I have 2 , what I have been told are, "D" model paratrooper sks's.. They were both factory machined to take the AK mag's. Anyone know exactly what they are, and about what they are worth? Both have thumbhole wood stocks, short barrels and very good condition Norinco's.

Thanks!!

    I believe that the ones with the thumbhole stocks are Model "M's" rather then "D's". "D's" are the standard military configuration Norinco SKS, with full length barrel and provision for bayonet.

    That said, any standard factory Norinco, that can take AK Mags,( not some shade tree bubba gunsmith's rework. Should be at least a $500 gun nowadays, with all the panic buying/hoarding going on. I had a chance to buy one for $400 last summer, and have been kicking myself in the butt for not getting it.
