NEW PICS Sks guru's what do you think?

i think what you were seeing was the heavy coating of dust it had all over it!
finish and color are even throughout
the muzzle brake is a different blue but definitly not from heat just different!

like that much dust everywhere!!

Ah, ok.

Good stuff then, you're a lucky man. SKS-D's are getting hard to come by. Usually the only ones I see are ones that have been shot out into being near smooth bore, and guys at gun shows are asking $500-$600 for them.

If you got one with a low round count, then good on you. Use it and enjoy it.
 
Leave it as it. Ignore the dumb comments. She's a beauty, and clearly barely used. It was probably polished more than it was shot. Are there any markings on the muzzle brake?

Ah, didn't realize it was threaded, hardly a dumb comment. Did you notice how I was super impressed with it in the previous comment? Aha! Now who's making dumb comments? Your dominos are falling like a house of cards. Checkmate.
 
and leave bare threads on the end?
its not a pin on or clamp on its threaded

... just get a muzzle cap to cover the threads. What's the problem? Not sure why the need for the confrontation...
 
A bayonet wouldn't work even if the brake was taken off unless the thread protector was the same size as the stock barrel... Which i highly doubt...

O well no bayonet. Meh
 
I think sub 500 rounds. I got a looked to me unfired, or very little fired, SKS from corwin arms, and I have 450 rounds through it now and my bolt and bolt carrier have about as much wear as the ones in your pic.
 
Interesting, I didn't think the SKS-d models came with bayonets or bayonet fittings. I've owned a couple, and none of them did. Also, threaded barrel, nice! I've never seen one with a threaded barrel. I actually like the brake on yours. Might get mine shortened to the legal minimum and threaded, as I'd like to put a Cz brake on it.

My D-model SKS, for comparison:

I'd like to see a pic of just the magazine removed from the rifle. It looks like someone made that mag from the bottom end of a 30 rounder.
 
nice stock but my fav would be the thumbhole stock, I think I only saw it once.

"D" comes in spike and blade bayo.

I'm betting his reciever says MC-5D

It's a sporter/M not a D. Both take AK mags but not the same guns

Compare the middle and the bottom rifles.
