Greetings from KC!
« on: April 22, 2018, 06:11:55 PM »
Hello!

I'm new to the SKS, and came here for a little help with some trouble I was having with the trigger group (see https://sks-files.com/index.php?topic=3985.0 for the details and pics of my Yugo). You folks have been nice & helpful, so I think I'll hang around for a while.  😊

I have a fairly diminutive collection of rifles and handguns, primarily comprised of AR-15s I build for myself for hog hunting. Shooting and hunting is always fun, of course, but what I really enjoy is building and maintaining my guns (I don't feel right calling it gunsmithing).

Anyway, this SKS is my first milsurp, and was my first attempt at some restoration work. It's been a fun learning process. TBH, it scratched an itch I didn't even know I had!
