Just about had this set up how I wanted to be. The only thing I was missing was a longer stock to increase the LOP for my long gangly self.

Seeing all these posts with SKSs in them really makes me regret trading mine off for a Mosserg 500 Mariner… that I never even shot and traded for an Axis, that I sold without shooting. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Gawd looking back I was such a schmuck of a kid. Lessons have been learned the hard way for sure.

Man these were honestly one of the funnest firearms I’ve ever owned. Outside of rimfire stuff I don’t think I’ve ever put so many rounds down range in such a short amount of time.

I’d happily jump on the Makasi or Carmel if I had the funds to do it. Specially with the ammo that’s just collecting dust for now.

If I had to pick though, I think the Carmel wins. It doesn’t exactly fit the bill but to me it looks like a SCAR you’d find on Wish or Temu. If you squint and cock your head to the side, it looks close enough. lol

I thought that if you squint really hard and look between your legs it looks almost like a bren 2 ms lol  buddy had nr conversion before his boating accident
