Greetings!  Thought I'd post a pic of my new sks.  When I first bought it, I didn't know anything about these rifles.  I was in a gun shop just looking around.  There was two older wood stock sks's (Chinese) and this sks-m with a plastic stock.  A friend of mine was using an sks while hog hunting recently and I thought it was pretty cool.  I had been looking for a good hog hunting rifle, and the gentlemen at the gun shop pointed at the the sks-m and said "that's a hog killer right there".  It made since to me.  Cheap ammo, short barrel, 30 round mag, light and easy to carry while spot and stalking in the brush.  I took to the range to sight it in, the gunsmith told me it's a paratrooper.  Are all sks-m paratroopers because of shorter barrel? Thanks for any help. Cheers🍻
