Won a early 50' transitional today, been looking for one for a while, hard one to find. Pics are good on this one so I will just link the auction so you all can get a preview.

90 pics?
I kind of feel like I got a little to up close and personal with your beautiful new score! I've had a new to me Yugo in my possession for three days and I don't know it that....carnally. :)
Gotta love that Ex-DDR wasn't mentioned, would have been nice if they threw a Liski in there, but reasonable prices result that way. thumb1
Congrats!
Thats a keeper for sure Carbine! clap1
I'm with Justin.... 90 pics!! :o
nice!!!!!!!!!!! have fun with it. thumb1
Nice Carbine, congratulations! I was able to see a few of the photos. It would take my old laptop three days to open all those photos!

chuckles1 Thats funny....yeah can you say over kill on the pics!! I guess I would rather have too many pics than not enough like is usually the case!! I think the liski thing is starting to get traction I don't see much talk about Ex-DDR in the auctions and things.

Yeah Danny I think photobucket will need another server after he posted all those pics rofl2
Nice score! thumb1
I'm glad someone here got it and it's fitting that our acknowledged SKS-45 expert collector snagged it 8) A killer price too for such a scarce version :o
great find!! even the op rod spring is early type!
Hey Carbine, Could you post some of the pics now that the GB link is dead. There aren't very many early 1950 SKSs around to reference. :)
