Norinko or Russian SKS ...which is better.. with all matching numbers which is worth more.....can you deer hunt with them..5 round clip?????

Yeah, you can deer hunt with them, but it isnt a good round for deer. There are a ton of way better deer rifles in semi auto out there, you might consider them. I got rid of mine due to its uselesness and impracticality as a hunting rifle. But, If you just gotta have it, go with the Norinko, I had one and it worked fine as a 0 to 100 yard semi auto. EJ

Get your self a Russki, that's a real military rifle and manufactured accordingly. Quality varied a lot with Norinco. The Russian will have collector value if you don't butcher/bubbaize it.

russian is better, and yes it;s a good rifle, just use the right ammo, shoot straight and do something alot of folks don't do and thats stalk. try to get closer, not just shooting from 400yds.

i consider the sks the farm tractor of the gun world- ugly, heavy as sin, but it starts in the rain and rarely falters.

My neighbor has hunted with his for the past 5 years - he didn't have a rifle so I sold him one for $1 (he didn't have any money either). He's gotten a deer every year.

Definately use the Russian and paulyseggs is right, use good ammo.
