I have been looking for an SKS for a while now.
I sold my SKS but I still have bunch of 7.62x39 left.
After coming across this post I just couldn't resist,
I had to go and get one. I just picked one that looked
good to me. I expected to get a really beaten up rifle,
force matched #, etc.
However, I got a nice surprise after taking it home and taking a closer
look while cleaning it.
It is a laminate stock, all matching SN, except the gas tube.
The barrel is like new.
The service is at Lever was the usual but for that price I really
don't care.
I just wish they didn't record PAL#, etc.
