How can you tell the difference between a Chinese and a Russian SKS rifle?
Is it marked with Chinese characters or in the Cyrilic alphabet? <><><> As above. In addition, MOST Russian SKS rifles had blade style bayonets. MOST Chinese rifle had a spike type bayonet. But marlings are the defintive answer.
Can the Russian sks use 223 ammo?
No. ALL SKS rifles - Soviet, Chinese, Albanian, Yugoslav, Chinese, Romanian, N. Korean, N. Vietnamese and East German - are chambered for the 7.62x39 M1943 cartridge, and can facilitate only that cartridge.
What is value of Chinese SKS rifle?
In the vicinity of $200 for a basic Type 56 carbine, up to $500 - $600 for some of the more 'exotic' models, like the paratrooper carbine, and detachable magazine SKS D and SKS M rifles.
Can you find pictures of a Chinese SKS?
You should be able to find plenty on Google Images, Bing, Flickr/Flickrivr, etc. The Chinese models are either the Type 56 Carbine, or you can search for "SKS-M" or "SKS-D" if you're looking for the models which use a detachable AK magazine.
Which weapon did the north Vietnam use to fight in Vietnam war?
The Kalashnikov AK47 and the SKS rifles, 82mm Chinese mortars, 120mm Soviet Rockets.
What is an sks worth?
Depends on country of origin, and which part of the country you're in. I've seen laminate stock Soviet SKS rifles go for well over $400. I've seen the same for unissued condition Yugoslav M59/66 rifles. You might be able to find a basic Chinese Type 56 carbine for $200 - $250 or an issued condition M59/66 for about the same. However, some Chinese models command a premium for their rarity - particularly the paratrooper carbines, and detachable magazine SKS-M and SKS-D rifles, which can cost into the $500 range. The Albanian SKS is pretty rare, and might for anywhere from $300 - $450. The most expensive ones will be the ultra rare Vietnamese, East German, and North Korean variants, which typically command prices upwards of $1000 whenever someone who has one decides to sell it.
Is Russian sks the same as Chinese sks?

Some SKS rifles were brought back... most of them were manufactured in East Germany or China, as the Vietnamese made SKS rifles were and are extremely rare. They were either captured or sold/traded for favours to other soldiers in-country.
How old is a Chinese sks?
They began production of the Type 56 carbine (the Chinese designation for the SKS) in 1956, and production (for the civil market) continues to the present day.
