Get a cheaper than dirt catalog. They sell 1000 rounds for something like 129.00 plus shipping.

Spike bayonet or blade or is it removed?

Yes, SKS's are a blast, I have shot mine out to 200 yards. Good enough to do what it was intended for.

What kind of advice would you like? I know a bit about them, yes. I know more about the Russian Simonov's but they're pretty similar.
