The SKS is another underdog. Melissa bought this Yugoslavian one for me just because she loves me, and knew I wanted to have one around. I ninja'd it up a bit. They're great, durable, all around guns that cost next to nothing (Under $200) and eat 7.62x39 like popcorn. Mine has the silly grenade launcher and bayonet for stabby stabby time. This is one of those rifles that everyone should have. It's not too heavy, shoots a decent round, accurate enough for hunting or SHTF issues, and you can almost guarantee it will never break if you take care of it. Caveat: Get used to the stripper clips, or get an actual high cap SKS magazine if 10 shots isn't good enough for you. Don't get one of those AK magazine conversion jobs. They never work properly.


*I use the term "Hunting" very loosely. It's very accurate for whatever, is what I mean.
A beautiful weapon... my grampa has two, both have taken some abuse but fire amazingly.  Im a big fan, cool thread by the way, glad you mentioned it.

The SKS is one of the best gun designs around. No doubt.

I guess it's one, really.  That gun screams sex to me.  I don't know why.

That wasn't it, but I can use that as my reason if someone asks me.   :lol:

Maybe it's because it's a beautiful piece of American ingenuity and craftsmanship. Well designed, high powered, aesthetically pleasing.

Closer.  Maybe I do have an actual one-track mind, and everything screams sex to me.

I have to say that's a beautiful beautiful gun. . . I'm so jealous.

I'm curious, and really really stupid when it comes to guns. . . I just got done watching that silly movie "National Security". . . and the gun Martin Lawrence uses, a handgun with a seemingly semi-automatic (please keep in mind I have no idea). . . is this a legal gun, is it a REAL gun or is it one of those movie guns?  Personally, I couldn't think of something I'd rather have, except for that magnum you posted earlier on.

or the magnum from the movie Payback with Mel Gibson. . . that was a pretty gun too.

first time I ever saw this thread and I'm glad I did, very very interesting John.

I haven't seen the movie. Have you got a pic?

Most movies nowadays rely on either Desert Eagles (Overrated) or a custom 1911 of some type. Occasionally you'll see something different.

Desert Eagle
http://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/small_arms/desert_eagle/Desert_Eagle.html

1911
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1911

Custom 1911 (There's a million varieties, but they're all the same basic design that crazy Mormon John Browning came up with way back in 1911. There's a reason that it's considered the best pistol design, ever.*)






*Some people would argue that the Browning High Power is the best pistol design ever. Of course, the BHP is a slimmed down, less frills, 9mm successor to the 1911 without the government contract mandatory grip safety. Same designer, either way. John Moses Browning is the patron saint of non-dead self defense lovers everywhere.
