These tests are not scientific at all. This video was made strictly for fun. Both of these are great and very fun to shoot. Thank you for watching!

You gotta admit. The SKS slide sounds.. *Chef kiss* beoootiful

Depends on what you need them for in my opinion. The SKS wasn't as mass produced as the AK or AKM. I believe the quality is higher all around, as no one in the Gun Industry has tried to duplicate it as they the AK. The longer barrel, gives the SKS an advantage for the hunter , Survivalist or Ranch gun. Finally, the internal magazine is a major plus for us that know how heavey humping magazines. I have a 20 round magazine ( Red Star) in my SKS and that is plenty for me. The shorter magazine also gives the SKS and advantage in the ability to get as close to Mother Earth when the lead starts flying. However, it is still capable of delivering fire from a prone position. I own ( 3 ) AK's an ( 1 ) SKS. I personally would keep the SKS if I had to choose only one. Semper Fi

The Sks is better than the ak at muzzle velocity and effective range. But the ak has higher fire rate, shorter length and lighter weight than the sks. Both are good rifles. I really love them.

Those not-so-serious comparisons are very nice!

The sks is basically the M14 of the eastern world. A great rifle that was adopted to fight another war like WWII, but was immediately replaced with a superior rifle that could hold more ammo and could be fired accurately on full auto. Redendered obsolete due to the changes of warfare post WWII.

I love both, AK got faster reloads and fewer in between but the SKS is still and always will be an amazing rifle

Not a word and the video tops like 90% of the other comparison videos. Well done.

I have SKS at home, it’s awesome. We have it for as long as I can remember, kind of antique…. Many buyers want to buy it but my dad is fond of it…. I love that rifle.

Excellent video! Both Rifles have their good points. The SKS is probably a better over all utility Rifle.

To me both platforms perform pretty much the same. The main difference between the two is AK has a higher rate of fire given it is magazine fed while the SKS has greater accuracy and range given it has a longer barrel than a AK. SKS also has a lower profile which is handy when firing from a prone position where as the AKs magazine can be an issue while firing prone.

I own an SKS and it's my favorite of the few weapons I own.

Theese weapons were suposed to serve alongside eachother and coexist in an infantry squad but mr kalashnikov got carried away and made a gun that was just too good and fulfilled both roles of itself and of the sks

Way closer in performance than I expected. Thanks for posting this!

I wish I owned an SKS, I sadly am to young to have picked one up when they where cheap. But they are very pretty and take one of my favorite calibers

Which one is better? It depends on what you need them for. SKS is much more accurate and more powerful thanks to its longer barrel, but AK-47 is much tougher, has a 3x larger ammo capacity and do not forget it is an automatic rifle.

То что карабин точнее и пробивнее автомата и без теста понятно😉

you are a good youtuber

現今世代的遊戲與電影 自動步槍 出現得太過平凡 我發現 SKS步槍 那種有些相識 又有著很大的不同 這種感覺與狀態 使這款步槍 無比的迷人

It depends on intended purpose. IMHO the AK-47 is the best battlefield rifle ever built, but I'm not in the military anymore. I wish the bolt stayed open when it was empty. As far as a general purpose all around rifle the SKS is hard to beat. If you learn how to use stripper clips you can reload quicker than the person in the video did. If you need more than 10-15 rounds to handle the situation you're in either you are in over your head, or you can't shoot. Either way you're screwed.

7:00 The 5 2-liter coke bottles that are filled look extremely nervous 🤣🤣🤣

absolute bone chilling, spine tingling, genre redefining, slow burn gemerald of a review

I like the SKS, mainly as it is compact and versatile; The internal magazine means no det mags to lose nor be damaged/lost. The SKS can also be loaded singly and can be loaded through the top OR the bottom of the magazine. Oh...in the bottle test, you showed 6 bottles damaged by the AK, but you had the bottles set up like bowling pins, so there weren't 6 bottles all in a row. Did the bullet deflect?

AK - the presence of automatic fire and 30 shots without reloading.SКS - only single fire and 10 shots without reloading.

The AK is more for crowd control or medium-range combat, while the SKS is more for longer ranges, as a DMR. Both are good in their own ways. Would love to have both, not gonna lie.

Better accuracv and more punch with the SKS! Good Video!!!

If I'm being honest...I just like the stripper clips

Funny comparison. Hello to the author, make videos more often.

I have used both with detachable magazines, long and short barrel variations. Only a knats ass difference between them. It all comes down to preference. Many ak47 don't have last round bolt hold open.

There’s something about the way the AK looks that I absolutely love. It’s way more menacing looking than an AR in my opinion. I’ve had both and preferred my AK.

Both are outstanding rifles.

Damn. For the same weight the sks is fully loaded with ammo.

Saludos desde la República Dominicana excelente vídeo

Oh lovely. Damn good fun

Sks is best and winn...from algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿

You should make more of this videos

Nice and informative video

In Canada, there is only SKS, no AK, and only semi-automatic, no fully automatic. Two weeks ago, I went hunting for the first time. The guide suggested that I use a 30-06s with scope. Although I have 5 of them, including 2 Sako 85 Bavarian, I took a Chinese SKS without scope and caught a 200 Ib male black bear at 100 feet with one 7.62x39 SP round. I chose the SKS because it is cheap, reliable, and semi auto. Another advantage I found during this hunt is that the gunshot is not that loud, so don't have to wear earplugs or hearing protection while in the woods.

Have both love them each in there own way

very nice sound effects 😀

I think the sks is the winner. Hands down

SKS vs. AK... Actually, due to both munitions are use the same 7.62×39 M43 intermediate rounds the range and wound damage are same. But the difference are accuracy, fire stability, and close quarter follow-up shots.

I have both rifles and i love both the SKS i call the poor man's garand :)

To be honest review I think both of these weapons are magnificent and each one to fill their own special role on the battlefield

Who can give the accurate details of that ak in the video and which country made it ...i liked it ...itis very nice

For me, it's the best of both.

Its a fun side with soda but penetration test can be also repeated with bricks, layers of wood etc. These are good guns, never getting old.

I really love the both Soviet rifles

SKS no doubt. Another factor that gives it the "edge" , is that it skirts around "laws & policies" that Dummycrats try to implement. I bought a Russian SKS back in the day (96) and still love it. Excellent vid. 👊🏽🎯

Design wise and my personal favorite weapon in video games I think the AK wins. I mean I don't think there's anything more satisfying than pulling the bolt back to chamber around in the AK-47 (Besides maybe the m1 Garands clip ejection noise)

This is like the '03 Springfield vs M1.

I wouldn't compare, both are lethal on good expert's hands

Оба красавцы! Но СКС, просто шедевр! Цвет дерева классный!👍

Why not some absurd Apple vs Orange comparisons? Mosin-Nagant 91/30 vs MP-40, or Luger vs M-1 Garand, for example.

I have used both sks and akm sks is more accurate, powerful and hits longer targets because of it's longer barrel But akm is full auto, shorter and optional

I got them both,and I love them :-)

Both are good. One is good in close range and other one is good in medium range .

I want to see you shoot the MG34 MG42 gun

...I went for the one that has mostly machined parts and a screwed-in barrel...

I love the paratrooper SKS

Do m1903 Springfield vs Mosin

Basically the same effect, the same caliber, although the SKS shoots more accurately than the AK47, but I would definitely choose the AK47-AKM-AK74-AK12 if I had to choose between the two weapons The SKS is now highly valued in the USA, probably because of its cheap price and high firepower, and as I look at it, it is a very backward old construction (it is already visible on the reloading system and on the entire wooden body), it only has a relatively large caliber and shoots more accurately. like the AK47 Actually, the AEK971 should have been released to the Russians in a new design, or else the multicaliber system and external design of the AK12 turned out to be very good, but the 900 rpm is missing from the AK12 in my opinion In a semi-automatic rifle, the Ruger Mini Tactical Model 5888 seems like a good construction to me, although I would definitely buy an automatic military carbine for myself, whatever the cost.

You can make that sks even better

To check for accuracy, you should shoot from a bench. The inaccuracy could be due to the shooter. Also, the AK bolt often times don't lock open after the last round , SKS won't have that problem.

That Ak 47 has no muzzle break

does the sks's weight includes the bayonet?

If they won't let you have the Ak legally, you can resort to using your effective SKS.

Which model of ak this is and country of manufacture?

Good video🤩

Ak good and sks it's so too good. 👍

Nice !!!

SKSって目方が3kgないと思ってたのですが、地味に重たいのですね('ω') あと、射手さん、射撃上手ですね。あっしだったら初弾以外は全て右上に流れる 自信があります('ω')

Sks is for like an elite marksman its better for a specific target i think the ak is just a full auto gun its for close and mid combat and fits well

The table took one for the team xD SKS is the winner :)

I'm glad I have both....

Nice!!!!

Is it possible to compare SCS and AK?

If you convert sks like a serial military automatic rifle, I wonder how durable the firearm is. (Suppose you use military bullets.)

The SKS kinda looks like an AK, to the extent that the gas system and barrel look to be that from an AK, slapped on to a magazine-fed Mosin Nagant. Crazy.

I’m not gonna be that guy and claim that “one rifle is better than the other” but I will explain *why* the SKS was replaced by the AK47. The reason ‘why’ is because they discovered 2nd hand about the effectiveness of a shorter rifle with an intermediate cartridge and so, the SKS was born. The SKS wasn’t full auto but it was accurate and it was able to lay down a more effective volume of fire because of the lowered recoil, the SKS is almost considered a carbine at that point (in my opinion), which was already a firearm that has been proven to be affective during ww2. When the AK47 came along, it beat every prototype during their test trials and it was sure a hell better than the SKS because it was literally meant to replace it. The Russians knew that battles were going to start getting closer because they were getting their asses pounded by the Germans with that tactic, what mattered most was a higher volume of fire for most troops so that they can push closer to their enemy by riddling more bullets. the Russians developed what was, -the perfect assault rifle of the time. The SKS -as well as the AK, will always be nothing more than a chapter in the firearms technology and knowledge. The AK47 isn’t the perfect assault rifle either, which is why it was replaced later on by another Kalashnikov model. However, you can’t always win and other countries turned out to make better rifles like the M16/AR15. And if you think I’m biased, I’m not. *I own all three.* (not the full auto models, but you get it).

I was really surprised the SKS weighs the same, you'd think having 20 less bullets and a tiny internal magazine would make it much lighter

Ill take both thank you very much hahaha. But seriously if shit was really was hitring the fan id want my sks. Its truly is the ultimate survival.tool and i choose ot over my ar 15 and ak 47

SKS, If you want to arm as many people as possible without having to worry about costs and ammunition shortages due to spray n pray

Darn, all you needed to do next was a bayonet charge. ^_^

Какой дурак утвердил вариант АК-47 только со стволом одной длины,уже ни кто ни когда не узнает.Сделали бы АК-47 с 2 вариантами стволов,один из которых ствол от СКС,так не было той самой "болячки"АК,которая преследует этот самый АК с момента создания по сей день-отвратительной баллистики 415 ствола,что сказывается при стрельбе на дистанции выше 250 м.

I have an sks and it is very accurate. Even with iron sights i can hit steel at 100 yards.

It still shoots the same Round, therefore, practically no difference really in power

I'll say Dead Heat! 👍

sks is one of my favorite guns

Vietnamese combo

❤❤❤❤

SKS👍

Венгерский SA85M и китайский Norinco Type 56=))

The accuracy is completely subjective.

Both rifles are extremely robust strong rifles, no matter what anyone says, they're good rifles.

Wwowww

thank you

5 k 👍🏻😌

SKS semi automatic easy to relode its barrel is long its range is more,while AK is fully automatic protable easy to carry, choise is yours both are fantastic.

Bought my SKS at a flea market in the 90s for $149 with some stripper clips in two boxes of ammo. AK, never been able to do that. That being said I consider the AK to be far superior. At least in the looks and capacity department.
