How many sks rifles were imported to the US?
Good question. Unfortunately, we don't have an answer- they came from several nations at different times. One estimate is that there are between 5-7 MILLION SKS carbines in the US.
How many sks rifles were manufactured?
Literally, millions. There were made by Russia, China, and many of the Soviet allies. While more AK47s have been made, there are a LOT of SKS rifles out there. No exact number are available.
Could a sks rifle be bought in Vietnam by army soldiers?
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.
What ammunition does the Russian sks fire?
7.62x39mm, which is used in all SKS rifles (aside from the former Soviet Union, the SKS was also manufactured in China, Vietnam, North Korea, Albania, the former Yugoslavia, East Germany, and Romania).
How can you find US importers of Chinese SKS rifles?
you can find sks rifle at virtually any gun shop but searching for a Chinese version may be a little more difficult.
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.
What year is SKS D24139169?
You do not say who made your SKS.That helps and usually the russian made SKS rifles will have the year of production stamped on the receiver cover.I am not so sure on the Norinco made ones.
Where is kbi sks imported from?
KBI imported Soviet SKS rifles, but they may have come from other Soviet client states, such as Poland, as a means of circumventing the Clinton ban on guns imported from Russia.
What is a m21 sks rifle worth?
No country which manufactured the SKS gave it the nomenclature of M21. The only country which applied an "M" number which I can think of offhand was Yugoslavia, who designated theirs M59, and M59/66 for rifles which had the 22mm grenade launcher fitting. Yugo SKS rifles can go from $150 - $500, with the latter price being for an unfired, unissued rifle. SKS rifles in general can go from $100 - $1300, depending on the exact model and country of manufacture (Vietnamese and North Korean rifles have the highest value, being the most rare). You can send photos of the rifle and markings to my email (listed on my profile page), and we can determine the exact model and value from there, if you wish.
How old is my army issued sks?
First off, you didn't specify which army, nor did you specify the country of manufacture - the SKS was manufactured in the former Soviet Union, Romania, East Germany, North Korea, Vietnam, the Peoples' Republic of China, the former Yugoslavia, and Albania. A lot more information would be needed in order to determine this. Bear in mind that not all SKS rifles manufactured saw military service - many of the M59/66 rifles were never issued, and China continues to manufacture the SKS for the commercial civilian market.
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 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.
