What is the strongest gun?

Not an easy question to answer. Strongest often means largest. Here's a brief sample of why answering is a problem:Largest land artillery piece in the US arsenal - Atomic Annie (currently on display at the US Army Artillery Museum at Ft. Sill) the M65, weighed 83.3 tons towed, 280 mm. Test fired at Frenchman Flats, Nevada Test Site, 25 May 1953, 0830 local. The W9, 15kT projectile (the only nuclear artillery round ever tested) traveled seven miles. The unclassified effective range was 20 miles, but rumor has it the cannon was able to reach half again as far.Largest naval artillery piece in the US arsenal - Mark 7 16" guns fitted to the Iowa class battleships.World's largest working revolver - replica Remington 1859 built by Ryszard Tobys from Poland. Weighs 99.2 pounds, 4' 1.5" long, 15.75" high. Cylinder holds six 28mm bullets.Largest sniper rifle - Barrett M107 .50 shoulder fired rifle.World's largest centerfire rifle - SKS .950 JDJ. Fires a 2400 grain ball with 230 grains of powder, with the kinetic energy of a WW2 Panzer round.World's largest artillery piece - the Schwerer Gustav Super-Heavy Railway Gun fielded by the Wehrmacht. Weighed 1,350 tonnes, 47.3 meters long, fired 81 centimeter 4,800 to 7,100 kg HE and armor piercing (respectively) rounds. Range, 48 km.World's largest handheld pistol - S&W Model 500, .50 caliber revolver.World's longest range gun - (Nomenclature unknown) on 10 December 2010, the US Navy test fired the largest rail gun (projectiles launched by electromagnet as opposed to conventional powder charge) ever fired. The size of the projectile was not reported, but it exceeded Mach 7 (+2382.03 meters/second) and traveled over 100 miles.In addition, Russia built the 890 mm Tsar Cannon in 1586, two 910 mm shore guns were built by the UK (Mallet's Mortar) in 1857 and the US (Little David) in 1945, the Russian piece was a bombard, the UK and US pieces were mortars, generally referred to by these names or shoreguns and not the less specific guns.

Is an SKS an assault rifle?

"Assault rifle" is an imprecise term. An SKS is a semi-automatic rifle, which preceded the Kalashnikov AK-47. It is not suitable for laying down a lot of firepower, which most people would feel disqualifies it as an assault weapon.++++++++++++++++++++++An assault rifle, by definition, is a selective fire weapon, firing an intermediate cartridge, and intended typically for engagements within a 300 metre range. The SKS does meet two of these three criteria, but lacks the selective fire option.Assault Weapon is a term which is often misused. In 1994, the BATF had to define a "civilian assault weapon". They came up with a definition which classed any detachable magazine semi auto weapon with two or more of the following features:Pronounced pistol gripBayonet lugFlash suppressor (muzzle brakes, however, are excluded)Barrel shroudCollapsible buttstockBy this definition, the standard, fixed magazine Simonov SKS (and variants) would not fall under the BATFE definition. However, some models from China were designed to use detachable AK magazines - the SKS-D and SKS-M models. Furniture varies greatly on the Chinese models, and some do have a pronounced pistol grip and attached bayonet, which would make those specific models fall into that category.California's ban predates the Clinton ban, and excludes ALL features, so that any rifle with even ONE of those features is considered an assault weapon under their law. However, like the Clinton ban, it only pertained to the detachable magazine models (SKS-D and SKS-M), so that your typical, run-of-the-mill SKS with the fixed magazine wasn't going to be classed as such, even under California law. California, however, created a list of specifically banned firearms, and included detachable magazine SKS rifles in that category so that even a featureless SKS-D/M rifle was now classed as an assault weapon by California.On an additional note, it's said above that the SKS is based on the action of the AK47. This is untrue, as the SKS was developed independently of the AK47's development, and also predates the AK47.


What is the value of a 7.62 bore Chinese sks?

The Soviet & Chicom (Chinese Communist) SKS was a Vietnam War carbine used by the North Viet/VC communist forces. It was replaced later by the AK47. To obtain a value check the "Blue Book" on firearms. Or go to a SKS website. Note: The SKS (and the K54 pistol) was the ONLY enemy rifle that could be legally brought home by GIs in the Vietnam War as a war souvenir. Captured US firearms or fully automatic firearms could not be brought home.
