    Default Please help me identify my SKSs

    Can someone help me identify what model SKSs I have? Ive owned them for a while and have never shot them. So its time to go. Im looking for a value as well.

    I have
    -2 SKSs
    -2600 rounds of Wolf ammo
    -250 rounds of copper washed ammo. Headstamped 31 71. Ive been told its AP but after reading up on it im not sure if thats true
    -about 300 stripper clips
    -2 ak type 30-rd mags
    -13 cleaning kits that go in the buttstock
    -1 bigger(still small) cleaning kit
    -a couple misc other parts

    I do not have the bayonets or cleaning rods.

    I have more pics but can only upload 5. Let me know what else would help. Thanks

    Which one has the scope mount on it? My guess is the 2nd because it looks like the bayonet lugs have been removed. The rifle on too without the box mag takes standard AK mags or SKS duckbill 30 round mags?

    From the limited pictures it looks like the top is a Chicom missing its original mags and the 2nd if that's the one with the scope mount might be a Farmers Friend Navy Arms import that's missing its impossible to find scope, mount, and Bi-pod. Does it have a Navy Arms import mark?

    They both look like Chinese commercial imports. More info here

    Definitely both Chinese commercial but the one with the mount might be more then the typical commercial import.

    Ballpark values right now:

    Basic SKS in fair to good condition: $400-500 depending on how quick you want to sell. Anything under $400 you'll get a bite within a day.

    7.62x39 steel case - 30-33 cents per round

    Worth more only to someone who has a "unicorn" scope mount that fits the rail on the receiver.

    These unicorn scope mounts you speak of, what might their value be?

    Regardless if one has the mount/scope or not people will pay a bit more for it if it's in fact import marked by Navy Arms as a Farmers Friend, same goes for the Cowboys companion model.

    A minimum of $300.00 but I bet an auction could easily bring more these day's. A complete Farmers Friend or Cowboys companion with all components and the wood crate will bring $1600-$2000 easily depending on condition.
