My SKS is fine. And it’s real wood so it doesn’t look so “scary”. :)

Remember when you could buy 5 Russkie SKS's for $450 back in 90's. In Alaska everybody bought 5. The Indians bought even more and started hunting with them; so there was never a shortage of ammo; all the Indians had cases of 308. That did more to bring about acceptance of semi auto hunting guns; almost replaced the ole 30-30 as traditional Indian potlatch gift.

My own family members have killed grizzly bear and moose with 308s, where you hit them. One of the Indians down ft Yukon killed a sow polar bear with a 556 bout 15 years back.

Put a MS2 sling on them and everybody hunts off snowmachine; subsistence of course.
