The SKS is a lovely gun! However, if I'm in the mood for that style of gun, I just use a pistol. Typically, it's used as a pseudo-marksman when you don't connect to the server fast enough to get the actual marksman. I realized how great it is when playing on haditha with it. I ran around a corner no-scoped a guy in the thigh and he died immediately. I much prefer it to the shotgun actually... The only downside is to reload you have to empty the chamber. I know most people wait to reload when they run out, but I'm obsessive about reloading after every kill.

What are you talking about reload ofter every kill? its Semi not bolt action.
Its one of my favorite guns right behind the AK-47 Because its one hit kill, (in the foot) and gets the Job done alot faster then the weak :cursing: M-16- Joined

I know exactly how you feel. Me and my friend call it load syndrome. And I have to perfect cure for that...Painkiller
But gotta admit that I haven't read the update news that carefully so I have no idea what the sks is, but when I do get to know it, I'll get back =)

I reload my weapon after each kill, (typically) the sks won't allow you to reload until you empty the magazine.
The sks is the alternative rifleman weapon for the insurgent side. It's been in the game since...a long time.

Oh that... I never remomber the names of the weapons in this game x)
Anyways, I hardly never use it, mainly for it's vision blocking iron sights and the fact that you cannot reload it with out shooting your mag empty.
I find myself shotting two or three shots in the distanse and shooting the rest of the mag to a wall to get reload it, I'm that obsessed of reloading.
Thats kinda of bad that yall reload after every kill. The only reason you should reload after every kill if you are just going full auto and firing like 15 bullets into one person. I know me personally with any auto I'm firing 3-4 bullets and that usually kills them. So I usually reload every 3 kills.

If you have a real life comparison that's ok, but I've carried an M16 into combat and found it adequate if you use it the way it was intended. There is a reason that the Nato armed forces train their troops to go for head or chest... and the
5.56x45 cartridge is the reason that they can consistently hit those marks AND
carry adequate amounts of ammo into the field. Where the AK does appear to
have substantial knock down power, most people who use the weapon cannot
effectively place their shots on a target beyond 300m. The SKS Simonov which
chambers the same round as the AK-47, 7.62x39, can place rounds more
accurately due to the longer barrel and greater rifling ratio in the barrel.
The SKS is both prolific and reliable and I find it a good weapon in the game
unless you are in close quarters which it has a slow re-chamber rate ( the
weapon is slow in extracting the spent casing and chambering a fresh round).
You can pick up an SKS at a gun show or shop for anywhere from $90-250 and
the ammunition is extremely cheap.

Actually, I have found that using the RPK and SAW help with this immensely. When reloading takes you somewhere in the hours, you want to reload as few times as possible.:lol:
