want to buy sks drum

[PROVANTAGE]

No such beast per se AFAIK. You need an SKS that can take unmodified AK mags and then try an AK drum.

probably better off getting an AK and a drum.

The stock around the magwell is too deep so an AK drum won't seat. You have to remove wood from the stock for the drum to fit.

As someone else said, buy an AK and a drum for it. If you already got an SKS practice with stripper clips.

The OP shouldn't buy it.
1. It's expensive for something that may not work worth a shiite.
2. Even if the seller agrees to a return, he called it a "clip".
Enough said.

I like the way you think.

I say use the AK drum. You can carve the wood off the furniture with a Dremel rotary tool and a coarse sanding drum. I did it to my buddies SKS for him. When he bought his SKS, the salesman gave him 2 30rd AK clips and said they'd work if you cut the wood, so we tried it and it worked.

That wiill only work if the SKS was one that came with the ability to take AK mags already. Otherwise there is no place in front to hold the AK mag. The regular SKS fixed magazine has a long front which is hinged so the mag can swing open to dump the ammo when the catch is released.

That is why SKS detachable mags have the "duckbill", to fill up the space and catch on the little bar in front (the name of which eludes me at the moment).

I guess we were lucky then.
