Just brought home new baby, barrel is stamped mdl 56 7.62x39 cugir Romania. I was under the impression mod. 56 sks's where Norinco's. Is this gun Romanian or Chinese? All parts except bolt are matching. Any idea? thanks for any replies.

by the way how much did you pay for your rifle?

The Gooch :cool:
 
The romanian ones are also model 56's, copies of norincos. I have 2 roms, and a russian, both roms say mdl. 56 7.62x39 cugir Romania.:o
 
thanks for the responses, thru further research I discovered the Romo's where only made in years 56 57 and 58 . Mine is stamped 1958. Molon labe or other Romo owners what is the year stamped on your specific copy?
 
Mine is a "1958", same markings on the barrel. From what I understand these were made on Soviet machinery that was loaned to Romania after the Soviets stoped production. Great guns but the trigger pull on mine does not break clean and has a very long creep.
