Hello from the Mitten
« on: November 01, 2023, 01:57:14 PM »
FNG here from Michigan.  I purchased my first firearm back in 1998 and it was an SKS, still have it to this day.  I'm currently looking for a cast receiver SKS  for the collection.  Attached is a photo of the current collection.

Welcome from another M state, Missouri, LOL.

Nice set of SKSs there.
My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

Welcome to the boards!
Thank you.
My favorite is probably the tapco yugo. It means the most to me.  It has a lot of good memories of a good friend who passed away 22 years ago.  We had identical guns.  It was also the start of the gun collection.
