I for one will just be happy when I finally find one and have the cash to pay for it. Looks like I will be stuck with a Norinco though.

I personally prefer Chinese Para's made from older SKS' with all milled parts.

My favorite SKS is my only SKS, a 1973 "Yugo" M59/66A1.
It's a little front heavy like all Yugo's, but it's a great shooter.

I am collecting serial numbers and factory codes for my research these must be the full number and factory code for any value no names are attached the the info . This helps me keep track of when these guns show up and any new factory codes Photos are the best as shown in the attachments. My email is hbearse@comcast.net if you want to contribute

I think this is my new favorite

"K" series non refurb in original laminate stock.

But the one I shoot all the time lately is my factory 625 Type 56, because I don't care what happens to it if, for example, I didn't get to clean it for a week after shooting or something.

I like the M59/66 A1, and not only because it is the only SKS I have...

I like the little things, like the shutoff and night sights. Wish I could get a training grenade and some blanks to mess around with, but haven't seen any.

my yugo 59/66a1 because they were the last ones made. i was able to find a new never fired one for 350 bucks. i like all the bells and whistles on the a1. only real knock on the yugo is no chrome barrel. ok so i guess i can only put 10,000 rounds threw it :big shock:

[quote="Drago"]That's a hard question. Some of mine are "prettier" than others, but some other's are more rare. I'd have to say, since I'm an Ex-DDR SKS collector, that my '49 Ex-DDR is my favorite,.....

Drago, i sent ya an email. Please respond if you have time

I only have three; two Tulas and one PLA. As far as the quality of the rifles the Chinese is the best. The one I like the most is a '52 Tula, because it was made in such a damn good year.

Funny thing is that I got a Serbian practice grenade, and a bunch of blanks, since then.

My favorite one is an easy one, as I only have one SKS right now. It's a Sino-Soviet/Sino-Albanian Sterile (Ghost), with some stock graffiti on it. I love the been there, done that look of it.
