early sks price check
early sks price check
i found and early norinco code 26 in the 8 million range in vg shape but not matching and no bayo or cleaning rod. is it worth any more than the later years one i see in the $275-$325 price range.

Probably not. Unless you know for certain it is a rather rare collectors item. The 1979 and 1980 made ones were perhaps the best the Chinese ever produced. I recently bought a late issue Chinese M21 Military Carbine for $300. Brand new, never issued and full of grease.

$275 to $350 are still very much available.

Those 24 million ones are the really fine built ones. Most likely the very best as China was trying to assure our government they were making

Re: early sks price check
once these guns have been messed with and different parts are on them so they do not match. It lowers the value on them Its nice if you collect to get as many of the factory codes you can find. You also want the fist issue Chinese sino soviet model with serial number below 1 million and the earlier ones with Russian serial numbers and the factory 26 hand stamped after are the ones to start a Chinese collection with.
