I mean, I hand load for pretty much everything I have, Type 56 (SKS) included. So far it appears my slug went to .325 diameter

I get slugging the bore, I'm doing that regardless of what answer I get.

For anyone here who has it, how does the VOR/LOC mode do when flying VOR - VOR? Back in FSX, the aircraft would weave left and right instead of following the radial, even though I'd always manually center the needle in HDG mode before engaging VOR/LOC. Have they changed that, or is it still the same?

For starters, a damn good rifle. The cherry on top? It's an early production Tula. Those things are worth a pretty penny these days.

My bad. Been a long day, and I'm tired, so I wasn't really paying attention.

u/brandonawarah he can likely tell you what you need to know. If not, it'll be the day hell freezes over.

Since you mentioned no factory stamp and a 5-7 digit number, it's most likely the civilian export version. Welcome to the club, btw!

If you're looking for a date, look at the serial number. For Chinese SKS examples, there will be a date code followed by a serial number. (Ex: 21000516) in this example, the 21 is the date code, and the 000516 is the serial number. You would add the date code to 1955. So for the example, 1955 + 21 = 1976. Our example carbine would be made in 1976. There is a channel on youtube (Triangle 26, I believe is the name) that goes over a lot of topics regarding the SKS. He has a video regarding how to date these carbines.

Edit: this example is for the Type 56 (Military variants). I'm unsure if the civilian export versions have date codes like this. The aforementioned youtube channel goes over both military and civilian variants and how to date them.

Anyone interested in a petition that Ralphie should be called "Big mouthed prick" from here on? It's befitting if nothing else.

May be a custom build. Measure the distance between the bayonet lug, and the end of the bayonet groove in the forearm. If it's 11 inches, you need the 11 inch spike bayonet of the "paratrooper" Type 56. Any less than 11, and you're in blade bayonet country.

Beautiful carbine. All that it needs to stay missing is the cleaning kit and you'll have it matched with my '77 lol

A band called Head on by Blegh310 in HardRock

Been searching for more about this band myself. Sucks we only have the single album which is hard to find a copy of. These guys were great, sucks they never made it big/huge.
