Albanian SKS question
I try to avoid questions such as this, but as the market has fluctuated these last few years I will pose this question: Is an Albanian SKS worth more "in the grease," or as a specific firearm?
I've two SKS's, A Yugoslavian M59 and an Albanian, mostly "in the grease." I'd like to clean it up and shoot it, but I don't know. Opinions?

We found so many of those in Yugo
, all nations but mostly local... Every hay stack had a couple cases under it. I don't even see them being worth what people pay now let alone more because it's in the grease...

The Yugo
is just a nice rifle. It's been fired. The Albanian, a bit more rare. Maybe I'll just clean it up. I used to have seven, but kept these two.

Yes, they were well made and beautifully blued. They weren't made for midgets and shot fine. Should be a good useable example.

An Albanian SKS is going to command good ducats regardless of grease or no. They are rare, PAX

A "B" or "C" code Yugo
M59 may be worth good bank too. About the same as an Albain, they're pretty scarce as well. PAX
