Hi all,

 

I'm interested in replacing the wood stock of Norinco SKS into the one made by Tapco, which comes with a folding stock. I have read some articles about when SKS comes to modification it must comply the 922®, which means at least 4 parts out of 14 must be replaced by US made ones. The Tapco stock offers stock and handguard, and I can buy Tapco gas piston to replace the original one, which gives 3 in total. Most people says replacing the magazine will handle the rest, but problem is that in PRNJ no detachable magazine is allowed for SKS and no 15+ rnd magazine is permitted either. Under this situation is it still OK to install new stock to SKS?

 

Thanks.

Personally - I can not remember ever hearing anyone being busted on 922r

and personally, i really wouldn't worry about it, but if you are dedicated to converting

your SKS to a Tapco stock, and (for obvious reasons) can't go the detachable mag route 

you are going to have to go inside and replace trigger, hammer & sear to get compliant.

 

I really don't see anyone from the ATF asking you to disassemble your rifle to show them 

the US stamp on your trigger group, but have at it.......................

Thanks for the explanation.

I recently made my SKS 922R compliant, even though it's not enforced, I feel more at ease. Murray's trigger parts add 3 USA parts http://www.murraysguns.com/922r.htm

Tapco did sell a 10rd fix mag. I was able to find it in green at this online store.

I could not find it in black if that's the color you want. 

Thanks guys, much appreciated. Found a fixed 10 round magazine on eBay.

I have a 10 round fixed Tapco magazine in black, brand new still in the packaging, if anyone is interested.
