Just bought an SKS after seeing the miami zombie shit. Has a synthetic sporter stock because the factory wood stocks were too short for me. ![http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk242/cazlax187/156577_10151772748245313_507220312_24000683_471497789_n.jpg](http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk242/cazlax187/156577_10151772748245313_507220312_24000683_471497789_n.jpg) ---

Good to know. Do you know how easy it to convert to detachable magazines? Not AK mags, SKS mags. ---

Where is the best places around here to start shopping for a glock? Out on the west coast you could pick up a Glock 17 for around 425 450 brand new. What are the prices like here ? ---

As Adam said, Zack’s has some nice MFS zinc-plated steel cased non-corrosive ammo 500rds for $150-170. My SKS loves it. Plus, it’s non-corrosive so you don’t have to be a Nazi about cleaning it immediately after shooting. > [@S2K at Bob Johnson in Rochester](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/s2k-at-bob-johnson-in-rochester/49719/6): > > Good to know. Do you know how easy it to convert to detachable magazines? Not AK mags, SKS mags. I wouldn’t worry about detachable mags on it. If you convert it to accept detachable mags, you’ll be limited to running 10 round mags until you make the gun 922r compliant. Look up online the parts needed, as I never looked into it. I like the factory non-detachable mag on it because it feeds reliably. > [@FS:JDM honda parts!!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-jdm-honda-parts/49710/17): > > Where is the best places around here to start shopping for a glock?

If you’re on NYFirearms, he’s on there. He also has a Facebook page. His prices are really good on the Gen 3 stuff from what I understand, not sure about Gen 4. B&J also has good Glock prices. ---

The mag coversion for the rifle works better on the poly stocks than the wood. Iirc jug has one unless he sold it already. Doesn’t fit his SMS well(wood stock) and didn’t want to hack the original stock to suit ---

What are the prices like here ? american shooter supply(former b&j), oakwood trading post on oakwood ave, guns inc are all $525 + tax on regular frame glocks. gen 3 or 4 doesnt matter with plenty in stock. firefly on nyfirearms has a decent price if i remember, but availability was an issue. for some reason he couldnt get me a gen 4 when i requested it not that long ago. like cossey said, his gen 3 price isnt that bad.
