About Me
My name is Brandon Herrera. I'm the owner and operator of The AK Guy Inc, a 07 Firearm Manufacturer based out of Fayetteville, NC. I also co-own Stark Media Group, and designed the rifle known as the AK-50.
I've started to dedicate this KZread channel above all to have fun, but also as a way to document my entrepreneurial journey for the next few years as I try to grow my companies. Hopefully, people can learn from my example, successes, and failures.
Either way, I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, and I hope it's just as fun to follow along!

    My Grandpa served in the soviet army in the 60's. He was one of the best shooters. So when he left the army and became a bus driver, he would sometimes bring reservist officers to a gunrange to practice shooting. In the Winter the Officers would shiver because of the Cold, so my Grandpa just did the shooting for them.

Colt Ar15 HBAR was $599, galil $600. All ammo was $89/1000. 22LR was $5/500, I never bought any of that really cheap stuff, I wonder why? 🥸

    I bought 4 SKS's back in the early 90's and gave one each to my 3 boys. I taught them how to shoot and hunt with them. I love these guns. Triggers are real rough off the shelf but that was easily rectified. The one I kept for myself would repeatably shoot under 3", 3 shot groups @75 yards. Not bad for a battle rifle and iron sights. And these are milled receiver guns for what it's worth.

    I bought an SKS several years ago when they were only $200-300. It's a Norinco that is in really good shape with a TWENTY (yep I typed 20) round internal magazine. I put a B-Square scope mount on it with a UTG Bugbuster scope so that I can still use stripper clips to load it. I replaced the firing pin with a spring loaded one (no more bump fires). I'd sell my dead mother's urn before I'd sell it.

    I've had my SKS for 20+ years. Shot thousands and thousands of rounds through it. Cleaned it maybe 2 times, It always fires and is plenty accurate to 200 yards. With a nice fiberforce stock, my own design scope mount, and removeable clips it is a great gun.

    My dad and uncle each got dirt cheap SKSs in the 90s, along with a train load of that steel-core ammo they used to have all over the place. They didn't get used very often compared to the lever guns, but when the SKSs did come out it was usually to put a hole through something that no one else could put a hole through. There's a big thicc pipe out by a reservoir they used to camp by, and for the longest time there were only 2 holes in the pipe (one from the SKS round going in, one from it coming out sideways). Now that the standard artillery is no longer the .30-30, there are a lot more holes in that thing, but for a good few years that keyhole steel-core penetration looked very impressive.

    I went to a gun show, at one of the large LA venues, sometime in the 70s. There were what seemed like acres of Russian, German and Japanese rifles, pistols and schtuff. I dismember the price on the SKS, starting at $25.

    My grandpa bought a Norinco SKS “sporter” when he was in the service. With an aftermarket “look-under” scope mount, I gotta say it’s my favorite hunting rifle. The only bad thing I can really say about it is it just will not cycle steel case ammo. She may be cheap, but she still has standards. Meanwhile my RAK-47 made in NC cycles steel case no questions asked. I can shoot a lot farther away with the SKS, but my AK shoots trash and makes it perform like treasure.

    I’ll never forget the first time I cleaned it. I fully disassembled it, I didn’t just field-strip it. It has it’s own cleaning kit in the rear of the stock, but we couldn’t find its rod… I made due with a couple borrowed rods from a .38 cleaning kit. My AK rod was either too short or too stubborn to get off the rifle, I can’t remember. Lol There was still this wax in the stock from where they packaged it for shipping.

    The first SKS I ever saw was in 1967 at a pawn shop in Oceanside California right next to Camp Pendleton. I was a junior in high school. A Marine had brought it back from Vietnam in his duffle bag in pieces when he figured out that he couldn't put it back together he took it to the pawn shop. The pawn shop owner didn't know what he had and told us it was a Japanese paratrooper rifle. He didn't know how to put it together either. So he sold it to my buddy for $25.00. My buddy and I looked at the pile of parts and then started putting it together. It turned out to be a Chicom SKS complete with spike bayonet in excellent condition. It came with three 10 stripper clips of 7.62x39 ammunition. So my buddy and I took it out to the foothills of San Marcos and each fired 10 rounds. We took it to the next gun show in LA and my buddy sold it for $150.00 and I sold a discharged LAW launcher tube for $75.00. Today I have 3 SKS's in my accumulation a Russian, a Chicom and a Yugo. As you say they aren't the best rifles on the market and none of them would be the first rifle I would grab out of the vault when the balloon slips the string. But they are in my opinion important pieces of firearms history.

    It's all up to preference but honestly for what it is, the SKS is quite an effective rifle so you definitely get your bang for you buck when you buy one. Very accurate, grip feels nice against your shoulder, reliable, and not difficult to disassemble. You also get that nice feeling of an older rifle if you're into that. Can easily hit a target at 100 yards with iron sights. If you want something more combat effective, there's plenty of other guns more suited for that but I would pick this rifle over a lot of others anyday.

    I can say I was bubba for all of 6 months. I did the folding stock and "detachable" magazine and scope thing. Scope broke, stock was flimsy and the magazines never worked. Went from simple and functional to hot jam-o-matic shit. I went back to the stock setup and the rifle performed as it should. Also my first experience with garand thumb is with the SKS. I learned that single loading these can come with that risk.

    While we don't get why you need them people who are centrist or left-leaning cannot ban or restrict guns past requiring a license. People who are right leaning would get the guns that the already had because they haven't had them taken away yet, and attempt to overthrow the government. Honestly some of us are a little bit afraid if the right. Basically, while I think guns should be restricted, it would be too hard for us because, well, people have guns.
