Chinese army SKS surplus at Princess Auto

Some 15 years ago I got an SKS at dealer pricing from Century International Arms. Came with bandoleer, sling, cleaning kit, oil bottle. $86.
 
Tried to find one like this but they only had these in my neck of the woods. Pocket on the far left is rubber lined or something similar. and the pocket on the far right has a mini pocket inside with an elastic around it. Kinda looks like a mini pen pocket. A translation would be rad. (if possible)

it says type 56 "assault rifle" ammo pouch made in 1983 by some county factory. Note, it's not for SKS but for Chinese version of Ak 47 aka type 56.
 
I stopped by today, looking for a magnet to help pick up casings. They had 3 in stock - 2 were SKS models, one was a type 56. They all had the same bar code. I bought the 2 SKS pouches. They were $9.99 plus tax each, I'll sell them for $11 plus postage if anybody wants one.
 
One left now.

Btw, I went to the range with my Izzy today, put 160 rounds through. I stopped picking up casings at FOUR HUNDRED, there were hundreds more lying around. I even found some 7.62x39 casings AT THE HANDGUN RANGE. Pick up after yourselves, people - don't make everyone think SKS shooters are the A-holes of the gun world.

Those Princess Auto magnetic sweepers are handy
 
Both pouches gone now, I'll keep checking Pa from time to time if other people still want one.

RMX,

Thank you so much for sharing your good fortune. I've been looking for an SKS bandoleer for some time now and am very happy that you offered yours.

I am a realtor and in my industry, when a realtor goes out of his way to help his colleagues, our board (Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver) awards a "bouquet". Well, here's a "bouquet" for you, RMX.

Reading your feedback, I am thinking Satain got the other bandoleer. Well, Satain, I'm wearing my bandoleer at the next Gong Shoot.
 
You're welcome. Hopefully they will have more soon.

You two can play communist gong shoot next time! I need to fine me one of those pointy Vietnamese hats now...
