Whereas the Russian SKS rifle can appear in any of the world's battlegrounds, the Chinese SKS can really only appear in places where there was a lot of military aid by Mainland China. Most of the SKS rifles seen in movies about the Vietnam war are Chinese Type 56 carbines, but to have original Russian Type 45 Carbines is not historically implausible. The Soviet Union supplied ComBloc weapons in every hemisphere where there was a Marxist/communist presence.
The SKS rifle appears in the following films and television series used by the following actors:
