Had this one for awhile. 100% matching. Its a gem but too nice for me to shoot. Will probably sell it in the near future.
Jaws2 ----- I have a couple Russian '52 SKS's too. I've shot one of them a few times (maybe 1 mag. full) but not the other. The one I have shot is dead on at 100 yds. I've had these two SKS's for almost 25 years and keep them in a safe dark place. My shooter SKS's are two Chinese pieces, one with a 16" barrel and folding stock I've had for 40+ years . The other is a std. SKS with wooden stock and regular length barrel . I do like the SKS rifles.Really nice ‘54’. I haven’t shot my ‘52’ either, I’ve got another for that. I’ll have to post the ‘52’ one day.
