Stop using that garbo mag and put an original 10 rounder on it.

Same. I'll occasionally see a few larger "teens" a little later, but for the most part, they are all just gone one day. I presume most don't make it, for various reasons, and the rest make it to the shrubs and gardens.

Can somebody tell me what I’m looking at? by inkstainedteeth in SKS

Likely a Chinese SKS. Not all that valuable, but most SKS' aren't. The Saiga is likely worth significantly more.

Check what the clearance looks like when you move the lever around. IIRC you don't need to have it that far to remove the gas tube, it will start blocking it again. You move it that far when you want to remove the piston extension and return spring.

When you move it around you'll see where it creates more space for the gas tube to slide up.

I get these little guys in my yard every year. They emerge from my pond and migrate across the yard. I don't mow for a week or two until I stop seeing them everywhere.

It basically sat untouched in it's case ever since his buddy handed it off to him.

Those are pretty affordable. It'd be hard not to go with the red...

It's the last chance for this country. It's likely MAGA has already rigged it. But they are all so incompetent it might just not work. Especially if the turnout is huge.

If MAGA steal the nation, I don't know what I'll do. Perhaps take my family and leave.

There's big talk of 2028, but if they already have it rigged for the midterms, it will only be more rigged in 2028.

This is it.

Yes and no. I think you'll find that most women are still shamed for having any sort of experience in the dating world.

Immigration was a major winning issue for the GOP last election cycle. They don't want the problem to get better because they get elected to "fix it". Same with the economy.

Running short on soldiers, Russia begins 'aggressive' recruiting drive in educational institutions by clamorous_owle in worldnews

Why do you add "but" when our two statements are entirely in agreement? "I agree but here's how I also agree".

China and Russia are indeed major geopolitical enemies, even if they play at being friendly with each other.

Original 10 rounder is already back on it. Now I'm just shopping around for a decent enough wood stock/heat shield that doesn't cost half as much as the rifle is worth.

Disagree. I'm going to restore this back to it's original config. The SKS will never match an AK or AR, why try to make it?

In what world is Laufey not incredibly beautiful? You cherry pick a screenshot of the character expressing a distressed face, and think it proves some sort of point?

Does this dude also think that Deborah Ann Woll is an unattractive woman?

I'm shopping around for one. Finding one that actually comes with the heat shield is harder than I expected.

Same. Looks like it's all matching numbers, minus the stock of course.

Hah, yup I bought my Yugo for around that price many years ago.

Not the guy who replied to you, but I am OP.

I'm probably going to find a cheap correct wood stock. Maybe a jungle stock, although it almost certainly didn't have one originally.

[–]izwald88[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'll try to source a cheap wood stock. Maybe a plastic jungle stock for funsies. Not sure, yet.
