Hello - I recently purchased a SKS rifle, Norinco. I have one already in original form, but this one has the Fiberforce stock on it, and has been converted by removing the fixed box magazine to feed AK mags.
It's a nice rifle and in great shape, but my problem simply, is that it does not seem to hold a AK mag in place. I simply can't get them to latch on. Incidentally, a have a older South Korean issue AK mag (much heavier construction) which clicks right in place with no problems.
Is it the type of AK mag which is the problem? Will it hold some types but not others? Also curious, if it might not just be better to reconvert back to it's fixed magazine as it was originally?
Thanks for any input/advice.
