Got it today.....Wow. Not as bad some we've seen with the sand and grit, but still had quite a bit...Also had a piece of cloth rolled up in the buttstock.
Couldn't find any serial numbers on the stock and it is not cut for the spike....just the blade. Here are the pics.

Very nice... Can we add your serial to the IC list?
The stock is def a replacement...with the white carrier, it would have had a standard stock.
And for gods sakes.... Dont clean it

Yes...absolutely....I already did RM's survey as well. That is what i figured from the get-go....hand guard looks to be original style anyway...and NO....I am not cleaning it...I dumped the sand back into the buttstock!! :)
This serial actually expanded the top end by 2,200 serials
very nice, that was a very good buy thumb1 I hope one day to add one of those to my collection. I always seem to find something else though.
Good for you clap1 It's very nice, I hope to score one of these myself someday.

Do you think that is the case on all the stocks that have the markings? I looked those up....and you're right...it sure looks like those letters as well....but when i look at the numbers list....it looks like those as well...Ya'll have been looking at these a lot longer than I have.....Can't we just have a guy who was there and knows!! :)
That C shaped symbol is not a #......
All the other markings I have seen on other guns were without a doubt numbers...
They're letters, & there's a first for everything.
hey padams, your op says you can't find a s# in the stock.
found it:
(http://i1324.photobucket.com/albums/u604/mspeth23/image_zpsmjrnhx8o.jpeg)
That was taken off of a Russian, it is not the supplied sterile lammy that the blued carrier guns come with. That's why it's not cut for a spike either.
Honestly, I think these, taken off a Russian in the mid-east are much cooler.
It's possible this is why the rack marking is different than the norm as well. Could have been a Russian supplied at a different time, or different nation than our chicoms were originally. Mid.East is a mixing pot, so it obviously found its way on a Chinese gun eventually, and that's not surprising.
No kidding.....I didn't even see that..sheeez. I was wondering why it didn't have the double cut for the bayo. I thought I had looked it over pretty well. It would be awesome to know the true history on this rifle....People have shown Russian captures as well...yes?
Yes... M08 and Tex have russian ICs
Nice.....I'd like to find one of those someday. Damn sks's and your addictive goodness....... :P
Bet that's toilet paper rolled up in the stock, you know...emergency use only!

2 of my I.O. Ghosts had a piece of what appears to be heavy canvas/tow strap in the butt. I figured for cleaning but...don't know. They appeared to have been in there with a cleaning kit up against them, for a very very long time.

Dont listen to the ignorance elsewhere. Century DID import several types of guns from Egypt but the sks was NOT one of them. Egypt NEVER received small arms from China. They did however from Russia.
Anyone who ACTUALLY RESEARCHES the facts will easily find this information. The people of old days who claimed these guns to have come from Egypt saw arabic rack numbers and made an uneducated decision they 'must' be from Egypt because guns from Egypt i.e. Rasheed, Hakim etc also had the rack numbers.
I actually talked to one of the gentlemen that worked for a distributor that originally put out the 'Egypt' theory and he completely reversed his opinion after seeing the recent IC evidence and the lack of Egypt evidence.
This is an even worse scenario then the 'ex-ex-ddr' BS....
Import relations with Egypt dont mean jack... We have an even more prominent arms import history with Israel. thumb1

ISRAEL PUTS CAPTURED ARMS ON DISPLAY - NYTimes.com (http://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/12/world/israel-puts-captured-arms-on-display.html)
Quote''In the terrorists hands,'' he said, referring to the P.L.O., ''we found huge amounts in great varieties of arms and vehicles made in 14 or 15 countries, including Hungary, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, North Korea, China, Japan, Belgium, France, Britain, West Germany and the United States.''
Quote''We took out 200 truckfulls of arms from one depot alone in the Fakhani section of West Beirut,'' he said. At one point during the war, 100 trucks a day were arriving with captured equipment.
''The biggest surprise was the incredible amounts,'' the officer said. ''If I had 35,000 men I could line them up and give each one a rifle or automatic weapon. It was a huge army, armed to the teeth. I don't know how they got the stuff.''
