Factory 26 SKS

Post by rick54R »

Hope to have this by next week. The last time I purchased a SKS.....I paid $100.00 for it, a box of rounds and a soft case from a local Pawn Shop, 1993.
Used it to deer hunt with. This thing looked brand new when I purchased. I have always regretted I sold it.

I've had 5 of these. They all shoot better than a Norinco I bought new in the early 80's. Expect a 2" group at 50 yds and 3-4 at 100, unless you're like me and can't see 100 yd anymore. :shifty: They shoot best with the bayonet locked on. add 1st digit of the number to 1956 and that's the manufacture yr. Unless it has a letter, then it's a '56 made by Russians.

Sino-Soviet, made 1st six months of '56 by Russians. Some were leftover parts and had a Tula star on the cover. :thumbsup:
