Looking at purchasing a sino-soviet SKS. Started doing my research on these for replacement parts. IE. pistons, firing pins and so forth. Well, I kept coming across these somewhat older post from different parts of the world wide web about how the Norinco SKS had to be altered to a maximum of 10 foreign made parts, however the Yugo SKS, was completely fine to have because of the 922r law. If all I want, is an original, Norinco SKS, Do I still have to do these changes to fire it occasionally? The 922r doesn't' make sense to many I have found, and I'm no exception when it comes to this I guess. Please help out with any knowledge of the sino-soviet SKS, and does it have to be changed. I'm not planning on changing the stock or anything, unless the internals need be. Thanks for all the help and advice in advance.
