wood better

Heck yeah man! Thank you!

I would sweat out the stock just to make sure there is no residual oil or cosmoline and used epoxy or acraglass along with fiber glass cloth on the back side of the crack. Good video.

My cousins still living in occupied Canada have slowly adopted this as their freedom stick of choice. Sad that the the People's Republic of Trudeau has shrunk those choices. I still worship at the Temple of AR-15 shorty (but confess to cheating with my lifelong love affair of the No4 Mk1). Sadder still, Canadiens are limited to blocked off mags restricted to 5 rounds.

Your SKS is in very poor condition. May be the North Vietnamese used it to much against USA in Vietnam war.
