Pic of rifle belonging to 'alleged' wanna-be Trump assassin. Reddit SKS owners group believe it's a bubba'd Yugo.

Wow, that's some great photo-zooming Boris! thumb1

Certainly an SKS. I don't know about it being a Yugo though. I don't see the gas block nor any provisions for grenade sights, though bubba may have taken them off. Odds are it's some Chinese flavor. Hopefully a better image of it surfaces eventually.
