I recently got a SKS my dad got 10+ years, ago what is it?

the serial number on the frame says RB 3811 1960 but the bolts #RB4987 with another 7 an inch below that. it came with a eurolux 4x25 scope and a black synthetic heavy as he// Monte Carlo style stock. but the gun is out of the stock it and also has no magazine.

So what do i need to do get this shootable?
what are some good but affordable modifications/stocks/recoil buffers/sights i can equip on this guy

*edit* I do believe it is either a Albanian or Romanian. I was also told it is a "non-SKS, sks" what does that mean I Google-ed but never found a decent answer**

any other pictures that i can add to help?

Take it to a gun smith and let him put it in shape for you! It sounds like you are not up on guns!

I know a fair bit about how to strip it and operate it.I pulled it out of stock to get it cleaned up and the serial. This month I acquired three new guns, A .308 FNar, an SKS, And a Mini 14. All my other guns are either Bolt, lever or pump. I just got on this forum to get answers to the questions I don't know about the SKS and Mini and ways to get better performance out of them.

Thanks Dstra I took it out of the stock and didn't see any spring so ill start looking for one. what is a good site to pick the springs up, and what is its exact name spring so that I know i have the right part? And thank you for the info about the magazines. Im guessing ill be sol on finding anything reasonable
I left it out of the stock because I really don't like the Monte Carlo stocks. Sorry I didn't clarify that. I want to find a more compact stock like a bull-pup or folder, Iv been searching the site and internet for options do you have any recommendations?
