So can a browning 306. My SKS doesn’t use mags you can get stripper clips but it doesn’t hold that many shots. Its nice you googled something and got it wrong.
You can modify them to use a mag. I did for a short time years ago but restored it to its original configuration. Using a magazine kinda sucks with that gun.
Sks is a 7.62/30-06 round, which is a good round for medium to large game. The ar15 is 5.56/.223 which is much smaller and not suitable for more than varmint or coyote.
There’s a really wide range of opinions on what animals 5.56 is ethical for. I’m not gonna say they’re all valid, but this opinion this person shared is an opinion people have.
The SKS has the same size standard mags as an AR-15 and can do everything else the AR-15 can, but with a more powerful round.
How is it “just a semi automatic hunting rifle” if the AR-15 isn’t?

My SKS uses 30 round detachable magazines, so OP is not incorrect. it’s a rifle that’s been around forever with tons of different configurations

Dude, I was in gun sales for years. I’ve had my hands on a thousand SKS rifles.
Just because you don’t have detachable mags doesn’t mean it can’t use them on the rifle. Like an AR it’s a very adaptable platform.

It’s incrediblly not a 30.06. SKS fires a 7.62x39mm cartridge with about 1400 ft/lbs of muzzle energy.
A 30.06 is 7.62x63mm cartridge with around 3000ft/lbs or muzzle energy.
A .223 from an AR has about 1300 ft/lbs, making it MUCH closer to the SKS than the BAR.
Holy shit you have no idea what you’re talking about LMAO
