I bought a Chinese SKS around a year ago and the bayo lug was ground off and I'm wanting to find a new front sight assembly to make it right again.
I tried Gunbroker, Numrich, Buymilsurp. and browsed around on the net a little and so far I've come up with nothing.
Anyone have a extra one layin around or know where a guy could find one of these?

You might want to try here, some of these guys are pretty serious and knowledgeable about the SKS.

I am pretty fond of mine as well, and would not trade it for any AK. I think it is one of the best all around rifles I have.

If you wanna sell your sks front sight base, I'll buy it from you. ;) I had to cut my last one off to mount the muzzle brake, and I don't mind not having a bayonet attachment.
If so ill send you an email

We put it onto his rifle a while ago here at my place. I believe the rifle has since been traded or sold.

Oh I see you want one sans lug. We had to cut the old one off. It wouldn't budge even with a press.

You can check the diameter of the barrel, maybe an AK fsb will fit? There are plenty of those available & the height might work.

It wouldn't be the first time someone assembled a 'mutt' rifle


viewtopic.php?f=58&t=8836

Here's a link to some FSB's for AK's They list internal diameters in the description
