Greetings again,
Murmeli!
Great to have you join us from the beautiful country of Switzerland! The Russian SKS-45 is an excellent choice for your first SKS. What is the average price for the SKS in Switzerland? Is
7.62x39mm ammunition available and affordable?
I'm sure you've already been reading through the site, but there's lots of good data and information on the Russian SKS-45 in the Russian section.
https://sks-files.com/index.php?board=19.0 No problem on the Google translations, so far. As in any translation program, there's always a bit of "choppy" sentences, etc. But nothing we can't figure out, so far! How's the translation on your end?
Do you have easy access to range facillities to be able to shoot your rifles and other firearms? As our population grows here, it seems harder to find locations to target shoot. We still have quite a bit of open land and state park shooting ranges open to us. It's not as easy as it was 20-30 years ago, though.
Feel free to ask questions, post pictures, and comments!
