Anywho...as I'm sure that you're aware...people are looking to restrict access to assault weapons™ because they're terrified that some asshole with a black rifle is going to shoot up the kroger, or a school. Crime, going down. Mass shootings...up. It's clear that we have a problem. To use a very apt metaphor, we're dying - and it may be that the cause is something other than the obvious or easiest - but it doesn't hurt to deal with that while we figure out whatever the more comprehensive solution might be. If you went to the er for a gunshot, and found out you had cancer, they're going to stitch you up before they put you in chemo.
SKS can be. There were some available that used AK detatchable mags.
They can be a great rifle. I went through better than a dozen before I found one that hits MOA groups (1 minute of angle) at 100 yards. Russian commercial manufacture. It's a keeper.
