First off you don't need to strip the gun to change to a 30 rd mag. You push one botton(well pull back) and the stock 10 rder comes right out. That simple.

Second... my 40 rd mags are way faster than strippers. You'll have to reload 4 times just to equal one mag. I then I just slap in another 40. I've not had one failure from my after market mags. Not one. Plus if you ever scope your rifle strippers won't work unless you use a very short scope.

Third... Russia/chinese type 56 are your best bet but yugo's are pretty good too. IMHO norinco's are hit or miss. I'd check a few out to find one that has a nice trigger and slick action.

You'll love the sks. Built like a tank and as reliable as the sun rise.
