SKS
More of a focus on the receiver, stripper clips and the stock. A professionally refinished SKS, though it’s hard to tell what nation of origin without seeing the rest of the rifle. Refinishing an SKS doesn’t necessarily hurt the value unless it’s something rare like an Albanian or Vietnam bring-back. Personally I think cleaning up the original stock is a much better alternative that what happens to most of them, being dropped into Tapco “tacti-cool” plastic stock sets.

7.92x57mm
More commonly known as 8mm Mauser. The ones in the picture are Turkish. You can see the “sickle & star” emblem on the headstamp in the third picture. Most of the surplus 8mm Mauser supply has dried up since very few if any nations still use the caliber for their military.
