Shitpost / Memes Hush Holsters SKS2000
Heads up, guys check your Hush Holsters SKS stock. Mine cracked from the buttstock to the grip after just a few uses and I’m still waiting on my wood replacement.

Ngl, this is part of the reason i was hoping the nylon versions would be more readily available in Canada. I trust those more than the wood for this type of setup.

This is why the sks should remain in original condition, none of these hideous stocks make them any better

Damn that's a weird place for it to crack. Can't imagine what forces would cause that, especially since it's around the grip area. Maybe they're overtorquing the stock adapters leading to failure around that section? It's a bit of a weird design with only one through bolt on an angle.

The quality of that wood is atrocious. My SKS2000 is sitting in the box on a shelf.

u/Livid_sumo 1d ago
Not very cool of you to comment Corey. This is the 2nd time a comment of yours has not lived up to your user name

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
Only the second time?
Do you find 3-5 inch groups impressive?
Explain your thoughts

u/Liebwin 1d ago
Because we have money to spend 😂✌🏽🤣

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
Well that's a weird comment, if you had money to spend then why would you buy one of the shittiest guns and a crappy stock? Idk it's just mind boggling to me but to each their own ✌🏿

SKS is one of the shittiest guns to buy? Are you huffing poo?

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
Is it because it looks cool?

u/Fickle_Ice_7584 1d ago
I don't care bout the looks though SKS are cool for sure. But you said the shittiest guns and crappy stock, crappy stock that may be but the SKS is the goat, only limited by the internal magazine. Even for the new price of $1k you can't find a better semi auto.

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
I honestly think it would be a challenge to find another gun that shoots 3-5 moa, that is exceptionally terrible, especially for the ridiculous price point of an SKS at $900. You could buy nearly any bolt action for that price point and have MOA or sub MOA accuracy (literally 3-5x more accurate).
I understand because of the state of the country and our dog shit gun laws you guys try to gravitate towards the cool looking, military style or semi auto guns that are available.

u/Fickle_Ice_7584 1d ago
If you buy an SKS to try an take first place at the bench rest competition ya you're gunna be let down. Nobody buys and SKS because it's a super accurate platform. They buy them because they're borderline indestructible and go bang every time if you clean it once per decade. If they were so horribly inaccurate nobody would hunt with them. If they're good enough to kill a deer who cares about MOA.

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
Yea but no one is shooting deer with them. And why would you? There are better options for virtually every application, the gun is a boom stick for people to shoot bottles and cans with, prove me wrong
3
u/Fickle_Ice_7584 1d ago
Yeah there's definitely better options, I won't be hunting with one, but plenty of people still do. And if you truly believe it's only good for shooting cans and gongs then who cares about accuracy at all? If it hits the pop can or the gong why does it need to be better? I've never met a guy who complained about their SKS accuracy while shooting steel at 50 yards. would you take a bone stock Honda civic to the drag strip and get upset when its not as fast as a Corvette? You can't fault something for being bad at something it was never designed to do.

I think one would discover that a great majority of Combloc autoloading firearms would struggle to pattern better than 3moa. And Most Nato counterparts would struggle to pattern better then half that (1.5moa). The more u shoot, the more you will come to acknowledge that if a guns accuracy compliments the maximum ballistics of the cartridge, what's really the benefits behind it being more accurate at that point? Take 7.62x39. Alot of the bullets start to destabilize around 650 yards. And most most would agree that the ethical big game energy range is inside 200yards. 3moa will ring a 24" gong pretty reliably out 650yards. 3moa will boiler room a deer everytime inside 200 yards. If u had a bolt gun in 7.62x39 that shoots 1moa... what would you do differently? Shoot a 10" plate at 650yards.... only to discover that it dont ring nearly as satisfying as the bigger gong anyways lol. You say that ur capable of head shooting a deer inside 200 yards but ultimately your still gonna aim for that 6moa boiler room haha.

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
I agree with you, although the majority of people with the exception of natives are not hunting with an SKS... So the stopping power, boiler maker shots mean nothing. The majority of people are shooting paper or steel gongs with their SKS are they not?

u/Murray3-Dvideos 1d ago
Agreed, and outside of an AR15, in the autoloading world its decently good at that compared to its competition in terms of accuracy and reliability. The ergonomics of the SKS id argue is where its real shortcomings are.

TIL the SKS, known as one of the most reliable guns ever, maybe the most reliable semi auto ever, is “one of the shittiest guns”

u/Cool_Corey 1d ago
"A surplus SKS typically delivers 3 to 5 MOA (minute of angle) of accuracy, meaning it will group shots within 3 to 5 inches at 100 yards."
Lmfao...

Maybe a Russian one, but not a later model chinese manufacturered one

Type 56 or something different?

That chrome lined barrel goes a long way. Also running good ammo is the biggest factor

I haven't owned one, but i have handled one, and although its a great idea for our market, the wood quality and Quality control is less than desirable...
They Should've went with polymer for sure..
