In the process of liquidating a large chunk of my collection, figured i would share a few pictures of the more uncommon ones before they are gone.
Factory 979 with fiberglass stock, as received several years ago.

Very nice! We simply never see these /979\ carbines here in the states. Very few of them recorded in our S/N lists too. thumb1

Here is a pic of the serial number, only thing that was matching was the (stamped) trigger mech.

Yeklop-

Thanks for sharing!

I don't recall ever having seen one from this arsenal. I didn't even recognize the arsenal number in the title.

Are you in Canada?

I had a Chinese SKS in a fiberglass stock like that back in the mid 1990's.

I don't remember the arsenal, think it was /26\ but not sure. As I recall, it was early Century Arms import marked on the barrel, and was all matching except the top cover.

I sold it a number of years ago, wish now I had kept it.
