Is the SKS still relevant in any way?

Wouldn't this rifle be the perfect choice for insurgents due to availability, accuracy and reliability.

Enough with the dumb fucking questions day in and day out

>>29548282
Any gun is more relevant than having no gun. In practical terms it is outclassed by an AK if one has access to an AK.


Insurgencies don't win with rifles anyway though.

None of the above describes the SKS.

Umm.. What else would you go innawoods with?

This. Well said.

No, the SKS isn't functionally superior in any way compared to AKs, which are what most insurgent groups tend to use.

It's a good supplement to the AK if that's there. But not ideal in Kalash dominated market sadly.
>>
>>29548282
Well....

It wouldn't fall apart like most AKs in the US, but if it doesn't accept detachable mags besides shitty duckbills it kind of sucks.

ARs are plentiful enough to not need to use them.
>>
>>29548282
The short stroke gas piston system and the longer barrel make it slightly more but the differences are negligible. The AK is a much more practical gun IMHO, that being said, a cherry Russian SKS makes me moist.

>if you want to own one.

It is obsolete compared to a modern rifle. or less modern rifle. Its magazine sucks, and its heavy for what it is. It is not particularly notable for accuracy or anything else when compared to its contemporaries.

>as a weapon

It is not the best, but there are still a lot of them, it probably wont break anytime soon, and there is still a surplus of its ammunition, plus what makes it still relevant is that its ammunition is still made.

>Longer barrels make it more accurate

Why are you still talking? Better yet why are you still spewing completely incorrect information with a trip? You're an idiot who knows nothing about guns yet you continue to post with a trip like it gives you any sort of credibility instead of making you a target.

>>29548337
Except that's not correct
