bedding sks
i put a Tapco stock on my chinese SKS. It moves in the stock so I inquired about bedding it & was told that plastic stocks can't be bedded. Anybody else heard of this?

Re: bedding sks
Based solely on your question, I'd say your in over your head with regards to bedding. Why did you decide to go with a aftermarket Tapco stock?

Re: bedding sks
It's Chinese sks and the wood is a sickening orange color. I also thought t tapco wood be lighter, but I think they are the same weight. I did ask a gunsmith about it and was told you can't. I don't think I would try it my self.

Jb weld behind the receiver. scuff up the zytel to get a good bond, and use some wax or soap as a release agent.

I sent an e mail to tapco and they said you can't bed their stock.
