WTS: Norinco SKS and ammo

[Cwood]

This is the last of 3 SKS's that I had. It is a all numbers matching Norinco. I do not have the orignal box mag and there is small nicks on the left side of the stock by the magwell, you can see the nicks on the 3rd pic. Other then those two items the rifle is in great shape. I have shot it numerous times and have never had a problem with it.

Plastic Mag (unknown Manufactuer)
Steel Mag (Crude, but the best functioning SKS mag I have had)
Sling
Cleaning Kit in Rifle Butt

coltaceguy What are the US parts installed on this weapon?

I'm guessing none since it's an all matching numbers original........ ?
If it's a question about the assault rifle ban bullshi* that expired.

Not the 922R compliance law. That's only if you replace a part though. If no parts have been replaced, your good to go.

I believe he was saying this because of the 30rd mag.

There is no US made parts in this rifle. The rifle was purchased in 1992 and the box mag was removed when I purchased it.

BINGO.

I was asking because that rifle has OBVIOUSLY been mod'ed to take a detachable 30rd mag. It MUST be 922R complaint. Regardless of the "way you received it", YOU are in violation of the law. If there are no US parts on that rifle, yikes. Nothing to do with AWB. The rifle was taken from a "sporter" with a fixed magazine, to an "non-sporting" type rifle with the addition of the detached magazine. Much like if I took a mak-90 and installed a Pistol grip on it WITHOUT us parts, I'd be in violation of the law FYI.

This rifle is not in violation.

First It was modified before 922r was implemented so it is exempt per the statue.

It is unlawful to manufacture, transfer or possess a semiautomatic assault weapon as provided in 18 U.S.C. section 922 (v) . However, a semiautomatic assault weapon, which was lawfully possessed under Federal law on September 13, 1994, may still be lawfully possessed and transferred.


An SKS rifle with a fixed, non-detachable magazine is not a semiautomatic assault weapon. An SKS rifle having a detachable magazine and only 1 of the qualifying features (i) - (v) is not a semiautomatic assault weapon.

Second according to 922r just changing out the box mag to a detachable does not make it in violation. It still needs two other "assault weapon" characteristics to make it an assault weapon.

As defined in Section 921 (a) (30) (B) , of Title 18, United States Code (U.S.C.), the term “semiautomatic assault weapon” means a semiautomatic rifle that has anability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least 2 of -


(i) a foldingor telescoping stock;

(ii) a pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;

(iii) a bayonet mount;

(iv) a flash suppressor or a threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and

(v) a grenade launcher.

A semiautomatic SKS rifle with a detachable magazine and 2 or more of the above qualifying features (i) -(v) is a semiautomatic assault weapon as defined.

My SKS just for the first quote is exempt and second it does not fit the law for it being a assault weapon according to 921.

Thanks for viewing!
