I just upgraded my Yugo SKS to the 21st Century and it didn’t go there kicking and screaming, it ran like hell! The Matador Sabertooth Mark II is the best upgrade to the SKS I’ve seen to date!!! I also bought the Matador extended mag release. The fit and finish is better then some AR-15 I’ve fired. Plus you get the SKS reliability. I can drag this thing through mud and water, and still fire rounds. I installed A Hitech 37 round magazine. It is an increadable design that is made of solid steel mig welded and no duckbill junk! The I added a mil-speck magpul stock, magpul AR grip and a mil-speck buffet tube. Last but not least a 1-4x28 long eye relief scope! I bought my SKS over 20 years ago and only paid $33.00 bucks packed in a wood crate full of cosmoline. It was in excellent condition made in 1944. All in all this upgrade cost me around $400.00 bucks and I could not be more impressed. I could have purchased a cheap introductory AR-15 that would fire about 200-500 rounds and be ready for the scrap pile or upgrade a work horse and never worry about it being on my bench other then a good cleaning. You can say what you will about the old SKS, but Matador has moved this rifle into the 21st Century

If you're thinking about getting this, DO IT! I LOVE mine!!!! I've told everyone I know with a SKS to buy 1!

Fairly easy to install after a little preparation of my rifle. Just took it to the range over the weekend and it was great!

Great customer service and quality products

Perfect fit Super seller

Very nicely made. I have a norinco and it slipped in perfectly with the front spacer. The only complaint I have about the frame is that you can only put small accessories on the bottom rail.( I had an extra 45 degree foregrip that is too long to fit) other than that no complaints on the new frame. And as for MPS great service, fast shipping. Just wish I signed up for my LE discount lol

I really like the stock . If I could change anything I would like this stock to be able to accept 7.62x39 AR style magazines other than that I love the upgrade to my SKS

I have not purchased one myself, but I have seen one up close. My comment is that if you went through the effort to engineer a new platform for the SKS rifle ( at a fairly high price point), it would have been a winner if you designed the mag well to take AK mags, instead of the cumbersome "duckbill" mag. Anyone who has used this will tell you it is not ideal. Also, if there is no heat shield in the handguard, its going to get uncomfortable after a couple of mags unless you have gloves on. Other than those items, it appears to be a quality chassis. I would definitely purchase one if it was designed for AK mags.

Quality appears to be there but it will not fit my sporter model that takes ak47 mags, however the website does state 'duckbill' mags only, other than that, without being able to range test it, the only 2 draw backs i see is you have to remove the pistol grip to break down the rifle. Also why did you not make the rail in front the same height as the scope rail you sell, that way we could use ar15 flip up sights, makes no sense to me to eliminate iron sight capability when it could have been designed into that upper half extrusion. Get that fwd. rail the same height and i'll buy another one, and i think you'll sell them easier also.
