hi i am a 78 year old VN ARMY vet, trained with a M14 in basic training at fort ord ca in 1967. got a brand new M16 issued to me in VN, yes full auto can be fun if you are not getting shot at. Hobbies are Mustle cars from the 60s, anything with a V8 engine in it. About 10 years ago i pretty much sold most of my C&R guns and ammo because CA is such a anti gun state to live in.Wish i kept my 2 mosin PU snipers [ real ] but i did not. My other hobbie was motorcycles . sport bikes and a few HDs. But at 78 i figured it was time to move on.
So i needed something to do and figured i would get a few C&Rs Never sold my trusty 1967 type 56 and still have a lot of Wolf ammo for it. just bought a new Polish AK and love it. Also bought a VZ 24 cuzz it is just as good as a K98 and was only 500 bucks.
My best VN buddy has a VN bring back SKS with his paper work. his son will get it some day.

Welcome home, and welcome to the SKS Files! Feel free to post pictures of your SKS if you feel inclined to do so.
Consider encouraging your buddy to join the Files and posts some pictures and a story of his bring-back SKS too. Milsurps with known history are quite rare and interesting!
