    Royal Tiger SKS's are back in stock. Shows 119 available.

    I got a "Ghost" gun. No /26\ marking. Quite fitting for a purchase arriving Halloween weekend. Other then a broken stock it's pretty nice.

    While I can't say this for certain, the "ghost guns", as you put it, are looking more and more like they are Sino-Soviets made with Russian parts that came along with the tooling from the Tula arsenal. We'll probably never know for sure, but the more examples that I see, the more it appears that the ones without the Jianshe arsenal cartouche (triangle 26) tend to have the traditional Russian stock configuration--often with matching numbers on the stock, and the early models with the Jianshe arsenal cartouche tend to have the "cavalry style" rear sling mount.

    There are, of course, exceptions. These things spent a lot of time in Albania, and parts on many of them got switched around, repaired in the field, etc.

    I think they are later sanitized ones for export sale that got mixed up with earlier ones that were properly marked witht he /26\ that were sold. Thats my theroy.
