Product Description

The SKS - Samozaryadny Karabin Simonova is a Soviet semi-automatic carbine chambered for the 7.62x39mm round designed in 1943 by Sergei Gavrilovich Simonov. In the early 1950ies, the Soviets took the SKS carbine out of front-line service and replaced it with the AK-47; however, the SKS remained in second-line service for decades. It is still used as a ceremonial firearm today. The SKS was widely exported and was also licensed for production by then Eastern Bloc nations, Romania, East Germany, Yugoslavia, Albania, North Korea and China. The Yugoslavian-made M59/66 produced between 1967 and 1989, added 22mm rifle grenade launcher which appears visually like a flash suppressor or muzzle brake on the end of the barrel. Front sight has a fold-up ladder for use in grenade sighting. When the grenade sight is raised, the gas system is automatically blocked and the action must be manually cycled—rifle grenades must be fired with special blank cartridges and this feature helps ensure that the gas pressure is not wasted on cycling the action. The gas system is not automatically unblocked when the sight is folded, however and must be manually opened to again allow semi-automatic operation.

This kit contains all necessary parts for assembling THREE rifle miniatures at 1/15 scale, to be used with 120mm scale figures. Any extra diorama accessories are not included and should be purchased separately.
