Back in my army days, I always figured that we were just really lucky that none of the the boys were ever hit when some of the local beligerents poked a few rounds at us. Turns out the average SKS groups about as well as a 12 guage with 6 shot at 150 yards.

Makes a nice paperweight. Maybe a short range plinker.

Definitely not a hunting rifle. I know of a few individuals that decided to carry one for deer and were nabbed by F&W due to the integral bayonet and attempting to use surplus ball ammo instead of an appropriate bullet.
