You do not have to do anything to it unless you are going to assemble it into an unimportable firearm.

I thought Norincos were fine? I know for Yugo SKS thats been C&Red have to make it US compliant

just curious, what needs to be done to make it uimportable

[TOrrock]

Pistol grip, folding stock, detachable mag.

Basically, don't attach a crap magnet to it and throw it in a Tapco catalog and you'll be fine and not have to do anything to it.

You could have left the bayonet lugs intact as well.

Reading this brought a question to mind. What if a person had a stock Norinco SKS bought new in, say 1992. If this hypothetical SKS came with the bayonet attached and still had it on would the owner be in violation of 922r? :cool:

No, 922(r) only applies to assembly, not possession.
