I love how easily everything just comes right out on his SKS. It must have been taken apart and cleaned many times. My firing pin retainer was IN THERE

Mine is a Norinco from 92 if I read the serial right, looks like it had never been fired but once. It wouldn't feed, once I carefully fixed that it's like s new rifle. The face of the chamber was never finished to allow smooth, reliable feeding. Someone else gave up, but I have a dremel and a steady hand. Honestly, I had to polish the feed ramp on a brand new Smith & Wesson that would hang up occasionally I think Norinco rushed mine out the door pre-ban in the 90's. At least they left me enough steel to carve out a working rifle, it's beautiful. Thanks for the video, I'm still getting familiar with it.

I have a question from Brownells' I own a SKS, standard Russian 10 round capacity, fires great, fairly accurate...I like it. But I quite accidently discovered when I went to remove it from the gun safe, I sort of bobbled it a bit and it dropped about 3 inches and the rifle tapped the ground on the way out and it self chambered a round and was ready to shoot. Handling the rifle in a normal fashion has never caused a round to just load by itself. But eventually I discovered that in a stress situation where I want the rifle ready to fire before I even bring it up to sight, is I simply grab it from the case, and as soon as clear the case, I quickly tap the butt of the rifle on the floor and it loads and I bring it up and I take it off safety and sight. I am wondering if you can duplicate this with your on SKS stock and confirm if this is just a happenstance thing or my rifle is possible a problem and I should take it to a gunsmith.

After soaking the bolt in Kroil, I usually place the bolt on a nylon bench block and center the retaining pin over one of the holes in the bench block and give it a good tap with a punch and hammer. The retaining pin should pop out.

Im having problems disassembling my SKS. The person in the video is able to disassemble the SKS with ease and without using tools much, but for me I have to use tools to even move the take down lever. Is there something I can do so that it is possible to disassemble my SKS as easily as the guy here or at least easier?

The most likely cause is carbon fouling and buildup, which will cause the piston to stay locked in the tube. A good carbon cleaner will help break down the fouling and allow the piston to be removed.

Do not get me wrong, I do love this rifle. But the one thing I don't like about this rifle (as a practical military rifle) is the reliance on a punch for basic field stripping. Not only is the amount of force to remove the trigger assembly downright painful, but a punch is often (but not always) needed in order to swing the takedown levers (gas tube and dust cover) as well.
