Gun nuts hate them but returning soldiers swear by them. That should say it all

I love the sks it's really accurate I paid $200 and got 1500 rounds of 7.62 x 39 for 300. Great gun

I've had an SKS almost 30 years and have used it hunting in all kinds of weather, it never failed to do the job asked of it.

Probably only had to replace the "furniture" (wooden stock). I'm pretty sure the wood wouldn't last too long submerged in lake or river water.

So he lost his guns in a boating accident?

I don't argue with you My thoughts are practicality and simplicity. And not wasting money on rifles that shoot the same round. The AK and AR platforms are solid and great to own. AR can be teched out 12 ways from last Monday. My uncle has 3k invested in 6.5 creedmoor ar style rifle

I am a fairly new shooter. The first riflery class I took was a Project Appleseed class. That is exactly how they teach people to shoot, especially when he was using the sling with the SKS. I don't have a military or LEO background so that was quickest, most affordable way to get some rifle training. But it's basically pre-WWI training.

@@spitfireaace I was planning on getting one and now it's banned.

Joshua Susice the sks is a good multipurpose rifle so I do recommend it

Its pretty much the same thing as a mini 30, except cheaper and more common. I would say prob better because of the price point, can put a tactical stock and 30 round mags on it. Also look into the sks that take ak mags, they exist.

I have seen multiple SKS have the bolt face break. They are a Hyundai of guns. Dont risk your life on ones reliability.

@ADMIN um, buy it cheep, drive it till it dies and send it to the crushers. Through away car-- like the sks. There is a reason we used to buy them new for 99.00 (and 50 year olds remember buyng them new for 69.00 in shot gun news).

The SKS is cheap commie gun. I have a Russian one. It never jammed, never malfunctioned. Ever. Even with shitty Chinese surplus ammo. Good up to 200 yards, but after that pretty much useless. It's a conscript gun fodder cheap carbine, but it works. It goes boom when you pull the trigger. Not very accurate. Too many parts though. For the price, that's a lot of gun for your money.

They will definitely get the job done without having to butcher them

What about the durability of the machined parts of the SKS vs the stamped steel and "plastic" or the others.... I would rather have a bit heavy rifle that would last since...well just shortly after WWII, than some of the newer weapons that though lightweight might be not as robust. Thoughts? Even that fact that you "had" to throw in the SKS is a testament to its longevity and its durability. Should of also done a field strip comparison. Most SKS guys can break theirs down....if trying...in well under a minute....clean and reassemble...in another "minute". I really dont know what it takes to field strip and clean the other three...(might nice for a nice follow up video to this one)....;) Thanks for the comparison, none the less...

VERY well put. The SK is a very good weapon and has been around for years and years. SKS is a great gun!

The Mini-14 is never a good choice if other options are available.

@@trevnico It will take the most abuse while still working.

@Samsung McKone That had to be the shooter. Ballistics gives the AR and Mini about twice the range of the AK SKS round.

@Samsung McKone Because that's what standard ballistic charts and expert reviews say. Just look it up. The 5.56X45 has much higher muzzle velocity than a 7.62X39 cartridge. This has always been common knowledge. That's the only reason I brought it up.

Ak is shit it jams ever 4 to 5 shells !

Idk man farmers with the sks defeated marines with the AR platform

I had the same experience with my ex-wife.

Same. Fell in love with it when i fired my first round thru it. Pretty much married mine and sleep with it next to my side every night.

Agreed

I take it it is the only weapon you ever owned that shit is put together with scrap. I take you never fired an AR 15 chambered in .458 SOCOM now that is fun just makes goosebumps run up my spin. 325 grain bullets! This guy has nothing but junk including the off the shelf assembly line AR in standard .223/5.56 maybe unless it is a 223 wylde if not don’t use 5.56.

Out of the 3 guns you owned the sks was the best..... What were the other pieces of crap. (So I know not to buy one).

When I servered compulsory military service in Poland (they used to take all boys to army), we took part in military exercises and it rained for days.

@@lweatherford9225 I've never seen any proof that the sks is more accurate. If you know of any tests that show this I'd be interested to see them. Idk about you but I always carry extra mags.

Ramsey Hildebrand that's Wat I said I just bought one

Wait are you complaining about cleaning your weapon BEFORE you fire it?

gene stephens which one you like best?

I think in a survival situation .223/5.56 would be easier to come across in the US. Obviously a shotgun with chamber inserts would allow you to scrounge whatever but would have a terrible rate of fire.

I guess it depends on what you are surviving. The Chinese/Russian invasion will leave plenty of 7.62x39 to use.

Dylan Kerr No they wouldn't, the Chinese use 5.8x42mm and the Russians use 5.45x39mm.

Also you can load loose ammo after the 9th round through the. magazine well just put them in side to side lock magazine in place. Just remember put safety on you have live round chambered. Can last as long you have ammo. The others you have to reload magazines unless you have a ton of magazines or a few 4o,6o,75,or 100 rounders. Just remember you have to carry all that extra weight. This is another way if they're not on stripper clip. This is what the old timers in the backwoods do.

Uncle Swag / DEADdem anywhere in the world: anything but an armalite style rifle

Come to the UK they won't even let u own an air rifle shooting over 12 ft pounds.....I love guns always have us brits I feel have a plumb up there arse n bee in bonnet about all firearms yet in criminality its illegal guns being accessed n used so why fkin penilise normal law abiding and gun loving citizens??? I believe in the 2 nd amendment but for the UK lol it don't exist but in my mind it does lol

dal the entire reason Americans even have guns is because of the British. The British actually not only allowed the American Colonies to have guns but thought it was Necessary. By letting the Americans have guns, that meant the British empire didn’t have to spend as much money having thousands of British soldiers defending the Americans from the natives and other threats.

dal the 280 Endfield / 280 British also should have been NATO’s universal caliber not the 7.62x51 or 308 Winchester. The 280 British had greater range than the 7.62x39 and greater knock down. It was also very easy to control on Fully-Automatic, however the 308 wasn’t.

I've have or had every gun in this video and the most reliable shooting gun is the SKS had a mini 14 jammed all the time got rid of it and will never own another. But I'm fixin to get me another SKS and I want a paratrooper SKS. I like the 10 round clips there attached so they don't come out and you lose them

Out of all these rifles, I decided to get one sold to me as a Russian SKS, but it turned out to be a Chinese military model from 1958. It's my first non-.22 LR rifle and a ton of fun at the range. My only real gripe about mine is the previous owner did shoddy work on it. They replaced the wood stock with a broken folding stock that's fading, left the wood on the gas tube, installed a scope mount with mismatched screws, and gave it a rusty 30 round metal magazine that fits poorly. So I'm changing their work for my own stuff. Got a collapsible stock and new 20 round magazines, and I'll give it a new scope mount, sling, and red dot optic. Thankfully no cosmoline in this one, but it was filthy when I stripped it to see the condition of the inside. Guess this is what you get for buying a cheap one at a gun show.

I haven't checked Remington's 7.62x39, but you should check to make sure they're using hard primers like the Eastern Europeans do. All my Russian made ammo is Berdan primed. We tend to use softer primers and that may increase the risk of a slam fire (though probably not a runaway slam fire, which is the worst case scenario).

@@manlyadvice1789 good advice

I reload for my SKS , Flawless

I hear your country are getting our Mexicans, glad to hear....thanks

You make my brain hurt.

Like I said the SKS has some drawbacks but if they are that cheap then they are totally worth it

There are some AK type weapons that work mostly the same except some small differences and are (non)restricted depending on which one you get

If you get an SKS, I suggest a TAPCO Stock, makes a world of difference and you can still keep the factory 10 round stripper loaded mag with the TAPCO Stock. I removed the 10 round factory set up and I installed a TAPCO 20 round removable magazine and a steel 30 shot magazine. I load the 20 round mag with 20 rounds and when those 20 rounds are gone I reload with stripper clips. I have the steel magazine in case the plastic TAPCO magazine wears out. Can't remember how long I've had my SKS been a long while though.

This guy apparently just don't like sks guns he's prob on the AR bandwagon since the cool kids started buying them for talk instead of function

Hail, fellow Canuck. I love my SKS as well. My SVT-40 is nice too.

Canukistan....aVe is everywhere😊

Semi's "generally" require the same licensing as a regular bolt or pump. They are limited to a 5 round capacity (though there are small loopholes to double that amount in certain circumstances). Our laws are a little retarded when it comes to "types" of guns. Its not that they are any more "dangerous" than others we're allowed, its that they scare people (thanks to gun grabbing politicians with the help of a controlled MSM). So, things that are based on an AR platform have further restrictions (even if its a .22) than a regular gun and things like AK's are prohibited because they are the go to gun for terrorism (F*ck me). Interesting enough, the Tavor, CZ858, XCR, M14 and a boatload of others can be had with just the basic license (like the above mentioned bolt action/pump), don't ask me "why". We're not as bad as Commiefornia though or the UK/Australia (or should I say Commonwealth countries). Overall, we're still "allowed" some fun, but, after this Vegas crap, who knows? The gun grabbers are having a field day criminalizing law abiding citizens while doing nothing to combat real crimes. A regular license allows you to throw your gun in the trunk and go shooting where its legal to do so (ranges/private land/crown land). A restricted only allows at gun ranges (all pistols/AR) and prohibited allows you to own (though they don't issue those licenses anymore) and wish you could go shoot them. Those licenses are slowly disappearing as those specific gun owners age and pass on. Then the government confiscates them. Thanks god we've got the government to take care of us and keep our streets safe. What a joke.....

Based on price up there the SKS is a great option

Its like a right of passage. Everyone owns at least one....

I' ve always soaked my sks bolts in clp after firing, never had problem

And when acquiring an SKS, it is wise to disassemble the bolt, remove the firing pin, and clean out the channel. Old cosmoline gumming up the channel is the usual culprit for slam fires. Most people just spray some brakleen but full disassembly always result in cleaner parts.

every guy should have at least two of these - and a ton of ammo

I have 2 as well! A newer Tapco stock and an old Norinco WWII stock

Same dude, I’m looking at more of them, I love the gun.

I was thinking about trading my SKS for an AK but am glad I didn’t.

davidcbrainard well said sir. I agree. The 14 is the cream of the crop.

They are all fun rifles to shoot depending on your needs/budget

I agree! More reliable with open bolt and Piston driven Garand action and less finicky! It'll shoot 2 in to 2 1/2 in groups with Tula or Match Grade 4 times as long between cleanings compared to an AR IF NEEDED!!!

Agree .. in a multi-intruder home assault would reach for the Mini-14 or the AK-47 .. just trust them both the most after lots of firing

Samsung McKone you are very correct about that .. I live on several acres in a rural area but there are homes within visual distance.. I would never want to harm an innocent.. as a matter of fact my home shotgun is a Mossberg 590 .. great weapon .. maybe I need to put the Mini 14 away and bring out the Mossberg

1. I would love to have the budget to do what you are suggesting 2. I didn't mention the mini 30, I don't feel it's as popular as these rifles 3. I gave an honest take on all the rifles, they are all decent, pick the one you like that meets your criteria

The Patriot Communicator Thanks to us ex yugoslavian people (im croatian) you are able to have a lot of fun with this gun were you dont have to take care about anything. :)

Correct I shoot cheep surplus ammo for plinking and it's flawless shoots anything .

A decent AK can be every bit as accurate as an SKS and with ammo it likes just as accurate as many ARs.

They make better firing pins and spring for the Mini30 for steel cased from what I have read... I have no experience with them.

I agree I have 2 one Russian and one Chinese . Russian is better made but both work well .

Uh, yeah, about that.

Yes mini all the way. I grew up with dads SKS he brought back from Vietnam and it was tight nice gun but only strip fed ( no mags). I sold my AR and now have two minis ( 556 & 300 blackout) . But I was biased already as my m1 carbine is my favorite auto rifle and minis are very similar to m1 even though I know modeled after m14 etc.

Same here. Paid for ar 15 . But traded and paid a little more for the mini 14. Best decision I made as a first time gun owner . Sks also is my favorite

Semiautomatic ak's and ar's are used as service weapons, especially, ar's.

Actually they are used as service weapons. Aks are used in foreign countries around the world and the ars are service weapons for the us military. National guard uses them but main corps use the auto m16s. The mini m14 was modeled after the m1 grand which was used in the following world wars. The sks was used too.

Red Scorpion 6 Noice

Ed Stallion WELL SAID SIR! 👍👏🤝 I been trying to tell em that the mini is a tight machined beast. Very accurate. Even the 180- serial number models are very accurate with the Accu-strut. Even gets thru string fire with the hot barrel no problem. I'm looking for an SKS too. They seem to be pretty bad ass weapons with extraordinary longevity. ✌️

I think the AR can be more accurate due to the lack of OpRod and better bolt lockup but I'm not shooting matches nor do I have a match AR

The AR has a lot less reciprocating components, lot less mass moving along the barrel, can be free floated. Rugers pretty shitty and a lot of critical components have to be factory fitted. Spare AR barrel's are as close to self headspacing as you can get. Bolts can be dropped in for the most part unline any of the other listed rifles. Barrels are no problem to install without power tools. The AR is way more accurate, and equal if just a basic build. I don't know what sort of drug you're on, but the mini 14 is at the best equal for almost twice the price.

@Samsung McKone costlier though

Always a good option

They're not Pokemon

I'm working on that myself

Brand new PSA AR15 as of today is $330 before transfer fee (129 lower + 199 upper)...so...Yeah. Used Yugo SKS same price or just a little more.

I got fiddy...where I go to buy this unicorn?

Here in America, I bought my S&W M&P 15 for 515$ and my Norinco SKS was 600$ they are hard to find here

@Nikola Poiukov KilletKod is right about the price. if you piece the psa together it would cost about 4 to 500 depending on which upper or lowr you buy. I got my psa premium m4 style ar15 for around 470, 8-900 is waaay too much for a psa. That is as much as my spikes and bcm.

They actually made a .308 version called the XGI in the 1980s that they never released. Not sure if it was an accuracy or a reliability problem but they must have had something that wasn't easy to work around with the design.

Gabe Musashi ive been wishing they would make a 357 version of the Mini or M1 Carbine forever now. People really underestimate how nasty the 357 gets out of a longer barrel and while lever actions are fun i think a good semi-auto carbine would be one of the most practical ranch/scout type guns you could buy

Evan B m1 carbine and 357 mirror each other almost exactly out of a 16"bbl and that's really the peak for barrel length for the two

you can buy a real Garand today for $730 at CMP...Mini 14 cost more than that already

A custom rifle with custom clips that is cheaper, huh? Yeah, that aint gonna happen...

I live in California too. I would get an AR as well if I didn’t have to choose between a fin or a fixed mag. I might have to go with that mini 14 or 30. God Bless and stay safe!

Not a bad price for SKS mags

Alan Brown Cabellas sells 30 & 40 rd mags for 20 & 24 bucks and they work great.

Alan Brown , the problem with the high capacity mags on the SKS, is they get in the way, you have to hold the gun sideways shooting prone, or get a short drum magazine.

I am as well guys! Love this channel! My problem is that I want a match grade setup for around the $500 to $700 mark! I'm in love with the mini 14 but also know you can get an AR just as accurate for the same money "ish" . I just had back surgery for a broken vertebrae and ruptured disc that was pressing against my heart. I'm wanting a .223 that's as accurate and reliable and as my "K10/22 with a 22" floating barrel" that's a semi automatic for a truck gun/ ranch / 4 wheeler gun. I'm 36 and been off for 10 months and very short on cash and doctors said no excessive recoil for a couple years. So thinking about selling a couple big rifles to buy me a .223 but if I go with an AR I have no idea what brand or where to start? As far as the Mini 14, I have a couple Ruger 10/22's and if it's anything like those I will absolutely love it! Just need a bit of guidance so I can keep shooting until I heal up!
