Well, Central Indiana anyway...hello...I'm a 51 year old married man w/three kids. My youngest just graduated high school this year.
I'm a railroad electrician of 28 years...enjoy outdoors, and sending occasional lead down range.
I have just received my first "grade 2" Chinese SKS from PSA...will be posting with details, questions, soon....

Will post more later, I've got it disassembled, appears all numbers matching, even stock, however it's pretty trashed.....the stock that is...and it's got a floppy safety lever....may or may not have been my fault???...will start a thread on it soon...

Hi and welcome from NH.Yeah,I consider those grade 2s to be nothing more than gunsmith specials and should be advertised and sold as such so folks don't get their expectations up too much.

Welcome from the arid side of the Evergreen State. In the upper 90s to low 100s part of the summer here.

I'm about 7 years older and have only been shooting and collecting since I was your current age.

Hey Hoosier.
Welcome from Arizona.
I was actually born in Indiana, but we didn't stay up there long enough for me to remember it.

You've found the right place to find info, tips, tricks, fixes, and fans of the SKS.

Pull up a chair.
