Russian SKS / Re: ГМ 583 Magazine
« Last post by jstin2 on April 07, 2024, 03:34:29 PM »
I was hoping to get an opinion from other members before I gave mine. I think that after collar was pressed on, that the machinist neglected to cut out the slot. And in later years they realized that the slot was not needed and that process was then eliminated. Oops, I changed my opinion. I just now blew up the picture and it looks like the machinist started his cut and for some reason stopped.

Russian SKS / ГМ 583 Magazine
« Last post by jstin2 on April 05, 2024, 07:33:18 PM »
I recently purchased a 1949 SKS. From equal cleaning rod nubs and no rivet on the magazine, it shows that it is an early build. But I found one thing odd about this rifle, the magazine. The first picture in album shows what it should look like. The magazine was frankenpinned in an odd way that destroyed part on the serial number. It was then coated. I removed the crap and blued.

Dang PAX, you have it BAD!

You'd best talk to GM at the next addicts anonymous session and see if he can give you some pointers for living alongside the addiction.

I need a sponsor  ::) , PAX

Militaria / SKS crate schematics (drawn by an amateur)
« Last post by theSKSguy45 on April 02, 2024, 12:35:17 PM »
Someone asked me for measurements on my crate for a project they wanted to do so I figured I’d post it here too. Undoubtably I’ve forgotten something so if anyone needs more info let me know and I’ll update this

All measurements are in imperial (inches)
The boards are 1 inch thick unless specified otherwise.

Will do upon inspection but I hope she's not an alien implant. I was so excited to finally get a reply back from the seller after 2 days, and not being Russian savvy, I forgot to ask about the mag. He said it's all matching numbers with the rear site is EPd. PAX

Nice one PAX!  I wonder if it could be a Canadian border hopper?  Look over the magazine carefully for weld remnants where the block would have been when you get her in.   thumb1
