Good lookin' carbine...Carbine! Non-refurb you guys are referring to means it is not a factory refinish?
That carbine is older than I am and looks better to boot.

You would be correct, never had any parts replaced or refurbished, all original.

Nice one Tony
Thanks 06, I have another one to post I think you will like but I ran out of light this afternoon to take some good pics, Dang bowhunting.
What's up with the sight slider halfway down the ladder? Does that thing actually shoot that low?
I love the Type 1 bolt and original spring loaded pin too. That's an early '50 for sure.
Beautiful example. Nothing like my old 50'. Does this one have the non-chrome lined barrel also?
This is one of the hardest Tula series (Dated) that is in original condition compared to the "1951" dated model. I think the "1950"series right behind the "1949" Tula which I have only seen one picture of what looks to be a original condition here in the States about 8 years ago on gunboards. I think it sold on Gunbroker for around $2500 at that time.
The 1950 original would be #2 on my Russian list, and is almost impossible to find, thank God I was lucky enough to find one in West Virginia at a reenactment show about 2006. This is a Great find and a beautiful condition and very lucky to find it in this beautiful condition.
Tex
Thanks Tex, It is one that came out of Oregon, I bought this and a lee enfield from the same guy. I am very greatful to have found it. I would love to find a 90 deg. gas block 1950 someday I think they are pretty cool also.
I got real lucky and got a 50 with the 90 degree block about a year ago, I have been tracking 49 and 50's with the 90 and only seen 7 of them --unfortunately mine is a light refurb but it is definitely different.

You should post some pics, would be neat to see!

Yeah Crazyone...what Carbine said!!
SHIZEN !! I stand corrected and apologize. When I was buying SKS Russians a year ago the procedure was for my son to read out the serial number and any features and I would enter them on my inventory and they were placed in my safe. Since it was in the back I have not dug it out since then but I guess I have to go all through them again!! It is 1950--refurbed -clean with early features such as the loop in the cover pin and the spring loaded firing pin,"DDR marking" .
I think old mineral oil will remember it !! I guess that means there is only 6 that I have seen--
I was lucky enough to score one of those early 1950 square gas block suckers last year for $250,,but ya its refurbed but still nice. :)(http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z147/jimtoronto/20140813_155927_zps0loq4pck.jpg) (http://s190.photobucket.com/user/jimtoronto/media/20140813_155927_zps0loq4pck.jpg.html)
