I can hit up to 150m with scope but 100m is optimal on iron sights
For the SKS?
On what gun? You can shoot much further than 100 on irons
The SKS on the latter
The range goes up to 200m I believe
7.62Soviet is a 300m round, you can do further, but it is minute of man at 300m for most
The outdoor range near me(2 hour drive sadly) is 100m but they're building a 600m range and that should be ready in the spring
I have an indoor range 30 mins away that goes up to 100m but they cost more, especially if you don't have a membership
When i start my job i'll probably get a membership for them, i want to buy a CMP M1 garand too
I tried using a smaller rifle with a scope and I was wobbling too much to aim to the furthest target
I was using the SKS and AR-15 mostly
SKS is fun, fuck import bans
Canadians get them for $200-300 cad
Yeah that is minute of man. If I may, grab a 1903A4 if you can find a cheep one. They are 500m rifles
I think my friend paid like $600
Damn he overpaid then unless it was never fired
You can buy a russian one in good condition for that
It's something that was used in the 1980s according to him and not something milled in the 2000s
It was covered in that gunk when he got it
Yugo SKSes are the most recently manufactured ones out of the 3 most popular sks types(russian, chinese, yugo)
Probably covered in cosmoline for long term storage
Yep, cosmoline
Cosmoline. Did he bake it off?
He cleaned it all off
Stripped it and got it all out of the interior, reoiled the necessary components
Knew a FFL back in the day that did a lot of comblock surplus, had an electric kitchen oven right in the shop to heat up the Cosmoline so he could get it off for the floor samples.
If memory serves, the gun date was around right before Yugoslavia dissolved
So late 80's early 90's
Yeah
Absolute piece of junk of a gun
I need to build a E-11
Lol some genius in my area is trying to sell their "tactical" chinese sks for $600
Most stens are parts kits man
Hastily made, yeah
And in the photo, that is the 100m, the background is the 200m
Question, should I build a STEN kit into a Storm Trooper E-11 or a Clone Trooper carbine?
I for sure can hit the 100 but 200 I don't know, maybe
What's the difference in the two
One has the Holy Trilogy feel and the other has Revenge of the Sith feel to it.
