Good question. Unfortunately, we don't have an answer- they came from several nations at different times. One estimate is that there are between 5-7 MILLION SKS carbines in the US.

What year and what is the approx value of a type 56 Chinese sks serial 7105019 marked on the trigger guard also?

$200 - $300 for a basic Type 56. Even though importation has ceased, they're not particularly rare (especially as NORINCO is still manufacturing them) and don't have the collector value of other SKS rifles. As for the year, NORINCO doesn't publish SN data. If it's in the US, then it would've been imported no later than 1993.

Can you find out if your sks was in a war or battle?

The SKS and AK-47 saw their "FIRST" full scale action against US Forces during the Vietnam War; 1961 thru 1973. In Vietnam, SKS's were replaced by the AK-47 by 1969. If the SKS was built prior to 1973 and has a US Government tag accompanying it as a "War Souvenir" then it is a "battlefield pick-up." All GI's bringing SKS rifles or K-54 pistols back from Vietnam had to have a tag on them. AK-47's could NOT be brought home as war souvenirs. Since the Vietnam War, the SKS's, AK-47's, etc. have been used by nearly every nation on earth and are common in the US. If the SKS in question is not a "Viet War Souvenir" then it will be difficult to trace it's combat history.

Firearms imported before the implementation of 922r are grandfathered in, yes. However, 922r went into effect in 1989 - not 1994, as so many people like to believe. Be aware of this before you assume you have a pre-922r rifle.
