10 round box mag serial number and 922 question
« on: December 22, 2009, 09:16:08 PM »
I got an SKS with a 10 round box mag whose serial numbers didn't exactly match but everything else seems to. The serial number was struck through and the so called "matching" serial number was etched on near the edge of the magazine. It's obviously not the original mag. My question is: does this mean I have to worry about 922 now. If so do I have any quick and easy options short of locating the original mag? (I think I have a better chance of finding an honest politician than the original magazine. LOL)
Well, it's official. All three of the branches of the Federal Government are using the constitution as if it were TP. RIP Freedom and freewill the old republic has been replaced by a very potent kleptocracy. We're getting what we deserve, I guess.

No you will not have to play the 922 game.

No, it's just a replacement part.  FYI:  Typically, forced matched parts are an indication of rework in the county of origin.
