Yooper John's SKS - Battle rifle of many nations

SECTION  31:  In this section I will try to show odd markings or unusual s/n or just odd versions of the SKS. The only purpose of this page is to help make the collector aware that differences do occur and about anything could be possible. These are ALL from my personal observations and not from any books.
