Thank you! Yup totally agree, and as the saying goes "it's better to have it and not need to use it than one day need to use it but not have it." or something like that lol

Yeah the SKS is a great SHTF gun for sure, its very rugged, easy to use and I've yet to experience a single malfunction on that gun! Would definitely highly recommend it as a SHTF rifle. Plus the ammunition is (at least where I live) is fairly easy to acquire in large quantities as they're all milsurp!

Glad you liked my post on it :)
