Hello all. Id like to share some pictures of my 1959 Romanian SkS. The only thing that don't match is the stock which has no numbers at all. Some of the pics are of the rifel still in cosmoline. So if you smell something funny, well thats what it is. Like to thank my Buddy Double O also known to many as Old Outlaw for guiding me to this cool site. :P Lots of good info here with Dragos knowledge on the EX DDR's, :) Boomer's Russian sKs monthly sales average, well, I hope he will share with us here, :D Sheepdog's talent on how to control Old Outlaw when he get's out of hand. :no: And last but not least The Moose, Also known as the Godfather of the SKS. 8-) He has probubly forgoten more about these fine specimens then ill ever know. :roll: But we keep learning, everyday. Hope you all Have a Merry Christmas. Thanks for looking BAMA

Nice looker. Most Romanian stocks are Beech, with a very few Elms. I'm not sure which wood that one has???

And is that you, KK? :wink:

The Moose is omnipotent. 8-)

And I'd still be up in the air on that stock. It has some of the nice swirl features of beech, but the grain seems too distinctive.

A little Beech in the wrist, but darn Martin, that sure looks like Elm for the most part. I have one M59 that has a tiny sign of some swirl, but it is not Beech. That sure looks like a nice Elm to me. Course, if ole Boss Hog would quit fishing those stripers and clean his rifle, perhaps he could tell. :lol: :lol:

There were 5 or 6 left on their count down counter. I hit the switch and waaa-lawwww here it is. I LUCKED OUT. They were 299.00 + ship + FFL. Now its your RARE Romy's turn to show off :wink: ewya ident-da or-fa et-ga id-day ew ya ? lol ay

Please don't feed the animal. This JD Hogg is
far worse than the original. But I happen to know for sure this one owns a few guns here and there. Right BAMA? :lol:

I just want to see that 53 Izhevsk again. Hmmmmmm
