There was once a Post on www.gunboards.com titled, Type-53 Production Fugures. I wonder if anyone has those Figures here on this Site? Execpt for the 1960 Made Type-53's, there was just over 4 Million of them Made. and less than 2 Month's of Production on the 1956 made Carbine's. Mine is just at the end of the Production Cycle. 1960 used a different style of Serial Number System. :?:

I don't think you will find production numbers from China. It is the reason we can't by Chinese SKS's as a C&R. They refuse to give that information out, even to this day. So there is no way to prove the age of your Chinese SKS, so no C&R (BATF rules).

Best site on the T53 is here
