Just made a trade deal on a Squires-Bingham, the original manufacturer. My Glenfield M75 (I have 2) for his SB M16, other fella pays shipping for both guns  :) . I gotta stay out of forum marketplaces  ::)  PAX
The second rifle from the top is what swapped.

Russian SKS / Re: I Don't Know What Happened???

Will do upon inspection but I hope she's not an alien implant. I was so excited to finally get a reply back from the seller after 2 days, and not being Russian savvy, I forgot to ask about the mag. He said it's all matching numbers with the rear site is EPd. PAX

Nice one PAX!  I wonder if it could be a Canadian border hopper?  Look over the magazine carefully for weld remnants where the block would have been when you get her in.   thumb1

Russian SKS / I Don't Know What Happened???

Howdy Commie Lovers,

I don't know what's become of my will power. I've been trying to not buy any more guns...but I'm a sucker for a deal. This beautiful as issued no import stamp '51 Tula kinda jumped out at me, for less than half what I thought it was worth, only a month or so after the '54 light refurb. She's rough around the edges but should clean up wonderfully. Inbound from Oregon  8) PAX

Hello Fellow Plinkers,

I was checking out my WTS ad on Calguns and ran across this little contraption, RIA M1600 ARish .22lr clone from the '80s. I think I saw one once decades ago briefly. According to the web and a video, besides being weird and funky, they're accurate and very quiet. This unit came with two 10 round mags and 15s were available. I'm a sucker for a deal and the seller drove 65 miles one way for a hunnerd bucks  ::) Link to picts of the Pinoy AR. When it makes Kali bail, I'll take my own. PAX

Just came back from the FFL transfer and inspection. I'm happy it found a new home with me.

Thanks!  Figured it was a commercial mark.

Commercial gun, likely a scrub & refurbish.  The G4 has no relevance to the S/N and was marked long after the carbine left the factory. 

Here are a few more in the "12" commercial series, some with suffixes, some without.  Note that they all don't have the same font or font spacing, so despite having similar S/Ns, they may not be related to each other at all:
