Discussion of the SKS platform of semi auto rifles
Preservation forum, please no altered military surplus rifles or discussions on altering in this forum. Please read the rules at the top of each forum.
Seen that we just got a nice new SKS forum. Figured I haven't posted these up here yet so why not. Both the Yugoslav m59/66A1s are G series and are great rifles. The middle one needs a new firing pin retaining pin as the thin piece that goes over the extractor spring broke off The chinese one is the rifle im trying to sell to a buddy... if he gets back to me before the next gunshow. If he doesn't then im bringing it a long. Not gonna miss out on a rifle because he's letting grass grow under his feet.

Why you selling your Chinese SKS Target? I remember you posting that one some time ago , nice collection
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Now that is a real nice looking Chinese made "Paratrooper"as they call them. Madeonly for US import, but demand for them has driven the prices
up. To try and imitate one of these,the Bubba Boys are cutting off good rifles to copy these. Unless you are making some good money off off it, I would keep
that rifle.
The only milsurps I have ever parted with went to friends as gifts so they are still in the family so to speak. Russell's right, you gonna miss that rifle, not today, or even next week, but years from now when they sell for a grand......

Ive got the bayonet but I dont have it on as it didint come with it. Would it be legal to even put that on it or would the BATF consider it "building" and violating 922? Also gonna throw in a chest rig for it.
I'm just not a fan, ill get another chinese sks someday but hopefully one with a normal length barrel.
martin08 wrote:$350 would be a fair asking price to start. Without the bayonet, someone might beat you down by $25 or $30.
I happen to know that little shop where I found that Swede, has two at least of Chinese para bayonets. I'd be surprised if he asked me for more that 5 or 10
each. Going to drive down there shopping again a week from this Saturday.
I sold a Para last month for $425 and the guy that bought it was happy to pay that. $350, like Martin said would be a good "starting" price. You will miss that para though. I know I do.
Every rifle I've let go of I've later regretted. You'll do the same.

Target, Drago is correct. That gun is worth more.You have all the accessories included. They are in very high demand. Not worth as much
perhaps to collectors per say because of old day prices, but your $350 is rock bottom end. I would start at $450 and bargain.
If I had $350 extra this minute, I would try to buy and pay the shipping to here.
