Since I live in the evil state of New York and the saiga ban prevents me from getting a NY safe compliant AKM I am looking instead into purchasing a type 56 sks from classicarms. These have a lot of bluing wear and stock wear but from what I've read and heard mechanically they aren't that worn and should be quite reliable. I wanted to know if any you have any experience with classicarms sks's or know someone who has and what you think? I have fallen hard for the 7.62X39 cartridge (with my eye sight 350-400 yards would be my max with irons anyway). If you guys don't have any experience with classicarms' sks then what are your opinions on the sks in general, in particular the type 56? I've heard (since these are early all milled versions threaded in) that the quality is similar to that of Russian SKSs.
