Through my history of research and general gun loving I have stumbled upon this website countless times, and decided today that I was going to finally sign up. I hope I can be a beneficial addition.
Anyway, I'm in the process of purchasing a firearm - particularly something affordable that spits out a decent amount of lead relatively accurately in a semiautomatic mode. After searching out my options for a couple of months, I've finally settled on the SKS and, God-willing, this Friday I'm going to go check her out for myself.
So here's the question:
I've been reading up on it as much as I can about the piece (and have found a lot of really helpful information) but, seeing as a lot of you guys have been around the block, I was wondering if you could help point things in particular that I should be looking for or staying away from when I hit the shop Friday?
