Get them while you can. Most of these have been Sino-Soviet or "ghost guns" from what I've seen with fantastic metal condition, they're the same ones that Royal Tiger had.

When I look at ads like this I remember the good times when pristine carbines were so inexpensive, and wish I had bought a Chinese model back then.

I well remember the show tables piled high with $79 Chinese SKS rifles, I didn't buy a one of them, instead bought a Vietnam bringback, a POS Para conversion, and was gifted with a third. I am not sorry I didn't buy them as at the time I was otherwise engaged buying up inexpensive US milsurps, Enfields, and every other milsurp that wasn't nailed down. :)

Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Dang, too slow. If these are as good as the one I got from this lot, they will be great guns.

I ordered one of the last Chinese Military SKS's with the cracked stocks from Classic and was absolutely ecstatic to get a rare 1954 Soviet Izhevsk, all matching numbers except for the receiver cover. :o You never know.
