Yikes! Bubba Got a Hold of this one. Going for that SKS look xD

Bubba does not need to be around guns.

I wonder if one day all those $79 dollar SKS rifles that came into the US, box complete, will one day be like this? Worth thousands of dollars and many of them jacked with to this point by Bubba and collectors just balking at Bubba’s job?

Oh well. Another new one for my serial number listings anyway.

We're already getting there.

Go look around and see what a Russian SKS costs. It's not $1k, but it's sure as hell not $75 any more either.

See also: all the m91/30s that were imported in the early 00s.
 
I don't understand, you go through all that work to modify the stock but there's no rear sight, how are you supposed to aim this thing?!

Someone isn't embracing their inner bubba.

You aim it using the optic that you have mounted on the side rail.

Ounces equal pounds, pounds equal pain.

And you carve up the stock so that it's maximally ergonomic. So that you can be a 1337 snipz0r with your ~*~custom Nazi rifle~*~

I think I said it in a previous thread, but ca. 2000 or so you saw this a lot with G/K43s. It was the bougie, has money version of a tapco'd to fick* SKS back when a bolt m/m rifle could be had for ~$1200.

*edit: I really love how we have a profanity filter. Constantly have to down-shift like I'm talking to my MiL's church friends. Bonus points for it being a small dick joke like this is a frat house in 2002.
 
I bid on that rifle... It went for a LOT more than I thought it was worth. Rob at Apfeltor said he could do the metalwork repairs on it for about $525.

How much did it go for? For me not worth much more than 1200 bucks. You said 500 for repair, so still looking at mid 2000 range for a nice shooter after finding a good stock. That seems about right.

Looks like somebody was going for the Rasheed carbine look, but why cut off the rear sight?

In the auction pictures that weren't reposted here, it showed that "bubba" had cut out part of the ZF4 scope rail to attach an aftermarket scope mount of some kind (it wasn't shown as part of the auction).
