[SoLDneR]

Heya guys !

It's will sound maybe like a noob question but ill ask anyway !

I have a new/unfire SKS tula 1951,and i know that some of the pre 1951 and before are not chrome barreled,so if i get it right sometime in 1951 they decide to chrome the barrel,right ?

So how do i know if my sks have the chrome barrel ?

Thanks for input !

Look inside the barrel you will see silver outlining those that don't have it will not have that. If you want
RUSSIAN SKS's. 1949 was the first year production and had two different variations, the most notable being a spike type of bayonet on the early version and later in 1949 switching to a blade type of bayonet. Most other characteristics are the same for 1949-1950 except for the gas block. Starting in 1950 several variations can be found in regards to markings and different types of latches. 1951 saw the introduction of a chrome lined barrel and late in the year a change in the bolt design. 1952 was a transition year where the trigger group, bayonet lug and adapter and the rear sight base underwent some changes. 1953 to 1956 encountered basically no changes in design. The Tula star on the receiver was believed to be used late in 1955 or early on in 1956. The top receiver covers of these rifles were unmarked.

That's how the muzzle of a chromed barrel looks like.

You can recognize the 'bleeding out" of the chrome...
