I have searched around on several sites. Was just seeing if any Ingo-ers can help shed some light with their personal experience with their SKS.
I'm nearly certain it was made at the 0135 arsenal so pinpointing a specific date may be impossible.
It may be a commercial model.
The stock is milled to allow for the scope bracket mounting plate on the receiver. So that makes me think that it is an original stock.
I have a Chinese SKS that I'm trying to figure out when it was made.
I tried the Google route but didn't have any luck.
It appears to have an original side scope mount, But the scope is not original.
All of the numbers match with the exception of the magazine well.
The 0135 before the...
It's an awesome gun in every way. The trigger is what sold me.
I have bought and ended up selling several guns over the years after finding something I liked better, but this one is a keeper.
TopDog Thanks for the offer. I bought a PPQ a few days ago. I am very happy with it so far. I may pick up a VP9 in the future if the right deal comes along.
I was leaning toward the VP9. But after handling both at my local LGS multiple times, I pulled the trigger on the PPQ.
I'm very happy with it so far. :rockwoot:
In a perfect world, I would buy both. But since that's not possible at the moment, I'm leaning toward the VP9.
Maybe in the future I'll run across a deal on a PPQ and have both.
AceDerringer I appreciate the offer. as well as the comments from everyone else.
I'm in the market for a new 9mm handgun. My search has come down to either the Walther PPQ 9mm or the HK VP9. Both seem like great guns and I am having a tough time deciding between the two. I've handled both at my LGS. They are in the same price range and have great reviews. I don't think...
I recently inherited this old revolver.
It has a stamped logo near the grip with what appears to be an RA.
The barrel has "38 long cartridge" on it and the serial number is on the butt. No model number anywhere.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have a Shield 40 as well. It's a great gun. As stated before it's a little snappy, but totally manageable.
I have shot a friends 9mm Shield, but I like the extra little thump that the 40 has.
I have always had good luck with UPS & USPS. But Fedex in my area sucks! Their drivers couldn't find my house if it bit them on the butt. Fedex has delivered my packages to the wrong address several times. I absolutely hate dealing with them.
My house is on the runway flight path of the former 181st fighter wing in Terre Haute.
One day, two F-16's flew low over the house and rattled the windows. My daughter asked "What was that!". I told her that is the sound of Freedom!
I really miss seeing them fly over on a daily basis.
