Recently took ownership of this SKS on an OPFOR Archangel. As you may see it’s quite dirty and therefore isn’t cycling very well. Looking for tips/instructions on the best way to strip and clean the action, I also need some wisdom on how I can remove the body to try and give it a scrub and clean.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

The plastic behind the dust cover stops you from being able to remove it. You need to fully remove the action from the stock to properly disassemble the gun.
