Best Answer

First ensure weapon is unloaded by removing the magazine and moving the action back and forth several times. then look up the barrel from the stock end to ensure that there are no obstructions before proceeding further. NOTE: if you are inexperienced with firearm handling do not proceed further because you risk damaging the weapon or personal injury or death.

remove gas piston by rotating lever upwards until gas cylinder is unlocked. then remove action by rotating rear lever upwards and pulling pin outwards, the action cover will lift upwards. remove bolt and carrier assembly by sliding back and lifting upwards. now all necessary components are accessible for cleaning.

Yes, bears have been taken down with much less powerful firearms, but the SKS is not a real good choice for this as it is relatively low power and only a medium caliber.

How do you clean a Russian sks assault rifle?

The website surplusrifle.com has good information on MANY different rifles and pistols, including the SKS. Follow instructions on field stripping, and use the supplied cleaning rod and parts. If you do not have the original cleaning rod, you will need to get a cleaning rod, a .30 cal ore brush, and a patch holder. If you are shooting corrosive primed ammo (most older Soviet and Chinese ammo IS corrosive) then the bore and gas piston will need to be washed with hot soapy water.
