sks rifle

I just picked up a very clean Chinese SKS which appears to be military with the three Chinese characters/letters that indicate Type 56 and a serial number of 18031079. It has the triangle stamp with the factory identifier stamp of /16\. Most SKS threads say that only the /26\ factory stamp can...

I stopped at a gun shop on the way home form a road trip this week once back in VT and found a nice Norinco SKS (synthetic with folding stock). Now I don't really know much about an SKS. I have a mini 30 and an WASR AK but am always looking for more assault rifles for when the zombies come...

Thinking of paring down my firearms (to buy more!). I have a chinese and a russian SKS that I am considering parting with. Both are in excellent condition (read safe queens). What would a fair asking price be in today's market? Thanks in advance!

Well, it looks like I might just be getting my first semi auto rifle soon, a mint, pre ban, Norinco sks, all matching, etc...This will be my first semi auto center rifle, and I'm just wondering a few things... 1: What parts should I stock up if I ever need to depend on this rifle to be my...

Gotcha! Made ya look! :D:

I recently found a pre-owned Russian SKS with a dark wood stock and a bayonet. Asking price is $250.00. Deal, no deal or haggle?
