[QUOTE="bsmith918, post: 2397804, member: 13901"] I recently purchased a I.O. imported SKS that was sold as a gunsmith special through Royal Tiger. It turned out to be an all matching Sino-Soviet with a really great "battlefield pick up" look, but it had enough cosmoline on it to keep a whole crate of mosins preserved for 100 years. I am guessing that they were dipped in boiling cosmoline since the barrel was filled solid. It took a pretty decent amount of time to get it cleaned up, but it did the job of rust prevention well. If you want one, go for it and don't look back. [/QUOTE]
