How many legit 49 non refurb SKS?

Here are some pictures of an early 49.

Although it was purchased from Westrifle, you can see that the stock has not been refinished. First 2 pictures show the difference between a blade and spike stock.

my first one was a 49 non refurb, it was a great shooter... i shot it out, action moved in the stock, almost no lands left .. so one less in canada.

This thread is about the Russian Tula 1949.

Cool info that I have learnt spiraling thru this thread and the links.

Anywhere I can find info on these couple SKS's? These have alphabetical serial numbers tho one is not stamped up top and from what I gather '58 production?

Were there 1949 SKSs with a spike bayonet that had a 45 degree gas port? I have seen a couple refurbed 49's with 45s and I used to own a heavy refurbed 1949 with a 45, but it also had a blade bayonet.

No they all had the 90 degree gas port

Look for the SKS boards on the interwebs & you can go down the rabbit hole...

I have yet to find a non-refurbished '49, but several stock replacement refurbs. For the record, my most accurate SKS was a well worn '49 in a proper factory-fitted replacement laminate stock. The rifling was almost as smooth as a baby's a$$, yet held tight 3 MOA. I had a similar experience with a well worn early 1950.

I bought two back in the days from a retailer. Both were advertise a non-refurbs both were fakes... The only one that probably even harder to find in non-refurb 53 Izhevsk.
