Description:
Photo specimen is already sold, but we have similar rifles we have not had time to clean or photograph. Buyers may take a very similar specimen to this one, still in the cosmoline for $339. Years of production are 1956, 1958, or 1959, we will honor requests as best possible. Numbers may not match on subs.
Our #2605 Here is an eminently serviceable specimen of the Chinese type 56 infantry rifle chambered in 7.62x39 caliber, that we call the SKS. Manufacturer was Jianshe Arsenal in the People’s Republic of China, on Russian milling equipment and under Russian supervision. From the photo specimen's number 2 prefix onto a 400000 range serial number, it was manufactured in 1958, when the ARVN Army mobilized its commando training school at Nha Trang. Importer is Century Arms International, so marked on the right side of the barrel. Type, of course, is gas operated semi-automatic rifle. Construction is milled blue steel barrel, receiver and parts; and Asian Hardwood stock. Barrel is standard 20 inch, calibrated military rear sight and elevation adjustable front sight, with drift capability for windage – on the well hooded front sight. Bayonet is period correct blade type. Surface detractions are moderate to extensive on most of these rifles. They show some substantial original bluing, but perhaps majority gun metal gray. Buttstocks have extensive scouring and dinging, but no outright cracks. Trigger group, magazine, bolt, cover, and receiver serial numbers may or may not match, but all are original military. We rate this type 56 as Good, 60 percent vicinity by our estimate, and its mates are similar. Bores show some etchy texture next to the gas port, but rifling is otherwise sharp and clean, especially the 6 inches forward of the port all the way to the muzzle. A principal reason these rifles are so well preserved is the grease they are saturated with where they have been stored for years. Every buyer should disassemble and clean the entire rifle, including its bolt, see yooperj com SKS Page 25. These are well made, well preserved, historic and collectable specimens whose mates popped caps at our soldiers in Vietnam. We’re offering rifles similar to the ones in the photos, only still packed with grease, each for only $ 339.00. Definitely C&R Eligible.

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
GA Pay buyers are NOT charged until we confirm we have the item and are ready to ship it. The same thing is true for phone-in, fax-in, and mail-in payments. In this respect, and in several others, Guns America outshines all its competitors. This is the best firearms website there is, hands down.
