Buy recommendations Looking for sks stock recommendations

Hi all, finally became an owner of a chinese type 56 sks. Looking for stock upgrade options.

I dont wish to put 69 different mods on my sks,

I also dont mind losing access to my bayonet.

Looking for a stock upgrade thatll be compatible with bipods/ mags and maybe just maybe ill put a short scope on her but not right now.

I was considering a choate dragunov stock as it looks filthy sick. But really dont want the fab defense ones. What other stocks or chassis systems would you guys recommend and from where. Please advise

If your going to make your SKS into a DMR style rifle go with the choate stock I used my buddies and it feels so nice looks even better if I get my hands on a SKS I’m definitely throwing it in a dragunov stock.

Bro that is the only stock i was considering aside from a walnut wood stock. The only reason i wanted a walnut wood stock was so i could stain it a darker stain and put clear coat but the checkered design fuckin threw me off. So i thought of going with the dragunov choate. Heard some guys saying its top barrel hand rest warps under longer firing periods and some say its not comfy and then theres other people saying that it takes away the feel of the OG vietcong experience and handles wayyy differently. So im really in a dilemma. Pls help
