Buy recommendations SKS….

Obviously with getting my PAL issued, my first purchase will be an SKS.

I’m thinking about the ATI because I like the “tactical” look to things opposed to how wood does.

Won’t even be buying a wood stock shotgun….

Anywho, how hard is it to make the SKS take removeable mags?

If I did it, is there any way to reverse it?

Edit: I’ll probably just snag the Alder AD500… I think it meets more of what I’m looking for. Thanks for the info to stay away from the ATI SKS

Is it really that good rather than a laminate Russian one?

I see ticklers going for $100-$200 less than a laminate Russian Sks so I’m curious why everyone loves the tickler

Best fit and finish, best accuracy overall minus the Yugos. New and unfired.
