26xx4720 is the serial number. Just had it out banging steel at 150 yds. It has a q stamped in after the serial number if that helps.
Sounds like a heluva shooter
What size plates?

Thanks for the info. Anyone know where I can get a front sight assembly to replace the One I have that the bayonet lug accidentally got broken off. Wink wink
Hello. I have a SKS that has been sitting in the back of my safe. I need some help with background and the value.
He just wants it for hisself
Its a ChiCom SKS it will shoot. I had one like that sans bayo lug, ended up liquidating it but still have a spiker with a bayo lug tucked away somewhere. Chinese never had much love of fit and finish but they work great and hit the target, some of their earlier stuff was every bit as good as Russian (e.g. polytech with milled trigger groups).

I am fortunate to have one that has the Chinese National Security Forces markings. It it one of the finest SKS rifles made. Of course, the Russians supplied the machinery in the plant and trained the Chinese to build them right. The finish on the stock wasn't the most durable, but the blueing and fit is excellent.
It is accurate, reliable, and just plain fun to shoot!
They didnt steal one and reverse engineer it like they did everything else they got?

The Chicoms is good at stealin
Agreed, it's a great design. Always wondered what would have happened if it had been factory made for a detachable mag from the start. As I understand it, it was Stalin himself who ordered the fixed mag, as he felt too many soldiers would lose the detachables. Gun forum info, who knows if it's accurate. But the only thing I don't like about the design is the firing pin being totally enclosed in that bolt block. Still such a good rifle and so much fun to shoot.
