    It's not that they are bad, it's just that with a front sight tool, you can quickly adjust both elevation and windage to make sure you are sighted in. Here is one: Only around $4-5.

    Your Russian SKS is gorgeous. I have a wood stock in my garage. If you are anywhere near York or Lancaster county, hit me up if you want it for cheap. (around $20)

    Ohh, I generally don't shoot beyond 150 yards myself, I'll buy a sight tool just to complete the set though, anything else I should get to go along with it just to be on the safe side?

    I highly recommend not going with any of the SKS scope mounts. The only truly reliable ones are the ones that require drilling and tapping. Your gun is way too nice for that.

    Haha, true, it is a very nice gun and I don't want to decrease the value of it by that much.
    I would really love to get my hands on a French MAS49/56 with a scope though, I always thought that they were such a beautiful gun even though they're massive and bulky.

    the sks has earned a respect from me that can never be broken. over the years i've had so many and not one has ever given me a problem and that SKS you have is very SEXY!!! you'll find that the russian have a mystique about them that can not be explained. If i wasn't already set up for an AR purchase a ruskie sks just like yours would be on its way to me.

    Also. something to ponder. when you over hear people talking about how "cheap" the SKS is..... just think how much that exact rifle would cost if it was USA made. what $500, 6-$700? maybe more being that the builder couldn't make a dime from broken sks' i mean maybe 1 out of 15,000 sks' breaks maybe and all parts are interchangable so there are no "special order fees" you can't lose with an sks. i have even heard of tops scoring shooters in Appleseed using the SKS as their rifles of choice.
