Thanks for sharing the pictures Walt.Miller Tyme wrote:The Albanian is much rarer and pricer than the Russian, IIRC only about 5,000 survived the scrappers torch and where imported. The e hand guard is longer, they have a Chinese style spiker bayonet, they have an AK style cocking handle, and 2 pockets in the butt stock for cleaning kits, and the magazine is a different shape I believe.
The only rarer SKS's are the East German, North Vietnamese, and North Korean versions.
That Albanian SKS looks just great.
Maybe I'll find one myself in the future.
I'll just keep hunting for one.
