needs more ammo
you can also remove the gas block from an SKS, then you can pull the connecting rod and piston from it for cleaning by using a bullet tip to lift up the takedown or release lever in about 5 Seconds. The only thing you would need a punch for is to change the hand cover on the Block, then again I'm betting you could use the firing pin to change the handguard although I've never tried it. Other than that the block itself is also interchangeable
Yep. I pull the gas tube and piston every time I clean my SKS. On rare occassions I pull the spring loaded rod that pushes the bolt carrier back. I still remember the first time I "sproinged" that rod free. That was probably the same day I thought I was going to lose my finger tip in the butt trap door. Fun times, fun times.
