I have a Russian SKS manufactured at Tula in 1953. These are seriously fun guns which are worth your bang for your buck (no pun intended). I had purchased it from Cabela's back in 2015 and only used non corrosive ammo. It's been stored correctly away from moisture and well lubricated. Its in great shape and doesn't have any rattle or loose parts. Asking $800 Shipping not included. Pick up in Calgary.
