So which oiler is correct alby?
That's what I was hoping to get a consensus on here,
LC. It seems like they were shipped over with whatever they felt like including, if anything, on accessories. Most of what I saw that were the
really used condition carbines came
in with old Chinese slings, or the remnants of one. (Chinese coil wire-type and the leather loop-type, included) I have yet to see an Alby chest rig that looks like it went through the same use as the rifle. They may be out there, just haven't seen them. I don't know what condition the sling is in that
MEBear bought, but I would imagine it must be pretty good. Does anyone have any Alby slings or chest rigs that look like they have been through the same use as the rifles they own? Just my own WAG here, but I'm thinking the importers went back after, or at least separately, buying the last few accessories that were left in what little warehousing there was? Again, just my own guessing here.
If I understand correctly, Tennessee Guns, Knox, TN, imported a large part of the Albanian SKS? (both of the Alby's that I have owned came through TG) Are they still in business? If so, does anyone do enough business with them to ask about these specifics? It would be interesting to talk to the actual buyers that walked through these warehouses, outhouses, whatever, buying up this surplus.
AIM Surplus also came up with a lot of NOS Alby parts. I think they still sell some, of what's left. Did they ever actually import or sell any Alby SKS?
