Collecting Chinese type 56 SKS

Some of the commercial variants are pretty rare like the SKS-D, SKS-MC or the 5.56 Nato SKS which is very rare. If you're okay with restricted, the SKS Paratrooper.

I have a blend of them here,but I tend to look at the Russian Siminovs more often,moreso because of the production numbers,compared to their Chinese counterparts...
