Full-Auto Conversion Of The SKS Rifle

---

This manual also covers the Minute-man fast and easy wire conversion method. Necessary photos and drawings to accomplish the job.

Full Auto SKS Conversion

This manual gives you a very detailed and easy to understand description on the function of the fire control group as well as several different possible methods of "conversion". As entertaining as it is informative. Highly recommended for SKS owners. Only registered users can write reviews.

And I seriously doubt that the army trained its soldiers to intentionally break a perfectly serviceable semi-auto rifle.

The Sailor is right.

Not only do you really need an open bolt which the SKS doesn't have but the metal alloys that are in the SKS will not allow you the weapon to fire full automatic for any length of time. Of course, I am not a metalurgist nor am I a gun smith. I just repeat what wiser and more experienced people have told me.

I have had my SKS and many other weapons for some time. Im ex-military Army and am also very knowledgible when it comes to weapons. I tried to convert my SKS and could not. Yes, it does "slam fire" once every blue moon, but the SKS was not made for full auto fire there has been a few SKS rifles that where made with a 3 round burst and should not be converted.

If your in a state that allows sales of one, save your money and buy a full auto. Dont risk your safety or your freedom because you think it would be cool. And yes, I have converted other weapons, but legally. Stay safe and upright and your mags full! Between and I tried everything I could to get a case that would either make things perfectly clear as to exactly whose minds are engaged in the political machinations of making people miserable and why, or, in the alternative, restoring at least a semblance of equality to the game amongst the majority of unwitting participants.

My efforts, prior to the events of at Waco, included, but were not limited to, the SKS question at hand. And indeed, one requires nothing more complex than a simple mill-bastard file and strong enough fingers for reassembly. I had developed the legal case that was conspicuously missing from the records — the issues that, to my research to his day, have, still, never been addressed by any of the courts.

I never experienced any of the other malfunctions that seem to be so widely discussed. And, fwiw, the purpose of my handiwork was bait for my sting operation. You did gunsmithing work of the precision needed to alter the operation of the sear, disconnector and trigger mechanism with a mill bastard file? You had a problem with releasing the safety causing the rifle to fire? The only thing the safety does on an SKS is block the trigger. The only way releasing the safety could cause the rifle to fire is if you had your finger on the trigger when you did it…or the sear was so lightly engaged that the slight vibration of clicking the safety off caused it to release, which would also mean any other slight vibration would also cause it to release and it would most likely go into uncontrolled automatic fire every time you shot it.

Thanks for the info in between the BS and bastard files. Probably save a few bucks in ammo as well. Hope all is well! If it aint broke dont fix it! You can make a gun malfunction in such simplistic ways, but that is unreliable and unsafe to do.

Quick Overview

To truly make an automatic weapon out of a semi auto requires at least a moderate amount of gunsmithing knowledge and the ability to modify and manufacture parts to very painstaking specifications. Perhaps you should read my post again. There actually was a variant of the SKS made by the Chinese that was designed to fire in three round burst mode, but it was relatively short lived and later versions went back to the more reliable semi-automatic only design.

It requires a knowledgeable gunsmith with the ability to manufacture parts to do it correctly. Powder burns wrote an interesting book on this subject. If the trigger is depressed the hammer will not fall until the bolt closes which trips the disconnect or allowing the hammer to fall. They apatently remedied this by using civilian brass standard primer ammunition. Anyone with a file some Jb weld an old set of feeler gages to cut up, and the knowledge of what to do can convert an sks.

Unless your into prison gang rape. I am an old military man. We have been through several wars since Most of the kills were made with a semi auto rifle. The M1 Garand was a semi automatic, If you had to carry this thing was bad enough but to carry the 8 round clips was worse. How long would he last if he used a Machine gun. The SKS is a very good rifle.

It handles much better with a poly Monty Carlo stock because the sks rifle stock is out of balance as supplied by the manufactor. The orginal leaves to much weight on the forearm making it dificult to shoulder. So after I made a couple of walnut stocks I found out that Plastic is better. No-One needs Full automatic.

If you have to destroy that many people use a different method. Something else to remember is this. You do not need a 30 round clip. Instead use no more than a 20 round mag.

But carry 10 more mags. Changing mags is not that slow.

You do not have to agree, thats your right, but I was taught to make your rounds count. Full auto is a fun way to turn money into smoke and noise but is not very effective in less than platoon size encounters.
