These are authentic Vietnam Era Military Surplus Chinese Type 56 SKS rifles, manufactured at the #26 Jianshe Arsenal factory. This lot of rifles was stored in a neutral country for the last 20 years, so they are able to be imported and available to the public now! Unique, battle-worn characteristics define this classic SKS rifle as they have everything from wear marks, scars, and even some have amazing trench art etched into the wooden stock. These rifles were stored with heavy amounts of cosmoline in order to protect them from rust and other environmental factors over the decades. The rifles come complete with spiker-style bayonets, a ten-round box magazine, and adjustable iron sights.
These rifles will vary in condition. The image above represents a range of conditions that are common for these military turn-in SKS rifles. Each rifle is going to be sold as-is and we are not offering hand-picked selections for purchases. All rifles are complete and fully functional but will need to be cleaned thoroughly prior to usage.
***Grade 2 means they will come with additional scratches and dings but are still complete rifles and shootable once properly cleaned. Most Grade 2 rifles will have cracked or chipped stocks but are still serviceable without the cracks getting worse with normal use. These rifles are heavily discounted due to the condition of the stocks. The condition of the rifles reflect their battle history and storage. The metal components were very well preserved by the cosmoline, and the functionality will reflect that.
All of these rifles have been graded to reflect cracks in the stocks. These cracks are varying in nature from minor to some which will require repairs. However, no stocks are broken and the rifles are mechanically functional. We highly recommend having a professional gunsmith clean the rifle and inspect it prior to shooting.
Safety Notice:
These rifles will all need to be taken apart and cleaned thoroughly before firing. Also please remember that an SKS has a free-floating firing pin, which can cause slam fires if the firing pin is stuck in the outside position. A good rule that everyone should be following is “ALWAYS CHAMBER A FIREARM IN A SAFE DIRECTION”. This is especially important with an SKS as slam firing 10 rounds in an unsafe direction can be catastrophic. We recommend you have your rifle checked by a competent gunsmith before firing.
These rifles are already heavily discounted for the cracked stock and no discounts will be given for the cracks as these rifles are being sold as-is, they cannot be returned due to the cracks.
