Notes: Found right here on SKS-Files, user RatedZ! "Gun was traded in towards another gun years ago. I am the owner of it now, IIRC I paid $125 for it. All numbers match. I typically only collect /26\ rifles but never had seen this arsenal at the time, and for the price I paid I kept it for a good shooter."
