I found a temporary replacement for the Yugo bayonet lug screw on Amazon. It is an M6-0.75 x 16mm socket head screw, but it is not suitable for the Chinese SKS.

The project aftermarket Choate Tool Inc. SKS stock, titled "Changing Stock Appearance," is complete. I purchased a nice US-made AK47 grip at the local gun show and attached it to the polymer stock. The stock is compatible with all buttstocks designed to connect via a Picatinny rail.

Any AR15-type buttstock can be easily added to this build.

I restored the Russian laminated stock to its factory condition; now it looks as new.

For future projects, I'm experimenting with an AK-47 front sight block and a shortened SKS barrel.

The worn and rusty Yugo barrel has been replaced with a Chinese chrome-lined SKS barrel. I'll test the hybrid Yugo-Chinese rifle at the shooting range shortly.

Here is a fully assembled SKS rifle featuring a modified aftermarket stock with a folding buttstock. The barrel will be threaded M14x1 LH for the muzzle brake.

After my unique modification, the AK-47 FSB is complete. The FSB block is compatible with barrels with a diameter of 14.25mm or less, or 9/16 inches. It is secured to the barrel with pins and two M4 set screws.

Another Yugo receiver is waiting for a quality barrel from China or Russia. I prefer to avoid Yugo barrels because they are not chrome-lined, and most have rusted and pitted bores and chambers.
