Enjoy. I love my Norinco Paratrooper.

very nice !!

 

whats the markings on the receiver ?

 

do you have the wood for it

It looks so un-Jersey with that folding stock. Scary! :)

SKS' are doing nothing but going up in price (especially the troopers) Get one now before you end up wishing you had when they were cheaper.

Oh, Daddy likie!!!

 

My friends have tons of these but I don't know all that much about them except they go bang. This was made by whom and where? Imported parts kit made into gun in USA? Somebody else mentioned Norinco SKS.

Ed, it's a Norinco(chinese) "Paratrooper" with an aftermarket folding stock. The rifle alone can usually be found for 350-400.

 

ETA: Standard length SKS' have a 20" bbl, whereas the para comes with a 16" one.

I'd like to say "nice dude!", but I can't. Um, great lighter!

Quit hatin brah!

While I prefer a wood stock on an SKS, the underlying fact is that the gun is robust/durable, fun, reliable, and accurate. And Ray, it may be the greatest Zombie gun ever.I guess you only like Tupperware pistols, not rifles. :)

We don't still import Chinese rifles, do we?

 

I've heard good things about all models made by Norinco. That's the sickest SKS I've ever seen.

Add to that hard to load, slam fires on occasion, hard to clear a malfunction, no ergonomics and bad triggers. And it's not the greatest zombie gun ever, sorry. AND I rock a 1911 son, put that in your pipe and smoke it playa!

 

love you Chrissy

Eh, I wouldn't be talking Ray! We all saw your video from the zombie gun shoot...talk about malfunctions, slow reloads, and overall struggling.

 

Mhmmm :facepalm: ...

 

Edit: And if you practice, you can load strippers in an SKS faster than you could load a mag in an AK.

+1. My Norinco and Soviet SKS' are bulletproof. And stripper clips are just as fast or faster than mags.

The original "paratrooper" was imported by Navy Arms. They were all wood stocks.

 

Navy Arms also used to sell a "Cowboy's Companion", same as the paratrooper but without a bayonet.

^that's funny. But at least you are saving on ammo. By being slower than people with modern firearms.

Stripper clips are no slower than AK mag changes, IMO. The only limitation is that strippers hold 10 rounds.

An AR mag change is a different story. It is clearly faster.

Understood, thanks.

Check yourself bro, both guns are new to me and one needs some fixing. If there was a video of me shooting during the shotgun stages you wouldn't say a word, I had beaten all the semi auto dudes.

Seriously........ A member posts a new purchase ....... and it turns into a chest beating pissing who has got a bigger dick match.....

 

 

...... and we wonder why some original members dont post here anymore.....

Haha woahhh. So you can give everyone else a hard time 24/7 and when someone actually says something to you that doesn't include 'you're right Ray' (aka - gets on their knees for you), then you get your panties in a twist?

 

Cmonnn now, that's no fun!

I have 2 sks's.. 1st one is a romanian which i have mounted a scope on very fun gun and cheap to shoot..

 

also have a norinco all matching #s unfired.
