No difference, but Yugo SKSs by nature are a little more robust so it may or may not drop in. I had a Chinese SKS that needed a mag once. I took another Chinese mag and it wouldn't fit Grabbed a Russian mag and it dropped right in. There is enough tolerance variation from any one SKS to another, even within the same country, that it can be a crap shoot on any given part.

Have a pinned barrel Chinese SKS with an unnumbered stock on it. Went to try a numbered stock off of a pinned barrel parts kit I bought on gunbroker and it won't fit unless I inlet the back of the stock to allow the trigger group to lock in. Couple years apart in build year and different arsenal.

Great. I will give it a whirl and see how it goes. Thanks for the help!
