Russian SKS45 long thread.

I posted this elsewhere, but hey this is the longest SKS thread in the universe so here's my contribution to keep it goin' :)

Received my SKS, pretty regular refurbed; Tula 1953. Poor shellac job (uneven, and some bare spots), but other than that, everything else is ok for me. Electropenciled number on gas tube. I wonder about that; is it electropenciled because stamping a number on it would damage it? As soon as I get darker shellac than the white stuff I have right now, the stock will look better.

Just got my hand-select from frontier. It's re-furbed but still has the original stock, no paint still blued, everything matches.. the bayonet is still shiny. Excellent condition.. I am very happy. Ammo came with the package :)
 
I drove around Calgary today looking for any shipments of SKS' and ammo. There are 2 places that are not sponsors here that are waiting for their shipments. I found ammo at the other places, one was $200/1120rnds and the other one must be sniffing solvent. They are asking close to $300/1120rnds.
