Howdy from NC
« on: May 02, 2015, 10:51:32 AM »
Howdy

My medium kid gave me his SKS about two weeks ago (thanks!).  He'd rather just have his AK so I'm the big winner here.

I've wanted an SKS for quite a while so am very happy for the gift.

It's a Chinese model.  Shoots well - I have only put 20 rounds through it so far but I like it!  My small kid and I are going out to the back "yard" and do some shooting later today so I'll have a better feel for it later.  So far, I like it as well as my AR15 (neither is "better" - they're both good - just different).

Grew up just west of Denver, lived in Cheyenne a while and am now north of Durham.  We have a small, independent, motorcycle shop in our garage - Vicious Cycles.

See the pictures below.

It's not the blast that kills you - It's the tumble to the bottom of the 800 foot crater.....

John Galt
When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
Rudyard Kipling  1919
