[OldM60 Gunner]

I brought back an SKS Chinese factory 26 blade type, Made in 1963. I still have it and the capture paper. I may post it some time if this interests anyone.

The first rifle I ever bought was in middle school (1972) - a Vietnam captured SKS! Paid $90 at a gunshow from my paper route paycheck . SKS Ammo was a bitch to find back then and the rifles were rare.

My buddy bought a rock solid German G43 for the same price and a wartime surplus ammo tin of 8mm. We shot the crap out of that thing!

Love to see yours and hear the story

I have Chi Com SKS made in 1964 with the blade bayonet , I picked up a few back in 1988 - 90 for $69 - $99 each

these were all original Military surplus right out of the crate, some were used and some were never fired

I also have the Russian M44 Mosin Nagant with the folding spike bayonet , also very popular as a war trophy from the Vietnam War

the M44 and the SKS are nice examples of the weapons used by the VC / PAVN
