I enjoy collecting guns, swaping and staying up on all the newest models. I deer, quail, squirrel and rabbit hunt.

I have a late 60s bring back with a corroded chamber and a 90s Norinco production.  Both are fun to shoot and as billy sez, with a little practice you can hit a brick at 100m.  Have fun.  Mikey.

The gun is fairly accurate and is fun to rock and roll with for plinking. I have a Chinese cheapie and use it for deer hunting in bad weather (with good Federal ammo).

I've got a 59 Chinese model that shoots very well. I bought it last year for $200.00 in excellent condition.

Plain as homemade soap, stout as a truck axle, and as much fun as I can stand and still keep my clothes on.

I have had several Norinco rifles as well as a couple of Viet Nam bring backs I bought from Marines.  They all work well and will shoot much more accurately than any AK I have owned.  I also have a couple of Russian made ones.  Other than wood type they are like peas in a pod all the same except for the markings.

I was told by my ffl coworker I had to get one of these if i liked guns when they first hit our shores.  After shooting it I have to say he was right!!!!  This was as much fun to shoot as my very first 22lr was when i was a kid.  I'm sure i had the same smile too on my face.

All I can add is when firing a new gun to you for the very first time, make sure you bring plenty of ammo.  Thru years of experience at the range i have never had enough ammo with new guns.  I was having so much fun shooting it i would run out of ammo before i was done with it.  Trust me bring extra ammo your going to need it. The sks is a hoot to shoot.
