大家好，Greetings from Canada!

Some of you might have seen me on other platforms, but I haven't really introduced myself here.

I've owned 5 SKSes in total but I currently kept 3. An unissued 1979 Factory 296 tickler, a 1952 Tula refurbed by Molot in the 2010s as OP-SKS, and a 1970 Factory 0138 stamped receiver.





Unfortunately due to Canadian regulations, converting to AR magazine is the only legal way to have 10 rounds in a SKS. But hey it vaguely resembles a M14/Mini 30 so there's that - those are banned, too.



One of my interest is the so-called "Forgotten Weapons" of China, as I am fluent in both Mandarin and Cantonese. Most of these obscure firearms are rarely if ever documented in the English world and I'm interested in presenting them.

Also I've been trying to post a long post but it refuses to send. Not sure why.

As for the post, I can only suggest checking your image file sizes and possibly reduce the sizes. I usually try to keep mine under 1mb in size and many times will reduce to under .5mb

Thanks for the tip. They are small images (<100kb each) so I'm not sure why it isn't working.

Welcome from Washington State 

It’s hilarious that Canadian law will only allow you to have the original fixed magazine if it’s pinned to 5 rounds but you can convert it to a removable 10 round magazine capability 

There are certainly interesting forgotten weapons, or not forgotten but seldom seen in the west, that come out of China. An odd recycled and converted rifle I’d like to have is the Arisaka in 7.62x39. The Type 63s that we can’t have in the U.S. is another interesting firearm.

Greetings from NM!  Nice carbines. PM me if you continue having trouble posting.  There are known issues with imgbb links at the moment.

I know right, the regulations are absurd here.

It's even weirder for AR-15 mags - they are pinned to 5 rounds unless you laser engrave "for AR pistol use", then they are pinned to 10. If you mark "for 5 rounds of .458 SOCOM", they are effectively pinned to 15. Whenever there's a new law, people find their way!

Sounds good. I'll try to break up the longer posts to multiple replies and see if that works.

I’m greatly looking forward to your posts. I’ve always been impressed with the information you’ve been able to provide in the past. Better resources and sources would be wonderful to have

If there is any line in your post that points to "imgbb . com" change it to "i.ibb.co" or "ibb.co" and it should post fine.
