Complete SKS Teardown

[sta500rdr]

So I did my standard surplus firearm checks and finally chose one. The SKS I purchased is listed as "Very Good Condition" which seems to be true. Without a complete takedown you never really know. Everything seems tight and without major wear or corrosion. However, it seems to be completely douched in cosmoline. Does anyone have a guide or anything that shows a complete disassembly and re-assembly of an SKS?

i've got an sks, it's an incredibly simple design really you shouldn't have any trouble.
