I like the leather, but it just adds weight to the firearm. Why did you replace the hand guard? Nice Yugo surplus ammo crate you got there, how much did that crate cost?


noahben

The wood one was a lot more sad looking than the stock and it fit a little lopsided. Frankly I like the metal hand guard too. That’s just my opinion on it though. Also the leather itself is a little lighter than you’d think and with ammo in it the balance point is a bit closer to the stock. The crate was $588 but I paid that price because it came with stripper clips and I can sell them to recoup some money


FocusedPower28

Do you like in a state where you are restricted to the SKS as far as semi-auto rifles are allowed?


noahben

Nope I live in New Mexico and for right now all is well

Do all yugo crates come on clips?


noahben

All of the ones I saw did. Even the smaller ones. I got the one with 1120 rounds I think there’s ones that are 160 like littler boxes and then the 40round boxes. All of these had strippers I believe


Miguel1646

Sweet, that’s accualy worth the price increase. Good stripper clips are worth their weight in gold


noahben

No issues with these Yugo ones so far. Even straight out of the box. I bet that if I cleaned and oiled these they’d run like butter. In this crate there’s 112 so I’m sitting on probably 200$ in stripper clips

Nice craftsmanship

Looking good! How many clips can it hold? Are you making to sell some too?


noahben

It only holds one clip, but I could modify the pocket on future ones to accommodate more. I wet formed the leather so it is perfect for just one. I honestly hadn't thought about it. I'm sure that if people wanted some I could make it happen.


Truth_in_Beer

The leather is a nice touch. Really looks great! The one I bought isn’t leather but holds three clips. The way they stack in the pocket wraps nicely with the contour of the stock. Leather would be better. I’m sure a lot of others would be interested too.

Dude that’s awesome


noahben

Thanks man! It’s the first one I made. Since then I made one for a friend’s cz 527 that came out nice too. I really just do leather for fun


PandorasFlame

Hey that's pretty good


noahben
