584077385   Chinese Type 56 SKS Vietnam Bring Back 1966 NR! - Chi-Com - Excellent - Factory 26 - Non Import -   24   $620.00    /26\   As-Issued   Fair   I'd have a hard time ponying up 6 bills for a very common SKS (albeit with a story and no papers) but some people don't.

588320693   Norinco SKS Like New   1   $500.00    /26\   As-Issued   Good   

587791333   1975 mfg SKS Type 56 Chinese Military Bring back   1   $499.00    [0138]   As-Issued   Good   Nice gun.  I'm very skeptical of a '75 build year gun (and an [0138] for that matter!) being a VN bringback though....

589334060   Chinese SKS Factory 26 7.62x39 All Parts Matching   1   $499.00    /26\   As-Issued   Good

592248484   Chinese Norinco SKS rifle   1   $400.00    DP   As-Issued   Good   Now *that* is a nice looking gun.

589462072   Chinese SKS Military About New in Factory Grease   15   $380.00    /326\   As-Issued   Good   

589449236   China Norinco SKS Brand New in Box with All   12   $375.00    /0404\   As-Issued   Very Good   Minus the missing bayo, this is an absolute beauty.  Very uncommon arsenal too.  Excellent buy @ $375.

590210350   Chinese Norinco SKS Semi-Auto Rifle 7.62x39   27   $351.00    /0223a\   As-Issued   Good   Now that is a very uncommon arsenal stamp.  Awesome!

591096989   1971 Norinco SKS (Jianshe arsenal #26)   10   $350.00    /326\   As-Issued   Good   Stock S/N seems huge to me and may be missing a leading zero, but all in all it's probably close enough to call it as-issued.  Nice gun.

591669051   SKS Norinco used   1   $299.00    /?5\   As-Issued   Good   Per the seller: " this is not remotely eligible for C&R. no reason to even ask if i'll transfer it to one." Hmm, I wonder how he knows that?  I'd say, being a year 17 rifle, it's eligible for C&R status in 2022.
