SKS (Simonov's autoloading Carbine)For replacement of store 7,62-mm of carbines of system of Mosin under a cartridge in 1943 development of an autoloading carbine under 7,62-mm a cartridge обр has begun. 1943 Per 1944 the sample has presented S.G.Simonov had a wide experience of work above automatic and autoloading rifles.
