Where can you buy drum magazine for sks?

None were made for the fixed magazine models. Only the detachable mag SKS-M and SKS-D can accept the detachable AK drums.

SKS drum magazines were made and are still made... Typical duckbill style to replace the original 10 round box magazine! -Vic


Is your sks an assault rifle?

Assault rifle is a legal term, and laws vary place to place. Under MOST of them, it is a centerfire semi-auto rifle larger than 22 caliber, with a removeable magazine that holds more than 10 rounds, and a pistol grip. The SKS does not have a pistol grip, and has a fixed 10 round magazine. Not an assault rifle.


Can you fit an ak 47 magazine into an sks?

As originally designed, no. There were two models of the SKS made in China that were made to use AK type magazines, but most SKS carbines are meant to use a fixed 10 round magazine. Many people have attempted to modify an SKS to accept Ak magazines, with indifferent success. It requires reworking wood and metal.


Can a yugo sks clip go incide a norinco type m sks?

Are you talking about the clip to load rounds into the magazine, or the magazine itself? It is a magazine, not a clip.. In regards to the clip, the answer will be yes. In regards to the magazine, the answer is no - the SKS-M uses a detachable AK magazine.


How do you put a 30 round mag on the 10 round SKS?

It will vary depending on the make of your 30 round magazine. Rarely do I find a 30 round aftermarket magazine that works well for these rifles, and reloading with stripper clips is quite fast. If it were mine, I would not.


Which is more powerful M16 or SKS?

The SKS packs a bigger round (7.62mm) than the m16 (5.56mm) but the m16 has a higher magazine capacity, better accuracy,and a higher rate of fire, so the SKS is more powerful, but the m16 is generally regarded as a better weapon.


What is a sks-m or a sks-d?

How does clip lock into a Chinese sks?

The clip does not lock into the rifle. To load the SKS, you would first lock the bolt to the rear (this requires the magazine to be inserted). You would then take the clip - which holds ten rounds of ammunition - and insert it into the slot at the front of the bolt carrier. You would then push down on the rounds to feed them from the clip into the magazine. After the magazine is loaded, you then pull upwards to remove the clip, at which point, you can chamber a round and begin firing. See related link "SKS carbine operations" for a visual demonstration of this process. If you're looking for how to install the magazine into the SKS, check the related link "SKS Assembly and Disassembly". See also the related link "Clips vs. Mags"
