Very nice end of the line Russian SKS,there Sir. Now you just need one of the rare "K" hardwood non-refurbs to go with it.

Most do, but the last 6 crates at the local HH only hold 10. I prefer the 15s, if I'm gonna get greasy give me more guns to paw through!

Does anybody have information or history about the gold bayonet? Is is cosmoline staining? it looks like powder coat or anodize.

Thanks for the link. I've read the link before but overlooked the gold bayonet info. Now that I have one coming my way with gold, it sparked my interest.

Does the dust cover have the year and tula star?... or is it blank?

Ha.. I found out on my own... however what about the stock... does it have a star on the right side?

I can't help but think... you could have got a really sweet rifle for the cost of 11 SKS's. But to each his own! He who dies with the most toys wins!

1st time i've heard of an SKS being a "safe queen".
I guess different people value things differently.

Ok, "safe comrad" then.

No star on cover and stock. On right side of stock there's only an inspector cartouche.
