Hi all,
I'm considering buying an SKS, but have no experience with them at all. I did some pretty extensive reading on the net and was able to find pretty much all the info I wanted, except for one question.
Let's say I wanted to keep it loaded but with no round chambered. Is it possible to load the magazine (from a stripper clip or one by one), then push the top round down with your thumb and let the bolt ride forward over the top round? If it wouldn't work with full magazine, maybe with 9 rounds only?
I bet someone tried it already...
