I bought my Chinese Norinco SKS circa1993, (shown in my profile pic).
All serial numbers match on the buffer cover, receiver, bolt, magazine and stock. 100% bluing except at the barrel tip where the spike bayonet slides on.
It has the original strap, cleaning rod and the cleaning kit is still in the stock.
I was told when I bought it the barrel and bore was chromed.
The stock is like new with a few dings but no scratches or wear.
The serial number next to the Chinese markings starts with 25. The research I have done says you add the 25 to the original manufacturing date of 1956. If this is correct it was manufactured in 1981 so she was 12 years old when I bought her.
The picture shows it with an after market buffer cover with scope rail and a cheap American scope on it. I have the original cover with the matching serial number stamp.
Less than 300 rounds fired through her. Shoots like a champ. Very accurate out to 200 yards. I have hit targets consistently out to 400 yards if there is no wind with a bullet drop of 30” +\-
I want to sell her for the right price. Any thoughts on the value and/or where I can take her to be appraised?
