    Certain Norinco types, the like picture provided are banned by name. Like he Type D with the detachable mag and the sporter version with thunbhole stock if I can remember correctly. I was able to purchase and dros the shortened Norinco paratrooper. Just look for a nice russian Tula or a Yugoslavian. Honey Badger in San Diego has a nice Yugo hanging on their wall currently. I also saw a nice Tula with red furniture on the Poway Weapons and Gear wall last year.

        ^

        The SKSs were ~$75 in the 80's...

        I was so happy then

          No bueno?

          How would it be no good or not legal to use the fixed 20 round magazine in an sks?

          I have a chinese star 20 round magazine, never used it yet though

            All fixed mag semi-autos are limited to 10 by law. That covers SKSs, maglocked AR-15s, CompMag'd AKs, etc.

              That is a model "D" SKS. I had one but had to sell it when I moved here from Tennesse.

                Interesting, thanks hibiki

                Not sure I can understand that though. We can shoot 30 rounders + in feature-less semi autos,

                But if its a fixed mag in a sks..it cant be more then 20? The sks is say a factory 26 chinese C&R in original Woodstock/no pistol grips or muzzle devices?

                  The laws regarding the SKS is a complicated story, but suffice it to say that the SKS can really only be used with its original 10rd fixed mag and any change from that triggers AW laws.
