Looking to sell my Norinco SKS in 7.62x39

This one came to me with a cool story. Apparently the uncle of the owner found it in a trunk of a car, in a river. The exterior confirms this because it was clearly underwater for a long time. However, the interior was still caked in cosmoline and the barrel is chrome lined, so it is functionally perfect and bore is in wonderful shape. Someone cleaned all the surface rust off, reblued, and put a new stock on it. Complete (other than stock) numbers matching. I am a gunsmith and did a full teardown and it is a safe shooter.

Meet at A Cut Above or J&B

These boating accidents rarely come back in such beautiful public displays!

Must have forgotten to put the pontoons on the car to make it a true boating accident

Yeah, I'd probably want to sell it, too. Who knows who it offed

Once it's transferred via an FFL one is insulated from any prior "offings".

I did a check on it as well as my own 4473 to take possession. It's good.

I wonder where you can get cosmoline locally these days. I plan to do a lot of fishing this year.
