#4.......................that about says it all.1) Difficult to mount optics.
2) Trigger isn't great.
3) Most Americans don't understand tangent sights.
4) 7.62x39 has the ballistic trajectory of a beach ball.

That really isn't THAT big a deal if a person takes the time to learn their trajectory lasers the range and has a way of compensating.
Most of the shooting I do is unknown range with a timer running. The stages typically run ~60 seconds to engage multiple targets from (typically) 5 to 300 yards.
You might have time to laser targets or be shooting at known distances, but I rarely do.
With 7.62x39 range estimation is critical out past 150 yards or so, with significant offsets as you move from close or far. With 556 NATO I can zero at 200 yards and know that I'll always get hits (ballistically not skill) a 6" target anywhere from point blank out to 260 yards or so without having to make any adjustments for drop.
Not everyone only shoots on bright, sunny days at a known distance range with no time pressure.

Why am I suspicious that most people that would take a SKS hunting would not be using laser range finders?
