Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In 1956, Russia ended production of the SKS rifle at the Tula Arsenal. The Russians shipped the tooling to China along with technical advisors, who helped set up the manufacturing and training of the Chinese workers at Jianshe Arsenal (aka Factory 26). Factory 26 rifles have a reputation of being the best manufactured with the highest quality control of all Chinese SKS rifles. Most SKS Chinese rifles in the Vietnam War came from Factory 26. This is a Factory 26 Chinese SKS rifle Cal. 7.62x39. The rifle has all stamped matching external parts: receiver, bolt, receiver cover, bolt carrier, magazine, and trigger guard.
The SKS was widely exported and was also produced by some former Eastern Bloc nations as well as China, where it was designated the "Type 56", East Germany as the Karabiner S, and North Korea as the "Type 63". The SKS is currently popular in the civilian surplus market in many countries, including the United States, Canada, and New Zealand. It was one of the first weapons chambered for the 7.62×39mm M43 round, which was also used later in the AK-47.
The SKS has a conventional layout, with a wooden stock and rifle grip. The SKS is a gas-operated weapon with a spring-loaded bolt carrier and a gas piston rod that works the action via gas pressure pushing against them. Also, it has a "tilting bolt" action locking system. The SKS is shorter and less powerful than the semi-automatic rifles that preceded it, such as the Soviet SVT-40. However, the SKS has a 4-inch longer barrel than AK-series rifles, which replaced it; as a result, it has a slightly higher muzzle velocity.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
