I got a new (to me, of course) Yugo SKS the other day, and took it to shoot today. I was pretty surprised with the accuracy with all I've heard about them. Everything was hitting in about a 3" circle at 50 yards - pretty good for me. Anyway, I cleaned the gas tube and everything pretty well before shooting - but it almos tfeels like the gas valve doesn't want to go all the way to the right and stay there. The grenade sight seems to be in the way a bit. Also, the valve isn't very tight - it will move with just the slightest pressure. If I put the valve all the way to the right and put the ladder sight on top of it, it holds down jsut fine.
In short, is this normal or do I need a new gas valve? Eagerly awaiting some insight.
