rwhite, have you played around with an SKS? I recently passed on one that looked almost new (serial numbers all matched, barrel was perfect). I am 99% sure it was Chinese (although it had the pointy Mosin style bayonet sticker). I though about it for awhile figuring I could replace the stock, and perhaps convert it to a 30 round magazines. My thought process was along these lines, I always thought SKS's were decent rifles, but with 30 round magazines, they would be much better. Can an SKS stand up to the heat emptying a 30 rd magazine generates?

One of these days I might just add one, if SKS's every go back to being reasonable. The guy wanted $380, which I though was very high priced, even for one that looked new.
