February** Power Event Today, I would like to introduce you to a kind of ** full of history**, Simonov SKS!

This is a rifle that was in service with the USSR in World War II, and it is not as famous as the AK47, but it is also popular with many people. In particular, the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle produced in China can be described as famous. Even now the Russian military still regards this ** as a standard guard of honor.

Sergei Simonov invented a semi-automatic rifle in 1945, the full name of which is the "Simonov" type self-loading carbine, which is commonly known as SKS.

This is a semi-automatic rifle developed in World War II, but some people believe that this ** was born in 1945 and eliminated in World War II, and two years later, the Soviet Union created an even better and more famous AK-47 submachine gun. So the level of production of SKS semi-automatic rifles was not high, either at the Tula plant in the USSR or at the Izhevsk plant.

But as the saying goes, "a mountain is still a mountain high", this gun is still very popular in China, and with the help of the Soviet Union, in 1956 began to copy China on a large scale, becoming the well-known 56-56 semi-automatic rifle in Chinese.

However, this kind of ** is not only imitated by China, East Germany, Yugoslavia, Albania, Poland, Romania, North Korea, Vietnam and other countries are also imitating, and a total of more than 15 million are produced.

During the Vietnam War, SKS served as the main equipment of the squadron, and the squadron served it for decades to come. This rifle from the Soviet Union has made great contributions to China and won decades of peace for the Chinese people.

The SKS carbine uses pistons, short-stroke, pneumatic, bolt and other devices, which are novel and forward-looking in structure. The gun is equipped with a fixed magazine that can be loaded with 10 ammunition.

The rifle adopts 762x39 mm bullet with a total length of 1021 mm and an empty chamber of only 385 kg, it is very convenient to carry. Although no specific figures have yet been released on its rate of fire, the SKS rifle has shown excellent accuracy and stability in real combat. Its effective range can reach up to 400 meters and can be used in a variety of battles. This vintage sniper rifle from the Soviet Union combines high power and lightness, allowing the user to take the situation with confidence.

Now, armed men in some parts of the world still carry SKS rifles. Although this ** has been rarely used in Syria and Iraq, it has been rarely used. In Europe and the United States, SKS carbine and its imitations in various countries are more sporting goods used for hunting.
