Description:
LG2566 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 its 7 digit 2 prefix, 400000 range serial number, it was manufactured in 1958, the Year that the ARVN began its controversial commando training school at Nha Trang, Vietnam. 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 this specimen. It shows some substantial original bluing, but perhaps majority gun metal gray. Buttstock has moderate scouring, and is military issue but possible armorer replacement. The stock does not bear any legible cartouches, but metal parts serial numbers are all matching. We rate this type 56 as Good, 60 percent vicinity by our estimate. Photos, at any rate, ought to suffice for our shoppers to judge finish grade for themselves. Bore shows etchy texture next to the gas ports only, but rifling is sharp and clear fore and after, especiallly the crucial final 6 inches at the muzzle. Chamber is clean as well. A principal reason this rifle is so well preserved is the grease we removed from it, enough to have a pretty good fish fry. This is a well made, well preserved, historic and collectable specimen whose mates popped caps at our soldiers in Vietnam. We’re offering it for only $ 319.00. Definitely C&R Eligible.
