SKS trapdoor issue

(1/2) > >>

combloc:
Having some issues finding a trapdoor that will fit on my stock. The screw hole doesn't line up with the door, and there isn't enough room for it to fit between the buttplate and the stock. The hole on the stock is too narrow for the door to fit even if I could screw it in properly. Is there a specific type of door I have to buy?

Rifle is a 50s norinco for reference

Greatguns:
Wondering if that is for an AK instead of an SKS. Looks like you have another SKS there, can you remove the trapdoor from the other one to compare?

Also, I have an extra trapdoor setup that would blend with that plate I think if you end up needing it.

This is where I got it, https://www.sarcoinc.com/sks-buttplate-trapdoor-assembly-new/

and that's the same sks in the background haha I only have one :( I would much rather try to get something that works with the plate that I have but if I end up needing one I will shoot you a message for sure

This is what I have, let me know if you can use any of it then we can go from there.

Sarco lists it as "new" so it may be a recently made part, most likely sourced from a Chinese sweatshop given the low price. In that case, "minor fitting required" may be the missing parenthetical statement I'm sure they meant to add  ;) Trim the edges with a Dremel until it fits or get an original part.

P.S. Norinco didn't exist until 1980, so if it's stamped "Made by Norinco" then it was actually just "sold by Norinco" to get USD for the PLA.
