Title: SKS crate markings
Post by: newchi on January 28, 2017, 01:51:48 PM
Just wondering if the markings on an sks crate mean anything interesting, or does it just say sks qty 10 this way up in Russian?

Good question...  most of us down here haven't gotten a good look at a Russian crate on all four sides etc..  I think you need to send me one for inspection.   wink1

This is what i know so far.
56-A-231 means SKS

I am sure somehow, eventually, perhaps, унй-2 is going to mean ukraine somewhere.  Maybe.
