Serial #: 0103  Albanian SKS 7.62x39mm semi-auto rifle still packed in cosmoline. The Albanian SKS is the rarest of the SKS rifles. Mechanically, the Albanian version is identical to the Chinese Type 56. It differs in a few minor details such as a longer stock and handguards that completely cover the gas tube; a hook shaped bolt handle; Curved profile to the magazine body; two trapdoors in the buttstock and a shorter spike bayonet.  This rifle appears to be in very good condition, still packed in the cosmoline.
