Santa rode a big brown truck this year and made an early delivery over the weekend!
These came from century. Generally they are beat to hell especially the stocks. Sadly lots of cracks. Should be a fun time cleaning these things up.
Though beat up, the 2nd one out of the box was COVERED in carvings. There are more on the fore end I can't make out yet, but I will get some pics of those also up later.
This rifle has 3 southern Albanian cities carved into it:
Vlora
Tepelena
Fieri
Tepelena and Fieri are carved twice. The carvings on the butt stock contain the dates: 1991-1992 for Tepelena and 1992 For Fieri
A second chinese sks had a Russian Tula Stock and the year 1986 carved into it.
Its no Iron Maiden, but it gives us a pretty good clue when and where these were in use.
