Bullput SKS

[RC3]

I been thinking about picking up an SKS with a beat up stock and then getting a bullpup kit for it. How hard would it be to transition it from stock to the kit? And were are some great deals on SKS's?

 

EDIT: Sorry, for some reason I put the topic as bullput instead of bullpup.

I think it would be a cool project, I'm just wary of most aftermarket bullpups as they seem to always be somewhat clumsy. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Desert Tech has a really cool Bullpup coming out. The DMR in multiple calibers starting with .308 and 5.56. Should be some serious awesomeness coming out next year or possibly even this year.

I have to buy a nagant again. But I cant decide on the SKS tho. They all look good in their own way. Except for the white ones.

NO!!!!

NO!!!!

Dont worry, I still find bullput ak's hideous, but the mosin nagant and the SKS might be some fun conversions. Specially the nagant. Keep people guessing on what kind of rifle it is.

Decided on converting a mosin nagant. Found one for a reasonable price, will offer up the stock and any extras when its done.

I may be interested in an extra wood stock.

Quick google search turned up nothing.

Pretty happy with my shernic, I would recommend it.

Now heres the million dollar question. Where can I find an SKS for dirty cheap? Or would it be cheaper buying all the internal components for one?

I found one for $220 at the boro gun show. Kind of kicking myself for not having bought it. Rough stock on it, but everything else looked fine.  :surrender:

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

Found another one for $250 and I am broke until next pay day. Not really broke, but not in a buying of anything short of food and gas mood.

Aye, might be able to talk em into hanging on to it till ya get some cash, they'll probably never be that cheap again mein bruder.

At the risk of starting a philosophical discussion on fate; there is no such thing as fate, ONLY the paths we make for ourselves. Take that as you will.

My only beef with changing an SKS to a bullpup is that it only adds complexity. You pull one trigger then the bar attached to it pulls the actual trigger. Seems like too many moving parts to me.

 

I tried out quite a few of the parts for my SKS at one point or another.... even got a converter to use AK47 mags. After all said and done, it worked the best in the original stock with the 10rnd fixed mag.
