Russian VS Chinese SKS

[Loose-Cannon]

Top is M59 bottom M59/66. The M59 bayo is supposed to be that way. I agree, the Yugos were built top notch, especially the 59s. Should have kept them for sure, especially the M59.

Elm stocks on yugos, and serials only. You may also find a dif number on the magazine.... This only a production number and NOT a serial.

More apples to oranges, you prefer the look of birch, or both?

This aint my first rodeo fyi. I have like 30 SKSs.

I thought having that many was a requirement!! wish I didn't sell my 59/66, will be kicking myself for a long time on that one, brand new in the grease unfired etc. What was I thinking! What kind of prices are they getting down there for a nice copy of a Russian/ Chinese sks?

Yea I wish I woulda kept the top one it was tits I got an even better m59/66 the one of the bottom had some stock damage but it was in cosmolone both were. This other one I got has a ported nade launcher is 100 percent it’s used but I don’t see wear. Still that m59 was be nicest stock I’ve ever seen the sight blade was perfect it had a nice finish on the bayo. I needed to pay off my taxes so I dropped off like 20 rifles at prophet river because it was too painful to pick and choose all but two have sold.

Yes, I got mine from marstar when they got a bunch in, they had 2 grades, one that were lightly used and they looked nice and then some NOS 59/66 for about $75-$100 more and I opted for the NOS copy, it was awesome!
