thanks moving target for the best russian SKS i have ever seen .
- Thread starter Curtton
- Start date
Spoke with Ed several weeks ago while placing my order for an unissued and he assures me I will be getting what I am looking for because he spend an entire day hand picked his 80+ sks from his supplier prior to have them pinning the mag.
I have yet seen mine (supposedly its on its way) but so far by looking at pics posted by others who got from Ed seems promising, should know within the next few days!
Will do. It's going to be a suspenseful four hours waiting until they open, though.
Congrats!
Don't worry Ed's standard is beyond most others I think your "not pristine" is still much better than others "mint condition"
Let us know when you receive it!
I was chatting with my favorite bartender last week and I told him about the beautiful SKS I received from Moving Target.
He wanted one so I gave him Ed’s phone number and he ordered one.
Well, I stopped by the pub for a pint yesterday after work and he told me he received his rifle.
He said it was mint, not a mark on it, all matching serial numbers, but he wanted to know what the diamond with an arrow in it meant.
You mean a diamond or a triangle, oh I guess its a triangle he says.
I almost had a heart attack.
Triangle with an arrow!!!!!
That’s what I asked Ed for weeks ago, but he said he didn’t have any when he phoned me.
I told my friend he was a very fortunate fellow and to take a couple photos of his rifle and email them to me today.
I just received his very fuzzy photos, the silly new Canadian immigrant, that’s not a triangle, it’s called a star.
Alls right with the world again.

Ha! He rooked you!
He is probably very knowledgeable about SKS's (and how rare the unissued Izzy's are) and was just messing with your head.

Heres the ones I picked up from Moving Target. I had ordered refurbs as i thought they were out, but they called me back and they had Unissued ones. All the numbers match. Excellant condition. Have only fired the bottom one. Years from top to bottom are 1953, 1954, 1954, unknown and 1954. All Tula's.
Edgar and the other fellow at MT were great to deal with and I recommend em highly.
I recieved my Shipment from Ed at Moving Target, ---and I was not Disappointed !! --- Two Unissued 1954 Tula,s. Both in Very Good Condition !! Great wood, No refurbing marks, of any kind, Gold Bayo,s , Bores perfect, very bright. Numbers all match , bluing very good, and all the Goodies of course !!! Two Very Nice Rifles !!! I am More than Happy with the Rifles !!! Thank you Ed !!! ------ Soory I can,t share any pictures at this time, will try to get them posted later. Ed and the team at Moving Target , " I Highly Recommend " !!!!!
