- Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.

- Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.

They lack the bayonet and look too long to be 53s, probably just 91/30s
Also do these opinions happen to include that the safety really loves taking bits of your flesh and that the cosmoline will never come out no matter how much you bake it? Or is it the stubborn bolt? I see YouTube videos of people with their ultra smooth mosin bolts and I wonder how they got it like that. Luck of the draw I guess.
