New shipment of Chinese SKS rifles

[MarstarCanada]

Hey Folks
We just got a batch of Chinese SKS rifles. These appear to be the last Chinese SKS rifles according to the distributor.
Sadly the stocks are a bit rough but these seem to be the only SKS available right now.
Check them out here:

Also managed to source a pallet of Russian 7.62x39:

I miss the days when you had unissued ones for dirt cheap when you bought a crate of ammo I am assuming these are refurbs?

I think that's a safe assumption: "Sadly the stocks are a bit rough..."

I bet these are awesome, worn looking examples. The description on your site makes them very tempting to me as a collector piece.

Weird variant pictured. Looks like Russian stocks on China metal. How did they fit the stock for the spike bayonets. Marstar do you have any closeup to confirm?

Wow Chinese SKS now worth $400.00!

 

[masterdom2]

Yeah jeez. the last one i got from marstar was $75

If I could be promised a rifle with worn off blue and rough beat up stock I’d be all over it. I see some examples that are in the states from classic and would love one that looks like that.

Marstar, is there any way to post pics, even a group pic, of what some of these rifles look like?

Same! unissue, unfired and in mint condition.

Russian stocks have a palm swell in front. That guns stock is flat. Just a very early spike bayonet Chinese SKS. The even earlier ones are identical to Russian SKS with palm swell and blade bayonet. Even use Cyrillic markings.

A bakelite stocked one would be desirable. They're not very common. A must have for an SKS collection.

Or, "wow, $400 used to buy several Chinese SKS, now it's only worth one."

I grabbed a few rifles to give you all an idea of condition:


Some rifles have considerable wear on the blueing (see 3rd rifle from bottom)

We miss the old days of 75$ for unissued SKS rifles too.

The early Russian sks with spike Bayo did not have the palm swell either.

Nice, just imagine, many of these were in the Vietnam war and other wars where the Chinese were friends with one side or the other! They look like they have seen action,,, history there for sure!

Remember when johnone stated the unissued ones were no longer available because the price increased at the source and he felt the market would not pay the increase? I do. Bet he didn't anticipate people forking out 600 for a matching refurb.
Go back to the source. Pay the increase. The return of the unissued Chinese type 56 is long overdue.

That was a good idea. Thank you.

It looks like hit and miss on what a guy gets. I'm glad I bought my fill many years ago.

 

[EL34/6L6]

More than half of them have look to have that matte gray commercial looking bolt carrier as well.

A mix match of parts most likely.
