Title: As Good As It Gets Ghost
Post by: Loose}{Cannon on January 17, 2015, 06:33:35 PM

Was talking to Tex a while ago and he told me he was looking for a ghost. Knowing Bob, I knew it had to be a good one. Few days went by and I spotted her on GB and Tex snatched it up. Hands down nicest Ghost I have seen in the entire IO batch from Albania.

Just posting pics for him... surely he will be along shortly. Shown along side his Chinese Letter gun.

Thanks Guys:
I truly appreciate you checking out these great old Battle Rifles. I must give Loose Cannon the credit for finding this rifle for me on Gunbroker for me, as I had told him that I was in search for one of these early Arsenal /26\ Ghost rifles for my collection. I am trying to put together a complete set of Arsenal /26\ SKS's while I am still kicking, but time is against me due to my age (75), but it does give me a reason to keep on kicking. I must give Loose Cannon all the credit and his outstanding Website on these great old SKS's and the sharing of info to all the old and new collectors that are interested in these GREAT Old Battle Rifles.

Got to give a thumbs up on a seriously nice score. She's a beauty!

If you complete any SKS variant collection, you can always start on another...you could live to well over 100 if you just keep trying. :)

As advertised, that's about as nice as ghosts get.

Looks like an early T53 sling there.
