Sales In Canada

The Chinese SKS Rifle, chambered in 7.62x39mm, embodies a rich history as a gas-operated, semi-automatic firearm that solidified its role as a prominent military rifle in the 1950s. With its tilting bolt action system, integrated 5-round magazine, and folding bayonet, the SKS has earned its reputation for reliability and functionality. Its appeal in Canada is notably due to its affordability and the widespread availability of ammunition, making it an excellent choice for both recreational shooting and hunting.

Constructed with a traditional wooden stock and rifle grip, the SKS features a gas-operated mechanism with a spring-loaded bolt carrier and gas piston rod. These components work in tandem to unlock and cycle the action through gas pressure. This rifle marks a significant evolution in firearm design, bridging the gap between the semi-automatic rifles that preceded it, like the Soviet SVT-40, and the more compact AK-series rifles that followed. Its design results in a slightly higher muzzle velocity compared to its successors.

Each Chinese 56 SKS rifle offered is a hand-picked military surplus item, ensuring no cracks in the stock and optimal functioning. These rifles, produced in the late '90s, are in mint condition with matching serial numbers, showcasing the care taken in their selection.
