        91/30s rule the world. That's a nice looking rifle.

        The CZ52 is fun (mentions it in your sig). I like mine. Then again, it's nowhere near as nice as a 1911... though it IS a lot cheaper.

          Hey, is that a Tech Sights TS100 or TS200 peep sight on your SKS? How do you like it?

            The ts200.
            It's actually pretty sweet when it just
            comes down to targeting.
            At first it sucks if you
            don't know how to use the "ghost ring", but after you
            figure it out, it's extremely natural. The trick is to
            only focus on the front sight and center it around the
            fuzzy blob (That's how you see the ring).

            Kinda like a red-dot I think. Just point and if the post is
            in the middle, shot. Not much focusing.

            On the other hand:
            There's some situations that it's hard to focus, like night
            shooting with a light behind you; It lights up the ring making
            your eye want to focus on the ring instead of the post/target.

            You need to know how to set it up
            so it holds zero after you've taken it off (tricky)

            The set screws damage the finish on the receiver.

            On some skss (mine) the latch had to be cut off. You'll
            need to order a new one if you ever want to go back.

              I collect AKs but love my SKSs. The yugo is a natural shooter from its long barrel and GL on the end. Nothing funner than sitting down on concrete with a pile or chest pouch of stripper clips and going to town on a gong with an SKS, highly accurate and more of a rifle feel than an AK.

              As for the 91/30s, also great but finicky on ammo, if you havent shot it yet buy several types of ammo for it, heavy, light, and varoius countries. Each of my 91/30s likes different ammo.
