Are you in Canada? Is the SKS restricted here because of the magazine?

The point that I think the OP was making is that an AK-47 can empty its 30-round magazine in 5-10 seconds. Your SKS can only hold, what, 10 rounds? So you would have reload twice in the same amount of time. It's also not fully automatic so would take longer to empty.

That being said, it seems like the panic that's caused lets people reload plenty.
